KOSCIUSKO COUNTY, Ind.--- The brand-new electric truck company, Slate Auto, opened its doors to community leaders Thursday, providing a sneak peek of the factory that will produce the Jeff Bezos-backed company’s first official line of customizable electric vehicle (EV) trucks.
"Who could come in and fIll up a 1.5 million square foot plant? Slate auto," said Warsaw Mayor Jeff Grose.
Grose expressed his delight at the nearly $400 million investment by Slate, building their very first EV truck factory in Kosciusko County, just outside Warsaw.
"It won't be telephone books and magazines, it's going to be an electric car that's affordable," Grose said.
