First Sight! $30k Midsize EV Pickup Prototype

You

Thanks. I had to make some educated guesses on certain aspects of the body side and front end so I just sketched up what I would want it to look like. I don't believe I'm there yet, but it's closer to what the truck will look like than these renderings that just take a maverick and seal off the front grille.

You should work for Ford. That’s a sweet rendering!

Thanks . I actually wanted to be a car designer for Ford for much of my life. Unfortunately car design schools are insanely expensive, like 30 grand tuition a semester. But I'm trying to teach myself some skills like sketching, AI, and 3d modeling and building up my portfolio. We'll see if it goes anywhere.

Awesome AI job!


2X, Rad'est stock vehicle to have ever entered the US market, if it looks like that!
The deal breaker for me may be the high beltline and outward visibility limitations.

Thanks guys. I think the actual truck will be a little taller and less sporty than that, but it's in the ball park. I was also told by someone who saw it that the nose is a little lower, so I might need to make some tweaks.

there's that concept art shown briefly in the into video on the unicorn site. Vertical slits for headlights, fastback b-pillar and chiseled fenders

These? HRG

Many will be disaappointed when they find out that "stylish" paint job isn't an option...

Just came across this Geely RD6 pickup from China. Comes in hybrid or full EV. 207" long. Seems very similar to what the Ford EV pickup will be

I think I read somewhere that the “EV Skunkworks” in California were studying the Chinese EV’s?

Hey, what goes around comes around. I’m assuming the production facilities for the new EV line of vehicles is in North America…

I'm sure they are studying Chinese EVs. Jim Farley talks about Chinese EVs all the time. The new Ford EVs are using licensed battery tech from a Chinese company.
