Just saw some rumors about Gazelle, the Russian LCV (Light Commercial Vehicle) manufacturer, getting into the EV game with the GAZ-20. Apparently, it's a battery-electric version of their popular Gazelle van, with claims of 300+ km of range and a pretty affordable price tag. Anyone seen any official news or specs on this one?

I haven't seen much buzz on Gazelle's electric plans outside of Russia, but they do have an existing lineup of commercial vehicles that seem to be doing alright. I'd love to see some reviews or test drive experiences for the rumored GAZ-20 to get a better sense of its capabilities. Anybody seen anything substantial on this one?

"Hey guys, I just did some digging and it seems Gazelle's (GAZ-20) electric range is capped at 250 km on a single charge. I'm not sure if that's really competitive in the Russian EV market. Anyone know if they're planning on increasing the range anytime soon?"

"Y'all might've missed it, but Gazelle's got some legit potential. Their recent upgrades on the GAZ-20 are looking pretty sweet, with some impressive range and performance numbers. Anyone else got an eye on the Russian EV market?"

"Dude, Gazelle is actually an old Soviet-era Lada-based pick-up, not a brand new EV. Not sure what's going on here. Either way, I don't think Russia's got the chops to be in the EV game just yet."

"Hey guys, I just saw Gazelle announcing their new GAZ-20 EV model and I'm intrigued. They're touting a 500km range and a competitive price point, but I need more info on production numbers and charging infrastructure before I get on board. Does anyone have an update on their plans for expansion?"
