TELO Trucks makes intelligently designed, compact electric vehicle trucks for city living and weekend adventuring. As the demand for EV grows, so does the need for practical trucks suited to urban and suburban environments and active lifestyles. Our mission is to make sustainable mobility fit for purpose. We build right-sized — not super sized — trucks with space for people and gear beyond what meets the eye. Reimagining EV’s where big truck utility meets street smart technology, TELO is creating a more purposeful and responsible mobility future with less wasted space in vehicles, on our roads, and for the planet. TELO was founded by Jason Marks, who developed the test systems for the driver assistance safety features on five major United States’ automakers vehicle platforms, and Forrest North, who helped develop the first Tesla Roadster and founded one of the first electric motorcycles companies, Mission Motors. TELO partnered with world-renown designer, advisor and investor Yves Béhar and Fuseproject for the vehicle design.
