TELO, a Silicon Valley electric van and truck startup, has released a configurator for its new vehicles, which feature rather odd design and lower than expected base price.

For starters, TELO is focusing on a truck with maximum usable space and says it will be able to offer cargo capacity on par with today's midsize pickup trucks, such as the Toyota Tacoma, for example.

It is also known that the TELO will get a fully controllable chassis. To date, the company has racked up about 3,700 pre-orders, with a down payment of just $152 per copy.

The TELO configurator is quite simple with only 3 options to choose from. The company says it will add more options and accessories over the next few months, so this isn't all, it's just the beginning.

Most importantly, the TELO has a base price of $41,520. The electric car, specifically its base version, will have a single 300 hp electric motor, but a 500 hp dual-motor version will also be available. .s., with the more powerful option costing only $46,019.

The car will also be available with a choice of two traction battery options - 79 or 106 kWh and will have a range of up to 570 km. At the moment, the startup is not revealing any more details, but according to the preliminary requests, it is clear that there is interest in the car.
