REALLY Quick Charge: Slate Auto CCO talks affordability, flexibility, and more

About this episode

Jeremy Snyder discusses Slate Auto's new affordable electric pickup and its features.

On this really quick episode of Quick Charge , Slate Auto's Chief Commercial Officer Jeremy Snyder believes his new truck is the right size and price to drive fleet adoption AND fandom. We only had a few minutes with Jeremy, and Slate is nearly ready for prime time! Slate Auto had a well-optioned, work-focused version of their upcoming compact electric pickup on display at ACT Expo 2026. The preproduction truck was fitted with ladder racks and wrapped in white vinyl, and some of the staff on hand even teased a utility-style "van" body. Regardless of which bodystyle you choose, Slate will offer its affordable trucks with a choice of two US-made SK On nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery packs – the base model gets 52.7 kWh and a 150 mile range while more upscale trucks get an 84.3 kWh battery with up to 240 miles of range. The two battery will be the only Slate option that gets installed at the factory (the rest of the available options will be installed by the "dealer" at the point of sale).
