Nothing From Ford And Tesla: An Electric Pickup Truck Sold On China’s Alibaba Site Is Catching A Lot Of Attention Online

When it comes to an electric pickup truck, the first thought that comes to mind is the amazing Ford F-150 or even the futuristic Cybertruck from Tesla. However, a mini electric pickup truck sold on the Alibaba site in China has been drawing attention online. Unlike its North American “competitors,” the Chinese electric vehicle is called CLZKC-009. 

However, the electric pickup truck, unlike the Tesla and Ford, does not cost a fortune. It can be purchased for U$ 2,000, around R$ 10,000. However, the electric pickup truck sold on Alibaba is only 3.5 meters long, with a payload capacity of 400 KG. 

The electric vehicle is produced by Jiangsu Ruipaiying Import And Export Co, a Chinese company that has created other very different models to trade online. The company equipped the electric pickup with a 3,000w motor, capable of reaching up to 45 km/h. With SLA or Li-ion batteries, the vehicle has a range that varies between 70km and 130 km.

More Details Of The Electric Pickup Truck 

The 12-inch wheels have hydraulic disc brakes. However, as the small electric pickup truck from Alibaba only reaches 45 km/h, it is certain that they will take a long time to wear out. In addition to all this, it comes with some extra features, such as power windows, wipers, a rearview camera, electric heater, and much more.

Additionally, the electric pickup truck can also come with air conditioning included. The company has also made available a gas-powered extender package that can turn the vehicle into a hybrid car. Buyers will have several color options available. Watch the video of the pickup truck below.

However, bringing it to Brazil can be quite complex. Besides all the taxes and bureaucracies from the government that will make the price skyrocket, it is also necessary to pay for shipping from China to Brazil. The vehicle would also need to be approved for all safety criteria.
