Lordstown will list on NASDAQ through a merger with DiamondPeak Holdings Corp. The EV maker has received more than 27,000 pre-orders for its Endurance electric pickup, primarily from commercial fleet customers.
Reminiscent of the classic Americana commercial spots the Detroit 3 have used for its pickups, the Lordstown Motors video shows the electric Endurance pickup performing work duties “in the wild.”
Fifteen states and the District of Columbia have signed an agreement pledging to develop a plan to eliminate diesel emissions by 2050.
While the Endurance launch event offered more big-picture proclamations than actual truck specs, Lordstown CEO Steve Burns pointed out one reason why an all-electric pickup will be so tantalizing for fleets.
Lordstown Motor Corp.’s CEO Steve Burns said preorders from commercial and fleet customers for the all-electric Endurance pickup exceed the company’s production capacity of 20,000 units for 2021.
The van would reportedly start production in late 2021 and be powered by GM’s new proprietary Ultium batteries.
