Electric Pickup Trucks: The Next Frontier of EVs_NEWS from Test Miles on Vimeo.

As electric vehicles (EVs) charge full-speed ahead, a new frontier emerges: electric pickup trucks. These beasts, which once guzzled gallons of petrol, are now poised to conquer the electric highway, promising robust performance, lower maintenance, and eco-friendly credentials. But are they really the game-changer automakers claim? Buckle up as we explore the electric pickup revolution, from the pioneers to the up-and-comers. Why Electric Pickup Trucks Matter Electric pickups aren’t just a fad; they’re a practical evolution. With electric motors generating immense torque, these trucks are tailor-made for hauling, towing, and off-road adventures. Their hefty frames can house substantial battery packs, offering impressive ranges—many exceeding 300 miles per charge. For fleet buyers, the allure is clear: lower maintenance costs and reduced fuel expenses. Plus, their capability to power worksite tools directly from the truck's battery adds another layer of practicality. Given that commercial trucks clock more road hours than typical cars, their transition to electric can significantly slash greenhouse gas emissions. The Electric Trailblazers Leading the charge are three notable entries. First on the scene was Rivian’s R1T in 2022, an innovative truck featuring a unique Gear Tunnel for extra storage. Following closely was the GMC Hummer EV Pickup, a behemoth known for its extreme capabilities and party tricks like the Crab Walk. Not to be outdone, Ford rolled out the F-150 Lightning, a versatile model spanning from basic work trucks to luxury-loaded variants. What's on the Horizon? 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV Chevrolet’s 2024 Silverado EV promises up to 400 miles per charge and a whopping 754 horsepower. With a Wide Open Watts mode that zips from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, it’s as quick as it is powerful. This Ultium-platform truck will offer a Crew Cab design and versatile features like a frunk and a midgate for transporting long items. Ram Revolution EV The Ram 1500 Revolution concept made its splash at CES, boasting a 350-500 mile range and unique elements like a three-row cabin and Shadow Mode, where the truck follows the driver. Production is set for 2024, potentially featuring a range extender—a first among mainstream electric trucks. GMC Sierra EV GMC’s second electric truck, the Sierra EV Denali Edition 1, aims for an early 2024 debut. Mirroring the Silverado’s specs but wrapped in a more traditional guise, it offers 754 horsepower, 9,500 pounds of towing capacity, and lightning-fast charging capabilities. Canoo Pickup The Canoo Pickup, a standout with its forward-control design and compact yet spacious build, faced an uncertain future as the company pivoted to government contracts. Its 500+ horsepower and 200-mile range made waves, but production timelines remain elusive. Volkswagen Scout EV Reviving the iconic Scout name, Volkswagen plans a 2026 debut for its off-road-ready electric pickup. This American-made, 300-horsepower truck aims for a 400-mile range and a $40,000 starting price. Toyota Electric Tacoma Rumors suggest an electric Tacoma could be on the horizon for 2024. This smaller, more affordable pickup would fill a niche below pricier models like the F-150 Lightning, appealing to budget-conscious buyers seeking a rugged EV. The Contrarians While the big names charge ahead, several startups offer exciting, if uncertain, prospects. Companies like Alpha Motors with their Wolf series and EdisonFuture with their EF1-T showcase innovative designs and capabilities, yet their market entries remain speculative. The Bottom Line Electric pickup trucks symbolize a significant shift in automotive technology, merging utility with sustainability. As legacy automakers and bold startups vie for dominance, consumers stand to benefit from a diverse, competitive market. Whether they become the backbone of commercial fleets or the darling of adventure enthusiasts, electric pickups are set to redefine what these workhorses can do—one silent, torque-filled mile at a time.

The legendary Toyota Land Cruiser SUV was discontinued in America after the 2021 model year, leaving a big gap in Toyota's lineup. But the automaker has now confirmed the Land Cruiser nameplate will return to the US market for 2025, albeit with a different mission than before. Here's what we know so far about Toyota's plans for the reborn Land Cruiser in America: Điểm nổi bật The 2025 Land Cruiser will be smaller and more off-road capable than the last US model. It's expected to share underpinnings with the upcoming 2024 Lexus GX SUV. A V6 turbo engine and hybrid powertrain are likely. The new Land Cruiser will fill the role of a midsize off-roader, while the Lexus LX retains the full-size luxury niche. Toyota is repositioning Land Cruiser into a new segment to avoid overlap with the Sequoia SUV. Downsizing for Better Off-Road Ability The last-generation Land Cruiser was a large SUV targeted at luxury buyers looking for utility. But it didn't have the hardcore off-road talents of rivals like the Jeep Wrangler. According to reports, Toyota aims to change that with the 2025 Land Cruiser. Rather than directly replacing the old model, Toyota will downsize the new Land Cruiser so it competes more directly against the Wrangler and Ford Bronco. To achieve this, the 2025 Cruiser is expected to ride on the same platform as the upcoming 2024 Lexus GX. That means it will be smaller and lighter than before, with a tighter turning radius for navigating rocky trails. Benefits of the smaller size: Better approach, departure, and breakover angles for off-roading Lower curb weight improves traction and maneuverability Shorter wheelbase allows tighter turns on trails More capability to fit down narrow tracks By leaving the full-size luxury niche to the Lexus LX, Toyota can reinvent Land Cruiser as a dedicated off-roader. Shared Underpinnings with Lexus GX Toyota's plan is believed to involve badge engineering - taking the next-gen Lexus GX and selling it as a Land Cruiser. This strategy makes sense since the Lexus GX already has strong off-road credentials thanks to its body-on-frame construction. Elements expected to be carried over from the GX: Body-on-frame platform (TNGA-F) Available torque-vectoring rear differential Upgraded suspension with height-adjustable air springs Skid plates and underbody armor By equipping the new Land Cruiser with the GX's hardware, Toyota can imbue it with serious 4x4 capabilities. Powertrain Options: V6, Turbo, and Hybrid To power the downsized Cruiser, Toyota has two compelling engine options: Turbo V6 (expected): 3.4L twin-turbo gas V6 349 hp / 479 lb-ft torque Same engine as upcoming Lexus GX Hybrid V6 (optional): 3.5L V6 with rear electric motor Increased torque for off-roading Improved fuel efficiency The V6 turbo will deliver robust acceleration for conquering steep terrain, while the hybrid will balance power with efficiency. Toyota may also offer a 4-cylinder turbo in lower trims, like that in the Tacoma pickup. But serious off-roaders will gravitate to the V6. Positioning Change Frees Up Design Opportunity With the Lexus LX filling the role of a luxury full-size SUV, Toyota has a chance to take Land Cruiser in a new stylistic direction. Expect rugged, aggressive styling cues inspired by concepts like the Compact Cruiser EV. Design elements could include: Prominent skid plates and armor Short front and rear overhangs Flared wheel arches covering big all-terrain tires Safari-style roof racks and lights The interior will also take on a more purposeful look, with rubberized floors, waterproof surfaces, and aux switches for off-road accessories. New Role for 4Runner in Toyota's Lineup The return of the Land Cruiser will shake up Toyota's SUV lineup. One result could be the 4Runner moving to fill the role of a Bronco/Wrangler fighter. With

