How Canoo's Flexible, Award-Winning Electric Vans Are Helping Reshape Commercial And Government Fleets

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Learn more about Canoo Inc. by checking out its Investor Relations Website. From delivery vans that have driver-side storage, built-in removal tools and hanging storage to pickup trucks with fold-down workspaces, hidden storage and expandable cargo space, Canoo Inc. (NASDAQ: GOEV) is reimagining the transportation market with its suite of fully-electric lifestyle delivery vehicles (LDVs) and democratized battery power solutions. Justin, Texas-based Canoo (with its main manufacturing in Oklahoma City and battery module manufacturing in Pryor, Oklahoma) is bringing electric vehicles, namely delivery vehicles in the Class 1 and 2 categories, to large commercial and government fleets via a proprietary modular electric platform designed to maximize vehicle interior space, enabling it to be customizable across owners and applications. The company offers a lineup of electric delivery vehicles targeting smaller more flexible uses, including last mile delivery. EVs With A Twist Take Canoo’s LDV190 for starters. The newest to the Canoo lineup, the LDV 190 is a long-haul delivery vehicle that gets more than 200 miles per charge. But the range and horsepower aren’t what makes the LDV190 and its other EVs different. It’s the flexibility and space within the vehicle where the company says things get interesting. Canoo’s delivery vehicles are built on a modular platform allowing customizable configurations whether you are hauling large packages or racks of clothing. Foldable and retractable storage and tables on the exterior of the vehicles make Canoo’s vehicles unique in the market, the company says. It also sticks to a clean, minimalist shape that has received design award recognition, most recently several Red Dot Design Awards. The Red Dot Award is an annual international competition recognizing excellence in design and among the world’s largest design competitions. Canoo’s steer-by-wire technology is not common in vehicles today. Canoo says using steer-by-wire technology reduces moving parts and cabin intrusion, resulting in more usable interior space, better driver ergonomics and the addition of a panoramic window to improve road visibility. This type of technology has been used in aviation for decades, but Canoo is the first to bring it to a production vehicle. The LDV190 offers multiple cargo configurations including shelves and racks, and advanced safety features such as blind spot monitoring and traction stability control. Canoo is going after the delivery market with this electric LDV and counts the U.S. Post Office (USPS) as a customer. Canoo has already delivered six right-hand drive versions of the LDV 190 to the USPS as part of its move to electrify and modernize the postal service’s delivery fleet, and it will likely run another RFP for vehicles later this year where Canoo will compete. The USPS is investing $40 billion to upgrade and improve the organization’s processing, transportation and delivery networks. Success With Walmart And Other Last Mile Delivery Companies The LDV130 is another electric lifestyle delivery vehicle in Canoo’s lineup. This one is more compact and is designed for the worker and last-mile deliveries. Go2 Delivery, a logistics solutions provider with a sustainability mission, recently signed a definitive agreement to purchase five LDV130s with the potential to purchase up to an additional 85 vans. Go2 Delivery will integrate Canoo’s LDV130 into its delivery fleet to enhance operational efficiency, provide eco-friendly deliveries for customers and lower its environmental impact, Canoo said. Canoo’s LDVs have been in deep testing with the e-commerce operation of Walmart Inc. (NYSE: WMT) which inked a deal with Canoo a couple of years ago to purchase 4,500 LDVs. Walmart has an option to buy up to 10,000. Canoo is part of Walmart’s plan to achieve zero emissions by 2040, the companies said when announcing the deal. Consumers aren’t forgotten in Canoo’s lineup. The LV is Canoo’s minivan of sorts. It includes Canoo’s steer-by-wire system, a wide field of view, a panoramic sunroof and five- and seven-seat configurations. This variant was customized and sold to NASA as the Crew Transportation Vehicles (CTVs) that will take the Artemis Mission astronauts to the launchpad and has effectively replaced the NASA Astrovan. The Canoo Pickup and American Bulldog were designed for everything and came with built-in draws, foldable tables, modular storage and a pull-out bed extension. A version of the pickup, the Screaming Eagle, was sold to the U.S. Army for testing for their Light Tactical Vehicle (LTV) program. Canoo’s line-up of fully electric LDVs is designed to usher in a new era of sustainability for the commercial transportation market. Taking a page from Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), Canoo is betting the modular design and the ability to customize the cargo space on the fly will appeal to companies and government customers looking to lower their carbon footprint.

