Canoo was on the ragged edge until Walmart placed an order for 4,500 vans.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nBuilt on the same Multi-Purpose Platform (MPP) as the LDV 130, offers 30% more space and 21% greater payload capacity, but shares the same wheelbase. It boasts a beefed-up suspension system to handle the increased payload, but it retains the LDV 130’s steer-by-wire system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The LDV 190 also features a patent-pending interchangeable rear cargo area that allows owners to change between barn door, tambour door and a split tailgate configuration. The company will also offer the LDV 190 with dual 50\/50 barn doors with 270\u00b0 hinges that fold backwards against the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company plans to be ready for annual production of 20,000 units by year\u2019s end. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new van provides 172 cubic feet of space behind the bulkhead, with more cargo room available in the front cabin if the single seat version is ordered. Composite translucent roof panels, shelving systems, storage bins, and a sliding cargo floor with a 1000-pound working capacity are optional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
