Canoo Gets Unexpected Lifeline From Walmart: An Order For 4,500 Vans
https://www.google.com/amp/s/insideevs.com/news/597854/canoo-gets-unexpected-lifeline-from-walmart-order-4500-vans/amp/
The Walmart warrants will give Canoo over a $130 million cash infusion! They also have to notify Walmart of any takeover offers. I don’t think funding is going to be a problem.
Everyone has read the following article about EV's, I assume: https://wolfstreet.com/2022/07/12/why-delivery-giants-walmart-amazon-fedex-ups-even-deal-with-collapsing-ev-startups-ev-spac-canoo-is-the-latest-deal/
Walmart is building a new massive campus here so there will be space available around town but as of yet no Canoo advertising/ conversations around town that I have heard of
They are suppose to build a plant there.
I live in Bentonville no signs of Canoo around town yet hopefully soon
Walmart is backing them. They are sitting up a plant in Bentonville, Ar., plus Walmart has stipulated Canoo can’t sell to Amazon. They’ll have all the money they need, IMO.
Which has more value ? the EV Van or the battery it uses ?
$MxxN "so that means twice the distance for the same KWH charge :)"
"150-kilowatt-hour battery pack that delivers over 600-plus miles of range and highlights an 18-minute DC fast charge which can yield over 300 miles of range"
Yes, if ya had it YESTERDAY.
no production news just makes this feel like there waiting for someone to buy them out with the bad cpi report I think we could see 2.77
Yesterday's news was too good for that to not happen most likely, it's now on the radar of many traders who are looking and wanting for the fool sellers in a red tape to show up, and scoop up their shares, and prevent the MM shorting manipulators from getting away with it.
looks like it's gonna fill gap probably 2.77. I still think given some time, we see $10.
Why Delivery Giants Walmart, Amazon, FedEx & UPS even Deal with Collapsing EV Startups: EV SPAC Canoo is the Latest
by Wolf Richter • Jul 12, 2022 •
Scaring legacy automakers into finally producing electric cargo vans is like pulling teeth.
By Wolf Richter for WOLF STREET.
EV startup Canoo, which went public via merger with a SPAC in December 2020, and whose shares then promptly spiked and collapsed, and which said in its Q1 earnings report that it might not have enough dough to continue “as a going concern,” and which became one of the stars of my Imploded Stocks column, and which has yet to deliver any EVs, well, it announced today that it had inked a deal for Walmart to purchase 4,500 electric delivery vans someday.
Details have not been disclosed, and as is the case in all these deals of future purchases of a large number of electric delivery vans that don’t yet exist, there is lots of wriggle room in it for both parties, as is the case with the Walmart-GM BrightDrop deal, the Amazon-Rivian deal, the Amazon-Stellantis deal, the Amazon-GM BrightDrop deal, the UPS-Arrival deal, the FedEx-GM BrightDrop deal, or any of the others.
Canoo shares [GOEV] spiked by a phenomenally glorious 110% this morning, and by the close gave up half of that spike, and are up 53%. That 80% spike or 100% spike or whatever earlier was a huge deal in the headlines everywhere this morning. But shares were just $2.38 yesterday, and so the huge spike today was only to $5.00 this morning, and now back to $3.63. The shares are still down 84% from the intraday peak in December 2020. And today’s jump was just a little uptick in the collapse (data via YCharts):
Whatever will come of this order from Walmart, and whether or not Canoo has even enough cash to ramp up production to manufacture these vans, to Walmart this is irrelevant.
What Walmart wants is a lot of competition in the electric van space, and it wants to motivate the legacy van makers – Ford are you getting the hint? – to get on the ball and start producing top-notch electric vans that were designed from a blank sheet as electric vans, and with Walmart specs in mind.
Scaring legacy automakers into finally producing electric cargo vans is like pulling teeth.
