Canoo Expands Globally With UK Launch, Establishes Activation Center At Historic Bicester Motion

Canoo Inc. GOEV announced its official entry into the U.K. market by establishing Canoo Technologies UK Limited. This move represents a key milestone in the company’s global expansion strategy.

“Our expansion into the UK is a key milestone in our global growth strategy, enabling us to establish a local presence for our commercial customers to better serve their needs,” said Tony Aquila, Investor, Executive Chairman, and CEO of Canoo.

Canoo has chosen Bicester Motion, a historic automotive campus, for its Activation Center, allowing U.K. customers to experience and test drive right-hand drive commercial electric vans.

The CEO noted that the U.K. activation center at Bicester Motion would enable the company to utilize local expertise and enhance its commercial operations in a promising market, highlighting incentives like the plug-in van grant (PIVG) that support growing demand and align with the government’s zero-emissions goals.
