I can only say… this is a game changing technology.

I can’t be the only one that wants an electric van for a camper conversion, right? Like the BrightDrop EV400 that was described. If Rivian made something like that with 400-mi range, would be a game changer for #VanLife.

There's bound to be a lot of people that would live that lifestyle if they could.

100%. I am just waiting until something is available and will sell my ProMaster conversion and start my next project. Really hoping for 4wd with sufficient range. Range appears to be the issue. The most I have seen coming on the market is the Fiat Ducato EV which has >200mi of range in the largest pack

Do we know if they are 4WD? Seems like the common skateboard would dictate that they are. But also seems like maybe overkill for city delivery vans?

I would almost certainly bet they are using only 2 motors there seems to be no need for 4. These are likely to be vehicles of "bare minimums" in most places - not that that means cheap, it just means spending money only where it matters and 4WD/4 motors seems like a very unneeded expense. I believe it's been stated that the skateboard can be run in many configurations from 4 motors to 2 or even other variants
