Marc Tarpenning, co-founder of Tesla Motors, has joined TELO Trucks as a board member, aiming to compete with the Tesla Cybertruck in the urban electric truck market. The TELO MT1, priced at $41,520, offers a compact design and functionality, appealing to city drivers with its ability to fit into tight parking spaces.
