The Pickman, the latest all-electric farm vehicle from Electric Wheels, is described as a compact pick-up reminiscent of a farm cult classic, the Suzuki Jimny.

Suitable for a wide range of duties, including rolling out electric fencing to a quiet alternative to a diesel machine for farm transport, as a load-carrying vehicle, the Pickman can transport up to 500kg on its bed, with a similar towing capacity. A four-door model is available.

Fully equipped with LED lighting, reversing camera, power steering, a USB charger, a roof rack with lights and an infotainment system with Bluetooth connectivity. Its dual 7.5kW and 3kW motors deliver 4wd, a top speed of 64km/hr (40mph) and a range of up to 112km (70 miles) from one charge.

Four machines are available to demo this summer, and the company expects to fully launch the vehicle early 2024. The anticipated retail price will be £20,000-£22,000 (+ VAT) depending on model specification.
