TELO MT1 2024– car dimensions: 3861 mm long, 1854 mm wide and 1702 mm high. Unladen weight is 1,996 kg. Braked towing is 3,629 kg.
The cabin seats five with a minimalist layout of natural fabrics, cork trim and cast aluminium. Dual roughly 13-inch displays handle gauges and infotainment, with physical buttons for climate and some controls. Front, side and rear cameras plus Level 1 ADAS bring adaptive cruise, lane keep, emergency brake assist and parking assist as standard.
The crew cab pairs a 60-inch bed with a folding midgate that extends length to 96 inches, enough for 4x8 sheets with the tailgate closed. An under-bed storage tunnel holds luggage or serves as a footwell for optional third-row seats.
Single-motor models carry up to 907 kg payload while dual-motor versions drop to about 771 kg. Braked towing reaches 3629 kg across versions after updates from earlier 2994 kg figures. Bed power outlets deliver up to 9.6 kW for tools.
Compact size suits tight sites and indoor work with quiet electric drive, while the midgate and tonneau cover support mixed people-and-gear duties.
The cabin uses natural fabrics, cork trim and aluminum accents with clean geometric patterns for a minimal practical feel. A glass roof brings in light and adds headroom while pedestal-mounted front seats free up rear foot space. Dual digital displays and physical climate buttons keep controls simple. It seats five adults in a space that matches larger crew cabs, with fully dropping windows and hidden storage for an open airy vibe.
All-electric with estimated 260 or 350 mile range
20-minute 20-80% DC fast charge

Remote diagnostics for most issues
Airbags plus sensors for collision prediction
Level 1 ADAS with cameras and parking aids
The MT1 runs fully electric on a choice of battery packs that deliver estimated ranges of 260 miles standard or 350 miles long-range. It supports fast charging that restores 20 to 80 percent in about 20 minutes and uses a NACS connector. Vehicle-to-home power is also planned.
A design with few moving parts keeps annual running costs low compared with gas trucks. Remote service handles most diagnostics without a shop visit, and third-party parts support is available. No fixed service interval is published yet.
Safety centers on a 14-inch crumple zone built to meet FMVSS standards, plus airbags and structural tech. Standard kit includes forward collision warning, parking sensors, multi-view cameras and Level 1 aids like lane keep, adaptive cruise and emergency braking. Crash-test scores are not yet available.
Living with the truck means easy city parking in a Mini-sized footprint while still hauling five people or extending the bed for long cargo. The compact size and quiet electric drive suit daily use and light work, with low energy use for keeping costs down.
