Canoo is an American electric vehicle (EV) startup founded in 2017, focused on creating innovative and sustainable vehicles tailored to the future of urban and commercial transportation. Based in Torrance, California, Canoo's vision is to develop versatile EVs with a unique, modular design that allows for different vehicle types to be built on a single platform. This adaptable approach has led to the creation of vehicles like their Lifestyle Vehicle, which is designed for urban transport, and their Multi-Purpose Delivery Vehicle, aimed at commercial logistics. Canoo aims to deliver vehicles that are both affordable and environmentally friendly, with a focus on reducing production complexity and enhancing efficiency.

What sets Canoo apart is its emphasis on functionality and user experience. The company's vehicles feature a minimalist design that maximizes interior space and flexibility, making them ideal for both passenger transport and delivery services. Canoo is also exploring new business models, such as offering vehicles on a subscription basis rather than traditional ownership, catering to a new generation of consumers. With a strong focus on sustainability, including the use of recyclable materials, Canoo hopes to position itself as a leader in the growing EV market, competing with both legacy automakers and other startups in the race for cleaner transportation solutions.