It makes sense for Walmart, Amazon, UPS, and FedEx to throw their weight around in the development of EVs for urban delivery of packages. The legacy automakers have refused to build them until the giants started making deals with a bunch of startups, threatening to steal that business.
These huge delivery companies really really want to put electric vans into their urban delivery fleets because electric propulsion systems are ideally suited for urban delivery, where routes are generally below 100 miles a day, and there is no range anxiety. Vehicles can be charged up overnight at the warehouse, and electric motors are so much more efficient particularly in stop-and-go traffic, than ICE vehicles, which turn somewhere between 70% to 100% (at idle) of the energy they use into waste heat. Electric vans can capture some of the braking energy (otherwise waste heat) with regenerative braking that charges the battery every time the vehicle is slowed. And maintenance costs are lower than on ICE vans.
Every one of these massive companies that do urban deliveries wants electric vans – and have been wanting them for years and have been ordering them for years. And they’re just not forthcoming.
Another problem that needs to be shaken up: Ford.
Ford, the dominant player in the US delivery van business with its Transit van series, dropped the ball on EV vans. It focused its EV energies on the F-150 Lightening and the Mustang Mach-E. And so it doesn’t have a blank-sheet electric van model.
What it is now coming out with are last-minute-designed electric conversions of its ICE vans – putting the electric components into a vehicle designed for ICE components, and that’s never a good solution. And that’s the number one market leader in ICE vans.
GM is finally coming out with a blank-sheet electric delivery van under its BrightDrop division.
Ram, which builds the popular ProMaster delivery van, is coming out with an electric van. But with Ram now being a brand of Stellantis, this electric van will be based on a Fiat van.
Walmart and FedEx made deals with GM’s BrightDrop.
Walmart also made a deal with GM’s BrightDrop to “reserve” 5,000 electric delivery vans, which it expects to go into service in 2023, according to BrightDrop.
FedEx had put in a reservation for 500 BrightDrop vans and received the first five prototypes in December last year for testing. In January, it then put in an order for an additional 2,000 vans.
FedEx said that it hopes electric vans will make up half of all of its van purchases by 2025, and 100% by 2030. The numbers in this business are just huge: FedEx’s fleet of electric vans may eventually reach 250,000 vehicles, it said.
UPS made a deal with Arrival.
UPS put in an order with UK-based EV startup Arrival for 10,000 electric delivery vans, with the option to purchase 10,000 more vans. The order is subject to cancellation at any time, and without penalty, like so many of these types of orders. The deal was announced in early 2020. UPS also invested an “undisclosed amount” in Arrival.
UPS, during its earnings call on February 1, 2022, said that it will “purchase” 425 Arrival vans in 2022, and beyond testing some prototypes, still doesn’t operate any of the vans.
Following the hype-and-hoopla announcement of the UPS deal, Arrival announced later in 2020 that it would merge with a SPAC in the US. The merger was completed in March 2021, with shares trading on the Nasdaq, where they promptly collapsed by 94% from the hype-and-hoopla high to today’s penny-stock of $1.46 (data via YCharts):
Amazon made deals with Rivian, Fiat, I mean Ram, Daimler, Lion, and whatever.
Amazon invested about $1.3 billion in Rivian for a 20% stake. In a deal announced with great fanfare, Rivian was supposed to build 100,000 vans for Amazon through 2030, to Amazon’s specs, and Rivian was supposed to start delivering them in 2021.
And then nothing happened, and in May 2022, there were reports of further delays because Rivian was suing a supplier over pricing issues or whatever. Beyond the prototypes for testing, there are still no vans.
However, Rivian is building and delivering high-dollar pickup trucks, and they’re out there, and I have seen a few of them already. But they’re not for Amazon.
Now there are reports that Rivian is planning layoffs that could reach 5% of its workforce, according to sources cited by Bloomberg. These are nonmanufacturing roles that will be eliminated as the company wants to trim its workforce after overstaffing.
