The news came as a blow to General Motors, as the automaker was previously in talks with Rivian to jointly develop their own electric pickup, but the deal fell through as GM reportedly wanted exclusivity.

When the production version goes on sale in late 2020, it will boast a combined output of 754 hp and 826 lb-ft of torque thanks to four 197-hp electric motors on each wheel. 0-62 mph takes just three seconds, while 100 mph takes less than seven seconds.
Impressively, the launch model includes a 135-kWh battery pack delivering a driving range of 300 miles. Upgrading to a 180-kWh battery increases the range to 400 miles, while a lighter, short-range model with a 105-kWh battery pack will arrive around a year later.
