...Canoo is still trucking along with their prototypes.

[Crissa]

I was told by a friend who lives down there that he keeps seeing them on the road. But it's always been tough to tell their prototypes from their renders, but I guess they're ready to start showing that they have multiple of them.

No idea how they'll get them made; they've had a couple of contracts fall through. As Elon says, prototypes are easy, production is hard. But we need lots of different designs to really serve the market.

These are cool concepts, but I have no interest in a subscription vehicle ownership model, which is what Canoo has been suggesting for some of its future distribution.

Just give me a CyberTruck and I don’t care abot Canoo, Ford or GM!
otherwise, I think, next year I will take Raptor EV. I think this is one that was mentioned at Ford delivery event. Especially if it has 400 miles range.

Up the creek without a paddle.

Even with Canoo cash burn rate, SEC probe and a bailout, NASA selected for Artemis crew transport among others who qualified.

Production alludes them still…

I would love to see them be successful as I think they fill a niche in the market that VW's new bus will only partly cover (and without any of the new ideas they originally claimed).

I want a truck that seats 5+, so the Canoo wouldn't be a contender for my business, but still an interesting design and set up.

I like vans. I would consider the ID Buzz or the Canoo over the CT if they could get the range over 300 miles and it could tow 7000 lbs and still get 150 miles.

Canoo promised them a custom seat layout for eight seats.

I don’t even need the towing capacity. But from the sounds of it the VW is likely to have a fairly short range and manufacturing is an issue for Canoo.

I wouldn't write Canoo off so easily now that the Supreme Court has started to address the question of row vs. wade. EV analysts say Canoo could easily double or triple their relevance if the Court decides paddling is preferable to rowing or wading.

Really?

Every topic must get infected with political talk?

WTF.

You have something against topical application of puns for a burned thread?

I envisage some really innovative EV designs,

The skateboard as the foundation, and FSD, and improved safety. We can practically configure interior space anyway we like.

Energy one day will be free and abundant... mpg will be a forgotten. The exterior can have more aesthetic flair.

Perhaps if this forum weren’t so inundated with little political wars I’d have read the whole post instead of getting irritated and replying in frustration. Way too many of the the threads here turn into the same pointless debates.

A moderator in another place posted this on one of the more active threads after someone dragged RvW into a conversation.

The amount of political discourse on this forum has gotten me pining for more moderated venues.


A real knee slapper
