As long as there's infrastructure to support it, and as long as capability isn't too greatly affected, electric pickup trucks should receive a relatively warm embrace from the public. It's not like trucks aren't stupid expensive already.

There are drawbacks, however. CNBC points to the price of EV batteries, which is still higher than GM would like, and which makes cost-effectiveness harder to transfer to the consumer. Lower battery prices will hopefully come in time, especially as more automakers jump on the electrification bandwagon.
