Seems like its more conventional than the GM Bright drop stepvan, but an awful lot smaller, Im surprised GM didnt win the contract for the new USPS van instead we have Oshkosh.... making even more unreliable products w/ no delivery dates in sight....

I think these things need to have the same tow capacity and batteries as the Hummer EV / Silverado to justify being on market while remaining around like $50-65K usd to be viable

Wow... Range and charging speed (which are actually important for businesses) are already extremely outdated (vs other brands) and it hasn't even been launched yet!

For reference:
Ford's is 56 kWh charging at a maximum of 87 kW.
BYD E-VALI is 126 kWh charging at a maximum of 188 kW.

Traditional brands are far far behind in EVs, that's for sure.
