The GM EV Truck looks like it's similar in size to the Colorado...

GM says it's a full size truck. Probably just a scale thing, Hummer EV looks midsize until someone stands next to it.

Based on this, there's going to be a cheaper GMC EV truck as well.

A few people are tossing around the idea of a currently unused nameplate for a full size Chevrolet truck that still has quite a few fans for the EV truck...

Why do they insist on making electric vehicles so ugly. I don't get it, like its like they have to make all electric vehicles scream look at me I am an electric vehicle.

I think that is one reason Tesla is so popular, to me the Model S doesn't scream electric and that is what draws people into it.

The Model S has the same closed off grille the Chevrolet EV truck does.

7 million GMT-900 trucks/SUVs recalled due to Takata's bullshit.

That's true I can't figure out how to say what I want to say lol.

I guess I was trying to say why can't they make hybrids and EV's look like normal cars.

Because part of owning an EV is letting people know it. It's like being vegan.

Pretty much. Electric cars have also historically prioritized aerodynamics in order to eek out every last mile from the battery. That leads to odd shapes and design choices.
