According to the company, the new truck will be dimensionally shorter than the Ford Ranger. It’s 184 inches long, and it features a 112.2-inch wheelbase. Compared to the Tesla Model 3, the wheelbase of the Canoo is an inch shorter.

As we mentioned, it comes with a built-in bed that ranges from six to eight feet and a hidden pull-out step that provides easier access to the bed.

The first impressions are divided, and still, the Canoo offers a unique and modern interior with plenty of soft touches. Interestingly, the teaser video shows that the new electric truck will offer only two seats, but we also managed to get more information and even expect a three-seat setup.
In terms of technology, the forthcoming truck features a very clean dashboard with a steering wheel looks interesting, and it fits some sort of display in the middle. Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait just a little bit to find out more details.
