Fleet Management Company Zeeba Agrees To Buy 5,450 Canoo Electric Vans
Canoo seems to be growing bigger every day, the EV startup has signed a new deal with Zeeba to deliver the fleet management company with 5,450 electric commercial vans.
Zeeba is a fleet management company that leases commercial vehicles to customers on short or long-term contracts. The company seems eager to modernize its fleet and enter the electric age using one of the most popular electric vans currently available on the market. The initial agreement with Canoo includes the delivery of 3,000 Canoo Lifestyle Delivery Vehicles and Lifestyle Vehicles through 2024. The vans will all be incorporated into Zeeba’s fleet and used on its long-term leasing offers.
Zeeba describes itself as “the future of fleet management” living up to this slogan requires a rapid and constant modernization of its fleet. The new deal with Canoo is clearly a step in this direction, the new Canoo electric vans will work side by side with BrightDrop, GM’s own electric commercial vehicles.
Canoo officials seem satisfied now that their flagship vehicle is finally finding its purpose in life after some recent struggles; “Small & medium-sized businesses (SMB) are the backbone of our communities, employing about half of all working Americans, and they are Zeeba’s target customers,” said Tony Aquila, Chairman & CEO at Canoo. “We put technology first and combined class-leading ergonomics, a small vehicle footprint-to-cargo ratio, and platform versatility while achieving a lower carbon footprint and higher return on investment for the operator, all of which will help SMBs compete.”

The deal with Zeeba is the most recent episode in a series of spectacular deals with large organizations, notably NASA and Walmart. “We have a large committed, growing order book, are finalizing our multi-year allocations for 2023 customer deliveries, and will share our manufacturing plans with the broader market shortly,” said Aquila. “This order is another milestone validating our product and strategy.”[i]
Power efficiency and The Van’s customizable design made Canoo the ideal partner for fleet operating businesses, the Lifestyle Delivery Vehicle is powered by a 40 kWh battery pack, offering a range of 250 miles. The unique design offers unprecedented visibility all around the vehicle, and the ample space in the back can hold up to 120 cubic feet of cargo.
Canoo is working hard to make the ideal Van for businesses and the environment at the same time, obviously, that’s easier said than done. But in the end, it's noble work that will eventually help people make their lives better in multiple aspects.
