The compact pick-up truck industry is witnessing a notable trend toward Electric Vehicles (EVs). Electric compact pick-up trucks, which offer zero-emission driving, quick torque, and possibly lower running costs during their lifespan, are being developed by many automakers or are scheduled for release. For instance, in February 2024, Telo launched an electric mini pick-up truck as an active lifestyle solution. To improve driver and passenger safety, automakers are adding cutting-edge safety systems to compact pick-up trucks. This includes functions such as adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping assistance, automatic emergency braking, and pedestrian recognition systems.
An increasing number of connected technological elements and complex entertainment systems are seen in compact pick-up trucks. This includes Over-the-Air (OTA) software upgrades, Wi-Fi hotspots, GPS navigation, touchscreen displays, and smartphone connectivity (such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto).
