Photo Gallery of Hybrid Pickup Trucks

The Phoenix Motorcar Sport Utility Truck is not a hybrid, but an all-electric vehicle that offers a 1,000 pounds of payload capacity, 120 horsepower performance capable of 0-60 mph in less than 10 seconds, and top speeds of 95 mph. The announced price tag is $45,000. The vehicle platform—all the metal, glass, and components, except for an engine and fuel system—is supplied by Ssangyong, Korea’s fourth largest automaker. (Ssangyong doesn’t sell cars in the United States). The rechargeable batteries are supplied by Altair Nanotechnology, and the vehicle integration is completed by Boshart Engineering—although the relationship between Phoenix and Boshsart has run into legal problems, which could jeopardize the widespread marketing of the vehicle.
