A new electric truck is coming!


Have you ever heard of a Canoo? It is a California start up company that is aiming for a 2023 release of an EV truck. Not too many details included, but it is an interesting concept!

The 200 mile range between charging stations will take a whole lot of planning to work out for any off-roading. I wonder how much of a power source it would need, and how long it would take to bring it up to full charge?

I found another link!


I wasn't sure if the first link was an actual prototype, but this video looks like one does exist!

Here is a long (13 min) video


I never heard of this company before, but they have obviously been working on this for a while!

I dig the version with the camper shell. I think these Van life people are gonna love it when they can get an electric van.....I'm excited about this stuff, even though it will slowly kill the industry I'm in. Thanks for posting AK.
