RANGE BOOST, COMPLETE.

People wanted more range, so we dug in and revamped the battery. The projected range went from an estimated 150 miles up to an estimated 205 miles.1 The Truck starting price stayed under $25,000.2

Our battery is built to last, too. Engineered for fast charging, rigorously tested, designed to hold up to repeated daily charging, and backed by best-in-class 10 year/110,000 mile warranty.4

We can also help you get a home charger installed in your garage or driveway. The only thing missing? The Slate itself. That’s where your preorder comes in.