the Land Cruiser taking over midsize family-hauler duties, Toyota could reinvent 4Runner into a compact hardcore off-roader. This might involve: Moving to a ladder-frame chassis Increased ground clearance and approach angles Focus on rock crawling over cargo space The revived Land Cruiser allows Toyota to better differentiate between its SUV offerings. Each model can be targeted at a more precise audience than before. FAQs When will the new Land Cruiser be revealed? We expect Toyota to unveil the 2025 Land Cruiser sometime in 2024 as a 2025 model year vehicle. Will it be called the Land Cruiser Prado in the US? Toyota may drop the Prado name and just call it Land Cruiser. Prado denoted a smaller midsize model not originally sold here. What will the new Land Cruiser cost? Pricing is unconfirmed, but expect it to start around $55,000 - $65,000 for the base trim. The top TRD Pro trim could exceed $70,000. How capable will it be off-road? With a ruggedized version of the Lexus GX platform, the new Cruiser should be highly capable on trails. Its smaller size will also improve breakover and departure angles. When will Toyota reveal details? 2024 is likely the soonest we'll learn full details, as the Land Cruiser isn't expected until the 2025 model year. Stay tuned for updates. The Takeaway The revived Land Cruiser won't be a continuation of the last-gen model. Instead, Toyota is reimagining it as a more focused midsize SUV tailored for off-roading rather than luxury. By sharing a platform with the rugged Lexus GX, adopting potent powertrains, and taking on a new design direction, the 2025 Land Cruiser could be a serious contender in the 4x4 segment. Toyota is playing to the nameplate's heritage and should entice serious off-roaders. #Wiack #Car #CarInsurance #CarRental #CarPrice #AutoLoans

Toyota recalls certain 2023 model year vehicles for injury risks

Toyota Motor Corp. said it is recalling certain 2023 model year Toyota Corolla, Corolla Cross, Corolla Cross hybrid, Highlander, Highlander hybrid, Tacoma, Lexus RX and RX hybrid and 2024 model year NX and NX hybrid vehicles. Toyota spokesperson Josh Burns on Wednesday said about 118,000 vehicles are included, “with approximately 110,000 of those in the U.S.” In affected vehicles, the spiral cable assembly in the steering column may lose electrical connection on the circuit controlling the driver’s airbag. If loss of electrical connection occurs, the airbag warning light will illuminate, and the driver’s airbag may not deploy in a crash. Vehicles will not comply with certain federal motor vehicle safety requirements as a result, which may increase risk of injury to the driver in a crash. Toyota declined to comment on injuries, accidents or deaths that could have resulted from the safety issue. For all recalled vehicles, Toyota and Lexus dealers will inspect the serial number of the spiral cable and replace it with a new cable if necessary. Both procedures are available at no cost to customers. Toyota will notify all affected owners about the issue by early September 2023.

2024 Toyota Tacoma Electric Redesign

2024 Toyota Tacoma Electric – Toyota has recently introduced the concept vehicles that represent its next generation of electric vehicles. One looks like a mid-size truck that bears a striking resemblance to the Tacoma. Although the brand has not confirmed whether the model will be called Tacoma EV or when it could be launched in the United States, it could be an exciting prospect.

2024 Toyota Tacoma Electric

The current Tacoma is only available as a gas truck. It doesn’t have the diesel we’ve seen in competitors like the Chevy Colorado, and it doesn’t offer the fuel economy benefits of smaller vehicles like the Ford Maverick. Although Toyota invested heavily in hydrogen fuel cell electric cars, it is relatively late when it comes to electric vehicles.

While the notion of electrified pickup would not be entirely surprising, a Tacoma EV would represent a significant deviation from past tacoma generations. Just for reference, the larger Tundra pickup will be adding a hybrid variant for the first time called i-FORCE MAX for 2024. It’s unclear if a hybrid tachoma is also on the cards.
