The @canoo Electric Van gets BIG thumbs up from British Fleets - "One to watch!" #ev #vanlife
So the @canoo LDV 130/190 and LV came back to the UK to give the Great British Fleets (companies with LOTS of vehicles in operation) the chance to have a FIRST DRIVE in the glorious proving ground of Milbrook in Bedfordshire UK
Great to get the feedback and to feel universally supported in the positive view I have of the vehicle. I was engaged to support Canoo with this endeavour but the video I did off my own back.

    You are correct, most people who have driven one love it. The problem is getting it into real production. They are well behind their stated production goals from a few years ago and are struggling financially. I really want them to succeed, not least because I own a good chunk of stock and have had a reservation for an LSV for years now. If they can get orders out of the UK it'll help them raise more capital to get into production and maybe keep the company alive.

    Canoo reservation holder since December of 2020 - I loved their concepts, modularity and products, but this company left everyone who made early reservations completely out in the cold. I wanted an MPV, but reserved the pickup because Canoo was indicating at the time that the pickup truck was going to be their first production vehicle. I understand that they need serious cash to stay viable, but the shift to courting corporate sponsors and trying to sell fleet vehicles and vans without any communication or regard for any of us who offered support and paid money up front. They turned their backs on the people who believed in their vision and keep the lights on. Canoo was in a position to bring steer-by-wire technology and a BEV pickup trucks to market before Tesla, but somehow lost sight of filling that gap in the market and creating a revolutionary consumer product. Instead, they opted to circle the drain and hope to win EV fleet delivery vehicle contracts. I watched their stock peak at over $460 (when I made my reservation) and then fall all the way to the current $2 value over the past 4 years . At this point I'm just thankful that I was able to get a refund for my deposit. Canoo is an incredible concept that has been mismanged to the brink of bancrupcy. It'll be a miracle if they ever deliver any consumer vehicles or get as far as Fisker.
