Slate Auto, the Jeff Bezos–backed startup behind the $28,000 EV pickup, has reportedly secured a production location for its accessory-friendly truck that will give the Ford Maverick a fully electric rival. We already knew the fledgling automaker planned to build the Slate EV at an existing factory in the US, and it seems as though that facility has been revealed. Citing public records, TechCrunch reported that Slate Auto will enter a lease in Warsaw, Indiana, at a former printing plant measuring more than 1.4 million square feet.