Rivian’s shares [RIVN] have collapsed by 83% from their high in November 2021, and both Amazon and Ford have taken huge write-downs on the gains they’d booked following the Rivian IPO in November 2021 (data via YCharts):
Amazon also ordered “thousands” of electric Ram ProMaster vans, Stellantis said in January 2022, which are based on electric vans from Fiat, with some input from Amazon.
Amazon has also ordered 1,800 electric vans from Daimler for use in Europe. And it ordered electric three-wheelers from Mahindra for use in India.
And from Lion Electric. Amazon ordered up to 2,500 electric trucks from Lion Electric, an EV maker startup in Canada, hopefully for delivery in 2025 or whenever.
Lion Electric announced in November 2020 that it would go public via merger with a SPAC. Weeks after the announcement, the Amazon order was reported and hugely hyped, and the SPAC’s shares spiked to $35.25 by January 15, 2021. By the time the merger with the SPAC was approved and completed in May 2021, shares had already plunged by about half. And today, at $4.37, shares are down 88% from the hype-peak. And Amazon still hasn’t gotten any electric delivery trucks (data via YCharts):
Twisting arms of the legacy van makers.
Legacy automakers still face huge problems with their supply chains for ICE models where they’ve had well-established supply chains. Production was hit mostly by shortages of specific semiconductors. Now they’re trying to build new supply chains for EVs, which is even worse. There are long waiting lists for their passenger EVs. Electric cargo vans are not the top priority. And for Ford, which dominates the ICE cargo van business, electric cargo vans are just an afterthought.
So it makes sense for the delivery giants Amazon, Walmart, UPS, and FedEx to fire up some startups, though they have even bigger problems trying to set up complex supply chains, in addition to all the other problems they have, such as running out of cash. But that’s the only way the giants have to twist the arms of legacy van makers into finally producing EV vans.
Nice article from Fortune for GOEV. Looks like the initial deal is worth around $135 million dollars gross and also it looks like they’ve been working with Walmart for quite awhile. On Stocktwits someone was predicting a buy out by Walmart, but? https://finance.yahoo.com/news/walmart-just-ordered-4-500-193553774.html
Is closed up 59%. Ahhh, looks pretty good to me!
Sir? Lol. I have made my living doing this for around 20 years. Profits I make aren’t your business, they are mine and the IRS’s.
We’ll see. I certainly don’t think so. Expect we’ll see $6 - $8 soon. W
Looks like this "CANOO" (pun intended) got stuck-up-the-river, without a paddle --- and no water, to boot!!!
Well then, how much PROFIT did you make today, Sir???? Inspire me!!!
Totally untrue! I personally have reloaded several times.
Maybe tomorrow, next week, etc., but NO "reloading" today, Sir. (Look at that downward SLOPE, all day long.) Merely DUMPING by the various 'insiders' (especially at the COMPANY itself, & all their Homeboys & relatives, inter alia).
No it’s not! When you have a stock jump 100% on opening, people are going to profit take, reload and do it again. Many have been in an out in 4 or 5 times today. Also a big short attack most likely hit. The DD is solid, the chart will consolidate and the PPS will return to $5.00+ in a few days. Volume before price. No worries, watching for bottom to load more.
Indeed. And ALL of these EV companies are playing that SAME game --- gonna-do-this, & gonna-do-that --- 10-yrs. from now, when PRODUCTION hits the Markets
ATTENTION iHUB: PLEASE get that crap about (X-President) Donald DumbFuck OFF of the top of iHub boards!! WHY do you trash iHub's own REPUTATION, via posting those mindless (Right-Wing) Trump "Surveys" up there???? PLEASE, have a little RESPECT for your own iHub business!!! You repeatedly CENSOR/DELETE my iHub posts as purportedly "OFF TOPIC"; but then you, yourselves, post irrelevant bullshit about DONALD DumpTruck!!! THANK YOU!!!
