this is a free model kit i found on thingiverse  of the bezos backed SLATE  ev pick up which is like a 1/1 scale customizing model kit it has a bunch of different ways it can be built and if you want either diy or by a proffecional at a garage when originally annouced it was only going to under 20 thousand but after new law passed this year  that means they no longer have to sell it at a low price it now will be under 30 thousand it comes with no infortainment system no radio no speakers i comes only with a small lcd screen for the speedometer and battery meter  it is the a a bit longer and wider then the ford maverick truck as the blank slate bed is longer and wider then the mavericks bed 
this is the main build option whih comes with a dash mounted holder for your smart phone which acts as you radio and gps and there is also custom rims  and a optional ipad dash holder if you want a larger screen and optional blue tooth speakers that can sync to you phone to play your music or other audio through if you want a particual color or graphics on the body you can get a wrap put on the base rims are plain black steel rims there is also optional bench seat instead of buckets and it comes standard with rear wheel drive with a single gear electric motor and power steering  power locks and ac/heating and a frunk 
the  side windows on a standard are crank powered and the side mirrors will have to be adjusted by hand
