The Slate Truck’s price may have leaked, starts at $24,950

Slate 电动皮卡价格疑似泄露，起售价 24,950 美元

One of the most hotly anticipated electric vehicles makes its formal debut next week. It’s the Blank Slate, a refreshingly simple pickup truck EV designed by Slate Auto, which is trying to take some of the soaring cost out of a new car with a back-to-basics approach that means even electric windows are an optional extra.

备受期待的电动汽车之一将于下周正式亮相。这就是由 Slate Auto 设计的“Blank Slate”，一款主打极简风格的电动皮卡。该公司试图通过回归基础的设计理念来降低新车高昂的成本，甚至连电动车窗都被列为了选配。

Of course, a crucial aspect of this pared-back approach is pricing. Plenty of people are attracted to the idea of a truck with a compact footprint, no infotainment system or embedded modem, and the option to upconvert it later into an SUV or fastback. In the abstract, at least, people aren’t going to jump at the prospect of a truck with 150 miles (241 km) of range if it costs too much.

当然，这种精简方案的关键在于定价。许多人被这款皮卡的理念所吸引：小巧的车身尺寸、没有车载娱乐系统或内置调制解调器，且未来还可以选择将其改装成 SUV 或溜背车型。至少在理论上，如果价格过高，人们是不会对一款续航里程仅为 150 英里（约 241 公里）的皮卡买账的。

When Slate broke cover in 2025, it was targeting a price of around $20,000, assuming the $7,500 IRS clean vehicle tax credit would remain in effect, but it was abolished later that year. Well, if a leak on the Slate website earlier is to be believed, the starting price for that standard range truck will be just $24,950.

当 Slate 在 2025 年首次亮相时，其目标价格约为 20,000 美元，前提是当时 7,500 美元的美国国税局（IRS）清洁能源汽车税收抵免政策依然有效，但该政策在当年晚些时候被废除了。不过，如果 Slate 网站早些时候泄露的信息可信，那么这款标准续航版皮卡的起售价将仅为 24,950 美元。

The price was live for several hours earlier today, and screenshots were posted to the Slate forums, along with some updated specifications. These include a slightly less powerful electric motor for the rear wheels—now 181 hp (135 kW) instead of 201 hp (150 kW), but a tow rating that’s been doubled to 2,000 lbs (907 kg).

该价格在今天早些时候曾短暂出现在网站上几个小时，随后被网友截图发布到了 Slate 论坛，同时曝光的还有一些更新后的规格参数。其中包括后轮电机的功率略有下调——从 201 马力（150 kW）降至 181 马力（135 kW），但牵引能力翻倍至 2,000 磅（907 kg）。

That pricing and those specs are gone from the Slate website, but we’ll have official pricing and a first-ride impression on June 24.

目前，这些价格和规格信息已从 Slate 官网撤下，但我们将在 6 月 24 日获得官方定价及首次试乘体验。
