SUMMARY

  • Tesla Cybertruck set for Q3 2023 deliveries, featuring 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds and 500-mile range
  • Stellantis unveils 2025 Ram 1500 REV, with a targeted range of up to 500 miles and a Q4 2024 release
  • GM reveals upgraded 2023 GMC Hummer EV 3X, boasting a 355-mile range and 8,500-pound towing capability

The EV world is buzzing with anticipation for Tesla's first-ever pickup truck, the Cybertruck. CEO Elon Musk has recently announced that deliveries are set to begin in the third quarter of 2023. This beast of a truck boasts a 0-60 mph acceleration in just 2.9 seconds and up to 500 miles of range on a single charge. Payload capacity? 3,500 pounds. Towing capability? Over 14,000 pounds.

Ford's F-150 Lightning has been ruling the roost as America's best-selling electric pickup since its launch in April 2022. But Tesla's Cybertruck isn't the only competition. Stellantis recently unveiled its all-electric 2025 Ram 1500 REV, with an optional large battery pack that matches Cybertruck's 500-mile range and surpasses the F-150 Lightning's 320-mile top range.

GM is also stepping up its game, hoping to boost sales of its GMC Hummer EV. The automaker has just unveiled the 2023 GMC Hummer EV 3X, featuring an estimated driving range of 355 miles on a full charge and a towing capability of 8,500 pounds. GM also debuted two new SUV models, the 2024 GMC Hummer EV Edition 1 and GMC Hummer EV 3X SUVs.

Pricing remains a mystery for many of these electric powerhouses, but one thing is certain: the electric pickup market is about to get a lot more exciting.
