Bargain electric ute incoming: Nissan plotting baby electric pick-up truck that could see Surf-Out concept come to life

AutoExec Summary
Nissan plans to introduce an affordable all-new battery-electric pick-up truck that will be smaller than its current combustion-powered Navara. The new truck is expected to maintain Nissan’s presence in the US pick-up segment and capitalize on the demand for small trucks. The truck will be priced at less than US$40,000 and is not expected to rival other battery-powered trucks. There is some confusion over whether the truck will be fully electric or if a hybrid version will also be offered. No specific timing has been provided for the release of the new Nissan truck, but it is expected to be inspired by the 2021 Nissan Surf-Out concept.

Brands mentioned: Nissan, Ford, Hyundai, Rivian, Tesla, Renault
