As early as 2019, Tesla released its first electric pickup truck Cyberruck, because of its "cyberpunk" style, Cybertruck received more than 250,000 orders in less than a month, and 500,000 orders in 3 months, becoming Tesla's hottest model.
The time has come to 2022, Apple's mobile phones have been updated from iPhone 11 to iPhone 13, Tesla's Cyberruck has not yet been mass-produced delivery, and even some time ago Musk said that Cyberruck will be postponed to 2023 before it can officially go on sale. The constant ticket hopping makes consumers miserable, and even numbs to Cyberruck.
Just recently, a design drawing of a patent design of the domestic Sany Heavy Industry was exposed on the Internet, which is an electric pickup truck. Its appearance resembles Tesla Cybertruck, very "cyberpunk" flavor, the overall design of the body is modern, the ground clearance is very high, making the vehicle look very domineering.
Many people may not have heard of Sany Heavy Industry, Sany Heavy Industry is our country's commercial vehicle giant, established in 1994, is the first private enterprise listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in the domestic construction machinery industry, is the top three players in the global construction machinery, its construction machinery products domestic market share reached 25.6%, the status in the industry is extremely high, and it also ranks 468th in the 2021 Forbes global ranking.
In recent years, Sany Heavy Industry has continued to approach new areas such as renewable energy, passenger cars, housing, and fire protection, and this electric pickup truck is the first model they have entered the field of electric passenger cars.
As can be seen from the patent diagram, the front face of the vehicle as a whole is very simple, and it has a very mechanical industrial feel, and the vertical running lights on the left and right sides and the thin high beams make the vehicle look futuristic. The four letters of SANY in the middle of the front face are the brand name of Sany Heavy Industry, these letters are not simply attached to the vehicle, but can shine, and the design is more clever.
Coming to the side, the hidden door handle of this pickup truck, the overall line is very sharp, with its high ground clearance, making this pickup truck look particularly hard. Dimensions and the vehicle's trunk volume are not yet known, but the trunk looks short and may not be ideal.
In addition to the design of an electric pickup truck, consumers should be most concerned about the power, because only strong power can make the electric pickup truck easily cope with various road conditions and carry goods.
However, unfortunately, there is no news about the power of this car at present, but in the view of the Travel Bureau, because of the long-term cooperative relationship between Sany Heavy Industry and the Ningde era, this electric pickup truck of Sany Heavy Industry will most likely be equipped with the power battery of the Ningde era. The timing of the vehicle's appearance is also a mystery at the moment, but it will not be too long ago, and it is even possible to launch it earlier than Tesla's Cyberruck.
Pickup trucks have been very popular in the U.S. market, electric pickup trucks are more concerned, in addition to Tesla's Cyberruck, Ford, Hummer, Chevrolet and other companies have launched electric pickup trucks, in the United States have set off a lot of waves, but in China, pickup trucks are limited due to various restrictions, even in the era of electrification, there are few car companies involved in the field of pickup trucks.
It is worth noting that on April 25, the government issued an opinion on the release of consumption and is studying further relaxation of the restrictions on pickup trucks entering the city. At the same time, from May 1, the "General Technical Conditions for Multi-purpose Trucks" has also been implemented in China, and for the first time, a sound, standardized and scientific technical standard has been formulated for pickup trucks, emphasizing the passenger and multi-purpose attributes of pickup trucks. These policies are all releasing the potential of China's pickup truck market, and Sany Heavy Industry's electric pickup truck came at the right time.
