Telo’s electric MT1 mini-truck gets a new preproduction prototype
Telo has received “over 5,000” preorders.
The San Carlos, California-based startup recently closed a $5.4 million funding round and is working with bespoke manufacturing partner Aria Group (which has built EV restomods including for companies like Everrati) to enter the next development phase towards the final mini-truck. The company said they have over 5,000 preorders for the mini-truck, which is now known as the Telo MT1, that “represents over $250M+ in customer commitments.” The EV was first revealed in 2023 and showed off a clever modular design where the truck cab can open for more bed space, or enclosed like a van. And co-founder and CTO Forrest North, who previously founded motorcycle company Mission Motors, is helping build the MT1’s battery technology.
