Published at : 23 Dec 2025

Join Ginny Buckley for an exclusive first look at the all-new Slate pick-up, a budget EV that could shake up the entire segment. With Amazon stepping into the EV arena, the industry is watching closely: is this the moment everything changes?
In this walkaround, Ginny explores the design, capability and tech that set the Slate apart. From its clever cargo solutions to its futuristic in-cab interface powered by Alexa, the Slate promises to blend toughness with next-gen intelligence.
Is Amazon’s entry into electric pick-ups a genuine game-changer, or just another tech giant testing the waters? Ginny breaks down what matters from range to charging and asks whether this EV is built for work, adventure, or both.
