The pickup truck is the best-selling vehicle platform in America, but no electronic option was available… until now. The W-15 can go the first 80 miles on just electricity, but there is a gasoline generator that can keep charging the battery continuously to add an additional 310 miles of range. This truck can go 0-60 miles per hour in 5.5 seconds due to its 480 horsepower. This truck is based off the Chevrolet Silverado, but of course this is just the design of the truck.
