Canoo, the American manufacturer of electric cars, will definitely not be making cars at the VDL Nedcar in Bourne. Made entirely in the United States.
The two companies are still in talks about future cooperation, reports said Canoe In a press release.
First customer
Canoo is VDL Nedcar’s first new customer this summer after BMW decided to shift production of the BMW and MINI models to its own factories. In June, both companies announced that Canoo would start producing cars from next year until 2028. VDL Nedcar wants to set up additional production space in the parking lot first, as normal production of BMW and MINI will continue until 2023.