I'm still holding my (mere) $1,000 Lotto play here, behind that same theory, Bro --- namely, MORE epic CONTRACTS looming over the horizon. Heck, what-the-fluck. It's either this, or jump-on tomorrow's likely 'PETRI DISH CANCER CURE OF THE DAY', routine. Heck, Home Depot's ACETONE kills every single deadly microbe, cancer, & otherwise germ known to Mankind --- on a silly PETRI DISH!!!
Agreed!! I, too, got SUCKERED big time. (Boy, follow me for winners, ehh???) In truth, it's the insiders at the COMPANY ITSELF, dumping like crazy --- including the CEO, naturally. Whatever. And on to the NEXT Electric Cars contracts routine; Cancer Cures in a Test Tube routine; or Metaverse Barbie's Dream CITY routine.
Looks like only 6am pre market folks made money on this pos
Criminal Street is using every gimmick they have to try and control the price action, like darkpools,naked shorting every little run up, with 30m+ shares short, they know they can get more burned and end up giving up more of their profits, that they are still sitting on if it gets another leg up, the short squeeze hunters are out for them today, and could be looking to burn the criminals harder in the after hours.
GOEV mentioned on CNBC 30 minutes ago. Walmart will probably just be the tip of the iceberg. Grabbed a starter here, will add on dips.
GOEV: Ya think there's something BETTER than GOEV's NEWS today --- out there in the general Markets, Peeps??? Well, think it all over AGAIN, Dudes!!! A little 'consolidation' right now, but otherwise BRACE yourselves!! (HA-HA-HA!!)

Walmart to Purchase 4,500 Canoo Electric Delivery Vehicles to be Used for Last Mile Deliveries in Support of Its Growing eCommerce Business
The retailer will be the first to receive Canoo's Lifestyle Delivery Vehicle which is anticipated to begin hitting the road for Walmart deliveries in 2023.
BENTONVILLE, Ark., July 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Walmart (NYSE: WMT) has signed a definitive agreement with Canoo (NASDAQ: GOEV), a high-tech advanced mobility company, to purchase 4,500 all-electric delivery vehicles, beginning with the Lifestyle Delivery Vehicle (LDV), with the option to purchase up to 10,000 units. The vehicles will be used to deliver online orders in a sustainable way which will also contribute to Walmart's goal to achieve zero-emissions by 2040. While the LDV is expected to begin hitting the road in 2023, the companies plan to kick-off advanced deliveries to refine and finalize vehicle configuration in the Dallas Fort Worth metroplex in the coming weeks.
The LDV: Engineered for sustainable last mile deliveries with improved driver ergonomics and safety
Canoo's fully electric Lifestyle Delivery Vehicle (LDV) is an American-made commercial EV optimized for sustainable last mile delivery use cases. As with all Canoo vehicles, the LDV is built on a proprietary multi-purpose platform (MPP) architecture that integrates the motors, battery module and other critical driving components. The LDV has a last mile delivery optimized cabin and customized cargo space. Canoo is utilizing true steer by wire technology, reducing moving parts and cabin intrusion, resulting in more usable interior space, better driver ergonomics and the addition of a panoramic window to improve road visibility.
The LDV is engineered for high frequency stop-and-go deliveries and speedy vehicle to door drop-off, including grocery and food/meal delivery. Its customized interior is designed for small package delivery, at competitive per stop economics. The modular design and 120 cubic feet cargo volume are adaptable to evolve with customer needs which contributes to a decreasing per unit investment over time.
"We are proud to have been selected by Walmart, one of the most sophisticated buyers in the world, to provide our high-tech, all-electric, American made Lifestyle Delivery Vehicle to add to their impressive logistics capabilities. Our LDV has the turning radius of a small passenger vehicle on a parking friendly, compact footprint, yet the payload and cargo space of a commercial delivery vehicle. This is the winning algorithm to seriously compete in the last mile delivery race, globally," said Tony Aquila, Investor, Chairman and CEO of Canoo. "Walmart's massive store footprint provides a strategic advantage in today's growing 'Need it now' mindset and an unmatched opportunity for growing EV demand, especially at today's gas prices."
