Though far from reality right now (funding is still not fully secured), Atlis says it hopes to launch the XT sometime in 2020. No pricing information is available at this time though.

FWIW, I've towed a utility trailer similar to this with my LEAF, for short distances:stevegerber wrote:Yeah, some reinforcement at the back of the cab would be important. I think a small electric truck like this would be super useful for a casual do-it-yourselfer like me. I don't usually need to haul a lot of weight, mostly it's awkward lumber or a few sheets of plywood or dirty garden materials like mulch or plants.
That's might be tricky given that the e-NV200 isn't sold nor leased in the US. We have no idea where the OP lives since the location field isn't required.garsh wrote:If you don't already have a particular wrecked Leaf in mind to start with, then you might want to try looking for a wrecked e-NV200 van instead.
That is what I wanted to do. In my case, I planned to mount the bed high enough to clear the onboard charger. I would have included a hinged panel to access the charger, coolant lines, electrical cables, and service disconnect. If you don't already have a project car, it would certainly be easier to use a 2013 or later. In any case, you need to make provisions to access the service disconnect (under the removable cover in front of the rear seat).stevegerber wrote:What I'm imagining is something a little like this:

So the front half of the Leaf would become a 2 seat cab and the back would just be an aluminum utility bed with removable sides for the bed. I'd want the bed to be as light as possible most of the time.
You might want to give EVWest or Polykup a phone call, if for no other reason that to bounce some ideas around. Looks like you are in Virginia, Polykup is in New Jersey so unfortunately not exactly right next doorstevegerber wrote:What I'm imagining is something a little like this:
