Tesla has been hyping up the prospect of an electric pickup truck for a long time (you're looking at an artist's rendering above), but when can you expect to see it? You might have a clearer idea. As part of a call for feedback, Elon Musk has promised that the pickup will be made "right after" the Model Y crossover arrives between 2019 and 2020. We'd take that commitment with a grain of salt (remember how Tesla expected widescale Model 3 deliveries to start in 2017?), but it at least gives you an idea of what the EV maker is shooting for.

    PS - your links are for a lack of an SUV with AWD. AWD is becoming more and more common in cars.

    I didn't see any other electric cars with AWD.

    Certainly Tesla is not on some pedestal, but is competing against gasoline cars and electric cars with FWD. Looks like you will have to go with gasoline. Maybe a hybrid?