Luftgekühlt 10 celebrates Porsche Turbo Anniversary at Universal Studios Backlot

Luftgekuhlt

As the original Porsche icon, the 911 Turbo has become shorthand for high-performance and cutting edge technology. The cars have graced the bedroom wall of thousands of children around the world who grew up idolizing the signature flared fenders and Whale Tail spoiler. Fifty years later, the 930 model, introduced at the Paris Motor Show on October 3, 1974, not only established the 911 Turbo as a legendary vehicle but inserted its name into the vernacular. In recognition of the importance of the 911 Turbo and to celebrate its birthday, Luftgekühlt 10 will showcase a number of landmark vehicles, including a collection of original and modified examples in true Luft style within the Universal Studios Backlot. And in keeping with Luft tradition, the organizers have secured a number of significant racing examples, such as the 930-based Vasek Polak Racing Porsche 934, which claimed the 1976 Trans-Am Championship. Chassis #0179 will be on display; one of two cars entered that year by the California Porsche dealer. It was driven by George Follmer and Hurley Haywood. Throughout the season, Follmer predominantly raced #0174 until a heavy crash saw him swap to #0179. The 934 dominated the Championship, allowing Follmer to win the title with Haywood in second. The team switched to a 935 for the 1977 season. Luft 10 attendees will be able to enjoy the 911 Turbo exhibits as well as a plethora of significant air-cooled Porsches. We’ll reveal more featured cars in the weeks to come. SUPPORTING EVENTS A full itinerary was recently shared via the Luft newsletter, allowing fans to get their Luft fix in more ways than one. The fun starts on Thursday October 3 with the Luft pre-party at Gunther Werks in Huntington Beach, CA. It runs from 7-11pm and all are welcome. Don’t party all night because you won’t want to miss the Rise & Shine pre-party at Race Service on Venice Blvd in Los Angeles. It takes place on October 4 from 9am-12pm and there will be plenty of coffee available. You can then grab lunch before heading over to the Petersen Automotive Museum on Wilshire Blvd in Los Angeles to celebrate 50 years of the 911 Turbo with fellow enthusiasts. Cocktails and gourmet bites will be served but you’ll need tickets to attend, which are available from the Petersen HERE. The event takes place on Friday October 4 from 6-10pm.

New Horizon Aircraft (NASDAQ: HOVR) Poised For Growth With Hybrid Aircraft Technology Amid Small-Cap Strength

Benzinga

By Gerelyn Terzo, Benzinga The future has arrived, thanks to electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft. eVTOLs are aircraft that launch vertically, similar to a helicopter, rather than a conventional takeoff. Hybrid-electric eVTOL designs have the potential to enable greater speed, range and cargo capacity than fully electric versions and could play an important role in the future of aviation. While eVTOL is still in its early days, with the industry currently in the testing phase, its value is predicted to surpass $30 billion by the next decade amid a CAGR of 15.3% since last year. And while Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) is playing a key role with electric vehicles, New Horizon Aircraft (NASDAQ: HOVR) hopes to take on a leadership position in the eVTOL aircraft market segment. Toronto-based New Horizon says it has been an early mover in eVTOL technology with its Cavorite X7 prototype aircraft, a hybrid model built for real-world use cases. Its aircraft takes off vertically, true to eVTOL form. However, once in flight, it reverts to the configuration of a conventional airplane, owing to the company’s patented HOVR wing system. The Cavorite X7 is built to reach speeds of 250 miles per hour, with a fuel capacity of more than 500 miles, making it appropriate for real-world applications like travel when the time comes. Learn more about New Horizon Aircraft’s technology here. New Horizon Puts Pedal To The Metal On eVTOL Aircraft Led by a team of operators, aviators and aerospace engineers, New Horizon has been going full throttle of late as it prepares to fully transition its large-scale prototype aircraft by the end of this year. Chief among New Horizon’s priorities is advancing the development of its hybrid-powered eVTOL aircraft. The company has been making strides from a technical standpoint while also building out its team internally. Flight test program: Among the technical highlights, New Horizon has published results on its flight test program, which it says are surpassing its expectations. The company has performed hundreds of flight tests and is nearing full transition speed, which it anticipates achieving by year-end. Full-scale aircraft development: New Horizon says it is innovating the proprietary patent technologies that are critical to its unique aircraft, including full-scale propulsion units that are essential to its HOVR wing technology. Cooling system and power tests for its full-scale propulsion units continue to unfold and it says the outcomes are positive so far. Encouraging test results extend to the company’s Cavorite X7’s patented HOVR wing design, which the company says enables safer, more durable performance even in the most forbidding conditions. Digital twin development: New Horizon harnesses a hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) digital twin technology to test its aircraft, supporting the rapid testing of large-scale prototype aircraft like the Cavorite X7. Its hybrid technology is fueled by its HOVR wing technology, allowing the aircraft to fly nearly all of its missions in a formation that closely resembles that of a conventional aircraft. Meanwhile, the company says the hybrid power system delivers greater range, speed and payloads in its class. When the Cavorite X7 reaches commercialization, New Horizon expects it to have the power to disrupt the travel industry with its speed, efficiency and cost savings over traditional aircraft. However, its potential use cases also extend to medical evacuation, critical supply delivery, disaster relief and special military missions. “Our unique, customer-first approach prioritizes building a tough eVTOL aircraft that can operate in bad weather, icing conditions and other challenging operational environments. This strategy is gaining strong traction with operators, driving substantial demand,” said Horizon Aircraft CEO Brandon Robinson. To keep pace with this ongoing innovation, New Horizon recently expanded its team with the addition of seasoned engineer Tom Brassington as Chief Technology Officer. New Horizon Says It Could Be Poised To Benefit From Possible Small-Cap Stock Demand Earlier this year, New Horizon made its debut in the publicly traded markets amid a business combination with special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) Pono Capital Three. Most recently, New Horizon returned to the equity capital markets with a $2.9 million public offering. The deal, the closing for which was announced in August, comprised 2.8 million Class A ordinary shares with various types of warrants. New Horizon’s timing is no coincidence, as the company says it could be poised to benefit from an expected ongoing rotation in the equity markets into small cap stocks. While small cap stocks have been gaining attention of late, New Horizon took matters into its own hands. It commissioned its own global poll of investment managers to uncover evidence of investor demand for small- and micro-cap names working with more sustainable technologies, where the upside potential is considered greater than larger companies because they are coming from a lower base. The aerospace company says it found that investor demand is in fact there, with more than three-quarters of survey participants demonstrating an expectation for exposure to these asset classes among institutional investors to increase in the next six to twelve months. Slightly more than one-third (34%) of them say allocations to these stocks could increase by at least 25%. Investors who are interested in participating in New Horizon’s growth story can learn more about this company’s financials here.

