    I would love one of these, or one of the new Bollingers (if either makes it to production). The Rivian prototype recently had a pull out camping setup fitted in the triangle shaped cargo bin (between the rear cargo area and cab) for a camping show. You can probably find it online.

    Edit: Ok, found it.

    Yes yes yes! I love my ICE as much as the next guy. Love the roar of a V8 (only area of jealousy I have regarding my brothers LC200) and will be modding the exhaust on the D4 as soon as I can but there is so much to like about these. I've said to a few people I think my D4 will be the last fossil fuel car I own. I think it's a 10 year car and by that time one of these will be the go.

    I wouldn't mind one, expect for the goddam ugly front, the limited range and the lack of charging infrastrcture.

    Electric 4wds are going to be ridiculously capable, they will **** all over traditional 4wds; much like other forms of motorsport as well.

    Imagine slowly and quietly creeping up steep uneven slopes with perfectly controlled torque delivered to each wheel fully independently, it's going to be strange!

    If I bought one of these, part of my payload would be taken up with some roll out solar panels....

    I should have put a smiley emoji on my comment. Of course electric vehicles are the future but as things are now a jerry can is an easier option.
