Screenless GPS: Slate Auto says, "Remember the road atlas"
What’s more fitting than a spiral-bound map for a bare-bones two-door pickup?
Slate Auto, a startup, appears to be aware of a current trend, according to <source>. The company offers an affordable electric truck with only the essentials, allowing owners to manage everything else themselves, all at a starting price under $25,000. Slate does not include an embedded infotainment system in their truck. The dashboard features a small digital display for speed and range, a backup camera in reverse, and two USB-C ports for power.
Slate's "Screenless GPS" is their solution to getting lost, a spiral-bound road atlas, according to the OEM. Slate believes that familiar devices should suffice for navigation, just as they did for previous generations.