Industry Update: 3 Exciting Precision Oncology Players to Watch Following Summit’s Meteoric Rise: Silexion, Nuvectis, Scorpian

Global Markets News

Summit Therapeutics (NASDAQ: SMMT) recently captured headlines with the release of its Phase 3 data for ivonescimab, a targeted NSCLC therapy that has generated substantial buzz. The results from its trial conducted in China showed a dramatic 49% reduction in the risk of disease progression or death compared to Merck’s Keytruda, signaling a potentially disruptive force in NSCLC treatment. However, the news wasn’t without its concerns—since the trial data originates from China, there are questions about its applicability to broader, global populations. As noted by BMO Capital Markets’ Evan Seigerman: “Results may or may not be generalizable beyond the China-focused patient population initially assessed.” Despite this, Summit’s valuation has risen by over 100%, now approximating $19 billion. With such a high valuation, the company could see limited room for further significant gains, leading many in the industry to explore other emerging opportunities in precision oncology. Alongside Summit, there are quite a few other players in the field. Some if these companies have even already shown promising initial results and could see similar success in the future if they were to report positive results. These emerging players are worth watching for those interested in following precision oncology drug candidates and pipelines. Among them are precision oncology innovators such as Silexion Therapeutics, Nuvectis Pharma, and Scorpion Therapeutics, which we discuss below. Silexion Therapeutics: Disrupting the KRAS-Driven Cancer Space Silexion Therapeutics (NASDAQ: SLXN) is another under-the-radar player in the precision oncology space, with a focus on KRAS-driven cancers—a notoriously difficult target in oncology. While current small-molecule KRAS inhibitors are making progress, they are often limited to specific mutations, such as KRAS G12C, which accounts for a small percentage of cancers. Silexion’s RNA interference (RNAi) approach offers a broader solution, targeting a wider spectrum of KRAS mutations, particularly in pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest and most treatment-resistant cancers. At the heart of Silexion’s approach is its LODER™ platform, which delivers siRNA directly to the tumor site, silencing KRAS mutations at the genetic level. This localized delivery not only increases efficacy by concentrating the treatment in the tumor, but it also reduces systemic side effects. Silexion’s next-generation candidate, SIL-204, is an optimized siRNA formulation designed to target pan-KRAS G12x mutations, positioning it to treat a broader range of KRAS-driven cancers beyond pancreatic cancer, such as lung and colorectal cancers. In Phase 2 trials for locally advanced pancreatic cancer, Silexion's LODER™ platform showed a 9.3-month improvement in overall survival when combined with standard chemotherapy. Additionally, the objective response rate (ORR) increased from 20% with chemotherapy alone to 55% with the combination, and in some cases, tumors that were initially non-resectable became operable after treatment with LODER™. These results are especially encouraging given the limited options available for pancreatic cancer patients. SIL-204, is expected to enter Phase 2/3 clinical trials in 2025-2026. What makes Silexion particularly intriguing is its current market valuation. Valued at aproximatly just ~$9 million following its SPAC merger, the company’s valuation could be perceived as low when compared to some of its peers, especially given its innovative technology and promising clinical achievements. Some have wondered whether this low valuation has more to do with dynamics post-SPAC companies. If Silexion can report positive results in its later-stage trials, the company’s outlook could dramatically improve, reflecting the potential of its RNAi-based platform. Like NXP900, SIL-204 could potentially have vast applications across multiple KRAS-driven cancer types, making Silexion a company to watch closely as it advances through clinical development. Nuvectis Pharma: Targeting NSCLC and Beyond by Inhibiting SRC/YES1 Kinases Nuvectis Pharma (NASDAQ: NVCT) has been quietly making strides in the precision