It looks like SLATE has pathetic EV efficiency. (and a rant).

Note that the bed is integrated to the cab. In a frame truck the bed is attached to the frame and then there is about an inch gap between the bed and the cab which is also attached to the frame.

The Scout Terra is body on frame with the bed integrated into the cab (I think). There is a vertical reveal in the bodywork that makes the bed look like it is separate.

The De Dion in the Slate is a solid rear axle. But not a live rear axle in the sense that it drives the wheels.
I stand corrected. I saw"solid axle" as traditional solid axle.

Does it need to have a solid rear axle to be a truck?
Definitely not. If so, the Slate Truck isn't a truck qualifies.​

FTFY 😀
