Exterior Look
The truck’s exterior seems very neat and clean with minimal exterior elements used. The front has C Shape LED lights which reminds of Ford F-Series. We got a flush door handle and Camera pod(as an ORVM) at the side that brings quite a sleek side look to the truck.
Edison future offers the option of solar panel roofs on both pick-up truck and delivery van. which is estimated to add an extra 15-25 miles during sunny days.
Interior
unlike the Exterior the interior is very futuristic and fresh. Pick-up has a seating capacity of 6 people. because we didn’t get to see a center console in it. due to which 3 three people can comfortably sit in the front.
There’s no button or dial to access the interior features. but instead, there’s a massive 17.5-inch touch screen infotainment display. and two dedicated displays for the side camera located near A-pillars. also there’s drives display along with a heads-up display that shows various vehicle information while on the go.
