Pre-production pack. Slate Auto has not named a cell supplier, has not published nominal voltage or cooling details, and has not released warranty terms as of April 2026.

Charging architecture supports up to 120 kW DC fast charging and an 11 kW Level 2 onboard charger, with a NACS port that is compatible with Tesla's Supercharger network. Slate quotes a 20% to 80% DC session of roughly 30 minutes; that figure is a peak-throughput estimate, not a real-world average across temperature and pack state.
News
Low
Federal EV tax credit no longer applies. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act terminated the $7,500 credit on September 30, 2025, before Slate began deliveries. State and local incentives may still apply.
