An independent field guide to the world’s pickups
Who builds them, where they come from, what powers them and roughly what they cost, from Detroit heavy-duty trucks to Chinese plug-in hybrids and Indian work pickups.
How to use it
- 1Start on the map. Every maker is pinned at its headquarters. Switch to “Where they’re sold” to see how many pickups each country gets, then open a country’s page.
- 2Narrow the field. Filter by powertrain, size, budget and the market you buy in. The map, the maker list and Browse all follow the same filters.
- 3Read one truck. Each model page leads with the starting price and four key numbers, then the full spec table and a short summary.
- 4Compare side by side. Add up to four trucks with + Compare. The best value in each numeric row is marked, and the page link can be shared.
Search from anywhere. Press / to jump to search. It looks across makers, models, countries and markets, and every word must match, so china ev finds electric pickups from Chinese makers.
Powertrain types
- ICE
- Internal combustion. Petrol or diesel engine only. The most common powertrain, with the widest choice of trims, cabs and beds.
- Hybrid
- Hybrid. An engine plus an electric motor. The battery charges itself while driving and can’t be plugged in.
- PHEV
- Plug-in hybrid. A larger battery you can charge, enough for short trips on electricity, with an engine for longer runs and towing.
- EREV
- Extended-range EV. Electric motors drive the wheels; the engine only generates electricity and never drives them directly.
- EV
- Battery electric. Battery only, no engine. Range and towing performance depend heavily on load and weather.
About the data
Prices are approximate. Each is a starting price converted to US dollars, usually for the cheapest trim in the truck’s main market. Taxes, incentives and local pricing vary widely, so treat them as a way to compare, not a quote. Other currencies are converted from USD at European Central Bank reference rates of 11 Nov 2026, refreshed with every site update.
Specs are best-case maximums. The most powerful engine, the highest tow rating and the highest payload often come from different trims, so no single truck on a forecourt will match every number.
“Sold in” means officially on sale. The country pages, the “Where they’re sold” map and the country filter list a pickup under a country when its maker sells it there through its own network. Grey imports don’t count. We track 31 countries so far, and launches or withdrawals can take a while to show up.
Local prices, sizes, fuel use and safety ratings carry their source. Where a model page shows a local list price, dimensions, fuel use, range or a crash-test rating, the source is linked beside it. Local list prices leave out on-road costs and dealer charges. Fuel use and range are official figures from different test cycles, so they aren’t comparable between cycles. Safety ratings apply to the versions and market each programme tested.
Reviews and videos are links, not endorsements. Some model pages link to reviews and comparison tests from independent outlets and channels. The editors choose them; nobody pays to be listed, and Pickup Atlas isn’t affiliated with the publishers.
Gaps are marked, not guessed. “—” means no reliable figure was found; “TBA” means the maker hasn’t announced it yet.
The dataset was last compiled in November 2026. Each model page shows when it was last verified and links to the maker’s site. Spotted a mistake? Use Report an error on the model page, or write to yusufbek02106@gmail.com. Every report lands in our corrections inbox and is checked against a source.
Prices are tracked over time. When a starting price changes, the old one is kept, and the model page then charts its price history.
How prices are checked
For some models, a program checks the maker’s own model page once a week and reads its published starting price. A change never goes live by itself: an editor checks it first, and the maker’s page is then shown as the source in the price history. Other prices are checked by hand.
The program identifies itself as PickupAtlasPriceWatch, follows each site’s robots.txt, and fetches at most one page per model a week. Site owners who want it to stop can block that name in robots.txt or write to yusufbek02106@gmail.com.
Reviews and videos are found the same way. Once a week the same program reads the public RSS feeds of some motoring publications, under the same name and rules, and asks YouTube’s official API for new uploads on some channels. It only looks at titles. An editor opens each piece before it is linked from a model page, and nothing is copied from the publisher beyond the title.
