Toyota Shows What Its New EV Pickup Truck Could Look Like

• Toyota revealed a concept for an electric pickup truck with a four-door crew cab setup and a what appears to be a fairly short bed.
• Toyota didn’t provide many details on the truck, but it appears to be in between the mid-size Tacoma and full-size Tundra in terms of dimensions.
• With several electric trucks due to hit the market soon, we expect the Toyota EV truck to be revealed within the next year or so.

Toyota has stated previously that it plans to eventually build an electric pickup truck, and now we have further proof that this model could soon become reality. This concept car, revealed during Toyota’s presentation about its future EV plans, looks remarkably close to production and is exactly what you would imagine a Toyota EV truck to look like.

While we have very little information at this point—Toyota has not stated a name or any specifications for this truck—its appearance alone gives us a fair amount of information. It’s a four-door crew-cab configuration with what looks like a short bed, and it has chunky off-road tires that suggest it could be some sort of TRD Pro model. The styling is similar to what we’ve seen on the new Tundra, except for the blocked-off grille that is typical of EV front ends.

It’s also difficult to tell the size of this truck from these images, but it may fit in between the mid-size Tacoma and full-size Tundra in the lineup. That said, we wouldn’t be surprised if this truck is actually a preview of the next Tacoma, albeit in EV form. We’ll have to wait and see when Toyota decides to release more info on this future model, which could be within the next year or so.