Expanding Walmart's Last Mile Delivery Fleet
Canoo's electric vehicles will be driven by Walmart associates and used to deliver online orders, from groceries to general merchandise, as well as the potential to be used for Walmart GoLocal, the retailer's delivery-as-a-service business.
"We're thrilled to continue diversifying our last mile delivery fleet with Canoo's unique and sustainably focused all-electric technology which will provide our associates with safe, ergonomic delivery vehicles," said David Guggina, senior vice president of innovation and automation, Walmart U.S. "Today, the closest Walmart to customers is right in their pockets – it's the Walmart app. By continuing to expand our last mile delivery fleet in a sustainable way, we're able to provide customers and Walmart+ members with even more access to same-day deliveries while keeping costs low."
In addition to dedicated fulfillment centers, Walmart uses 3,800 of its stores, which are located within 10 miles of 90% of the U.S. population, to fulfill online orders. The retailer does this using a combination of Walmart associates, independent contractors driving on the Spark Driver Network, third-party delivery service providers, and in some locations, autonomous vehicles and drones, to make deliveries. Through their expansive last mile delivery network, Walmart can reach 80% of the U.S. population with same-day delivery on a growing assortment of items.
Collaborating Close to Home
Canoo's agreement with Walmart builds on the company's existing commitments in the state of Arkansas. Last year Canoo announced it had selected Bentonville, Arkansas, as its headquarters and Pryor, Oklahoma as the site for its U.S. manufacturing, further establishing an EV ecosystem in the heartland to create thousands of technology and manufacturing jobs in the surrounding communities.
"We're encouraged that by being located in close proximity to the Canoo headquarters, we have the advantage to collaborate and innovate in real-time as well as the opportunity to aid in the creation of manufacturing and technology jobs here in our home state of Arkansas," added Guggina.
Canoo anticipates starting production of the Lifestyle Delivery Vehicles beginning in Q4, 2022.

The plant, at full capacity, will be able to build over 150,000 vehicles a year, he said in an interview.
Canoo's investment in the facility will come in stages, and depending on demand could ultimately range from $500 million to $1 billion,
he said, adding that the state is providing Canoo more than $300 million in tax incentives.
Until the Oklahoma plant opens, VDL will build Canoo's seven-seat vehicle for the U.S. and European markets,
he said, allowing Canoo to meet its commitment to start production in the fourth quarter of 2022.
LOS ANGELES, March 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Canoo Inc. (Nasdaq: GOEV), a company developing breakthrough
purpose-built electric vehicles (EVs) with a proprietary and highly versatile platform architecture,
debuted today its fully-electric pickup truck during the Motor Press Guild's Virtual Media Day (VMD) in partnership with Automobility LA.
The production version of the pickup truck will open for preorders in Q2 2021, with deliveries beginning as early as 2023.
"We are so passionate about building vehicles that can change people's lives," said Tony Aquila, Executive Chairman, Canoo.
"Our pickup truck is as strong as the toughest trucks out there and is designed to be exponentially more productive. This truck works for you.
We made accessories for people who use trucks – on the job, weekends, adventure. You name it, we did it because it's your platform and she's bad to the bone."
Canoo's pickup truck was built with several unique features to help customers do more with their vehiclesi:
Pull-out Bed Extension:
The pickup truck bed is six feet long and can extend to a fully enclosed eight feet, allowing big items such as a 4 by 8 ft sheet of plywood to easily fit inside.
The pull-handle bed extension also helps with loading and unloading the truck. The extension also serves as a license plate holder.
When the bed is extended, a second layer of tailgate doors can be swiveled out.
