Lordstown Motors has released new pictures that give us a better look inside their upcoming electric work truck. The Endurance’s most interesting feature is its tri-screen display which consists of a digital instrument cluster, an overview of the truck’s status, and an infotainment system that appears to have Apple CarPlay compatibility.
Lordstown didn’t provide details, but the
screens have a wide aspect ratio and are housed in a freestanding metallic
frame. Below, we can see what appears to be a cloth-wrapped dashboard and
rectangular air vents that reside above black trim.
We can also see cloth seats and a
leather-wrapped steering wheel with gloss black buttons. Elsewhere, there are
minimalist climate controls and a center console with what appears to be a
rotary shifter. Rounding out the highlights are metallic accents, two cup
holders and grab handles on the A-pillars.
Besides releasing interior pictures,
Lordstown revealed they have received 40,000 pre-orders for the Endurance. That
means pre-orders have doubled since the truck was unveiled in June. More
importantly, the pre-orders represent approximately US$ 2 (£ 1.6 / € 1.7) billion in
potential revenue if they all translate into sales.
The
Endurance is slated to go into production next year and feature four in-wheel
motors that produce a combined output of 600 hp. They should
enable the truck to accelerate from 0-96 km/h in 5.5 seconds and
travel more than 402 km on a single charge. The model has a base
price of US$ 52,500 – before incentives – and aims to become the world’s first all
electric commercial pickup.
