Tony Aquila, Canoo Inc’s Chairman & CEO, said: “Our discipline continues to be Big News or No News. Therefore, we will accelerate our advanced manufacturing production in the U.S. to begin before Q4 2022. In June, we announced Pryor, Oklahoma, as the location for our owned manufacturing facility. We have expanded this partnership to include Arkansas and additional locations in Oklahoma. We will now focus on completing the definitive agreements with each state, which will include approximately $100 million in additional non-dilutive financial incentives, making the total approximately $400 million. In addition, with these agreements, we are targeting approximately $100 million in vehicle orders with the states and universities where we are locating these facilities.”