The bed-extension also houses a secondary lamp, containing all tail lamp functions, so the truck can be driven while the bed space is maximized.
Fold Down Worktable + Cargo Storage:
To offer the greatest customer utility, the pickup features a front cargo storage area that can hold tools or gear, also includes a fold down worktable with electrical outlets.
The workstation table is extendable to allow customers to have maximized work surface on the go, in addition to providing an area to put on gear before heading out exploring.
Flip-Down Side Tables:
Both sides of the vehicle house a flip down table in two expandable depths.
Built into the side panel of the truck bed, the flip-down side table becomes a workbench with multi-functional power sources in close proximity.
Side Step + Storage:
On the side of the vehicle there is a hidden step to allow quick and easy access to the truck bed.
Underneath the step is a flexible storage area for items including: a first-aid kit, cooler for snacks and drinks, lockable laptop storage and more.
This space efficient feature is only possible due to Canoo's ultra-flat platform.
Modular Bed with Space Dividers:
The truck bed is modular with the use of Canoo's space divider system designed to keep items separate and secure.
The bed wall also incorporates modular wheel chocks to secure bikes and configurable tie downs for ladders, large equipment and other materials.
Multi-Accessory Charge Port:
The pickup truck can double as a powerplant with exportable power accessible on all sides of the vehicle.
Power can last all day for tools and devices, with as little as 10% impact on vehicle range.|
Integrated Overhead + Bed Perimeter Lighting:
The third break light doubles as an overhead light to see inside the cargo bed at night.
The vehicle is also equipped with perimeter lighting on all sides of the bed wall for added visibility.
Roof Rack:
The pickup truck has optional roof racks in variable sizes for added cargo storage. The roof rack is easily accessible from the flatbed or via the sidestep.
Camper Shell:
The pickup truck has been designed to accommodate a variety of camper shells to fit as many use cases as possible.
The pickup truck is the third vehicle that will be based on the company's proprietary multi-purpose platform architecture, enabling the accelerated development timeline.
Canoo's EV platform functionally integrates all the critical components of an electric powertrain to be as flat and efficient as possible.
Traditional EV platforms have power units, shock towers and mechanical steering columns that protrude into the vehicle and take up space.
By incorporating steer-by-wire and other space-saving technologies,
Canoo's thin platform, with no need for an engine compartment, allows the company to offer a flatbed size comparable to America's best-selling pickup truck on a smaller footprint.
This makes the vehicle easier to maneuver and more convenient to drive and park in any terrain.
Vehicle specifications for the Canoo pickup truck includeii:
Canoo designed its pickup truck to be the most cab-forward and space efficient on the market, with massive cargo capacity on the smallest footprint possible.
Thanks to the flexible platform and steer-by-wire, the passenger compartment was able to be shifted forward to maximize driver visibility.
Canoo's designers gave the pickup added stance and durability with increased wheel spats to support larger wheels, which provides improved stability and gives it a rugged profile.
Advanced lighting technology provides adaptive safety, and the company's iconic signature headlights and taillights serve as core brand identifiers without the need for a logo.
Beyond just storage, the front surface of the vehicle has been extended to better protect the headlights and windscreen.
The bumpers are designed for maximum functionality and durability with integrated tow hooks and metal skid plates on both the front and rear.
The vehicle's fog lamps are also integrated seamlessly into the bumper design to offer the driver additional visibility and safety.
Lined with trim and materials selected for durability, the extended cab vehicle has two seats in the front with a customizable rear compartment
that can accommodate two additional seats or support additional purpose-built use-case configurability.
Full specifications will be revealed closer to production. With its thoughtful added features, utilitarian design, and compact maneuverability,
this vehicle reinforces Canoo's mission of creating electric vehicles for everyone on the road or dirt road.
Canoo's line of battery electric vehicles is purposefully designed to help everyday people be more productive and enjoy
a return on capital from their vehicle, putting money back into the pockets of its consumers.
