Slate Auto's first truck will cost $24,590, according to The Autopian, who discovered the price of the incoming EV after it appeared to have been exposed in the code of the pre-order section of the automaker’s website.

We’ve been keeping an eye on the Slate Truck ever since we had a poke around one in April of last year at the reveal. In case you’ve forgotten, Slate is a new Amazon-backed automaker set to build what was then meant to be a sub-$20k electric pickup. The world’s become a different place since then, and the ‘sub’ part of that went bye-bye quick.

We still expected the Slate Truck to be fairly inexpensive, but we didn’t know just how much it will be until now, so long as this turns out to be accurate.

How does an EV end up being this affordable anyway? Slate’s whole deal is that the truck - with all of 201hp and up to 240 miles of range - is as bare-bones as it gets. If you want any amenities beyond air conditioning, it’s an a la carte purchase. Apart from keeping the price down, this allows buyers to configure the Slate Truck bit by bit into the vehicle they need, be it a two-row SUV or a pickup or anything in-between.

You can mess around with the Slate configurator yourself to see what we mean.

Slate has yet to verify this, though it has removed the offending line of code from the site. We’ll report back when we hear more.
