What is it? The flash of the young Via Motors line, the XTrux pickup is all about big: big truck, big tires and big performance and fuel-economy numbers.
What's hot? The XTrux is designed to be an 800-horsepower, 4-wheel-drive, high-performance pickup truck with up to 100-mpg fuel economy, depending on driving habits.
Should be interesting if this gets off the ground. You will only get 100 MPG if you stay on electric power, and recharge at home.