oncology sector, developing innovative therapies aimed at overcoming treatment resistance in hard-to-treat cancers. Its lead candidate, NXP900, targets NSCLC by inhibiting the SRC/YES1 kinases, which play critical roles in cancer cell survival and resistance to current therapies. This approach positions NXP900 as a potential game-changer in the treatment of NSCLC, particularly in patients who have developed resistance to EGFR and ALK inhibitors, such as AstraZeneca’s Tagrisso and Novartis’ Alecensa. NXP900 is still in the early stages of clinical development, currently undergoing Phase 1 trials. However, preclinical studies have already shown that it has strong anti-tumor activity in resistant NSCLC models. Even more promising is its potential application beyond NSCLC. Like Summit's ivonescimab, NXP900 focuses on resistance, but it also has broader applications due to its ability to target multiple cancer types driven by SRC/YES1 pathways. This versatility makes it a promising asset not just for NSCLC but also for other difficult-to-treat cancers like squamous cell carcinomas. In addition to NXP900, Nuvectis is advancing NXP800, another precision oncology candidate that is further along in the clinical development process. NXP800 is currently in Phase 1b trials, targeting ARID1a-mutated cancers such as ovarian and endometrial cancers. The early clinical data for NXP800 is promising, showing positive responses in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. With two strong candidates in the pipeline, Nuvectis is positioning itself as a formidable player in the precision oncology landscape. As Summit’s ivonescimab continues to gain attention, Nuvectis’ earlier-stage NXP900, with its NSCLC focus and beyond, could see similar success in the future if clinical results continue to trend positively. Scorpion Therapeutics: Pioneering Mutant-Selective Therapies Scorpion Therapeutics is redefining the frontier of precision oncology with its focus on delivering highly selective small molecules targeting validated and previously undruggable cancer mutations. Its lead candidate, STX-478, is a mutant-selective, allosteric PI3Kα inhibitor currently in Phase 1/2 trials for advanced solid tumors. Early data presented at the ESMO Congress 2024 highlighted its potential, with STX-478 demonstrating a 23% overall response rate in breast cancer and a 21% response rate across all tumor types, positioning it as a potentially best-in-class PI3Kα inhibitor. STX-478 is notable for its ability to spare wild-type PI3Kα activity in normal tissues, avoiding the toxicities seen with previous PI3Kα inhibitors, such as hyperglycemia and rash. Tumor reductions were seen in 72% of patients treated with STX-478 as a monotherapy, with circulating tumor DNA levels dropping in 86% of patients. This mutant-selective precision could help overcome the limitations of existing PI3Kα inhibitors, which have struggled with dose-limiting toxicities. In July 2024, Scorpion raised $150 million in a Series C financing round, co-led by Frazier Life Sciences and Lightspeed Venture Partners. The additional funding will support the advancement of STX-478 and other pipeline assets, positioning Scorpion for further clinical success. Scorpion’s pipeline includes a broad range of wholly-owned compounds that target both validated and novel cancer targets, positioning the company for future expansion into larger patient populations. As STX-478 progresses through clinical development, Scorpion is poised to become a significant player in the precision oncology space, making it another company worth watching closely. Optimistic Outlook for Precision Oncology The precision oncology space is experiencing a golden era of innovation, with companies like Summit Therapeutics, Nuvectis Pharma, Silexion Therapeutics, and Scorpion Therapeutics leading the charge. As the focus shifts towards targeted therapies that address resistance mechanisms, the market is increasingly favoring companies with novel approaches and broad applications. Summit’s meteoric rise has shown that there is tremendous potential for companies that can demonstrate efficacy in overcoming cancer resistance. While Summit has already captured much of the current attention, companies like Nuvectis, Silexion, and Scorpion, with their earlier-stage pipelines, offer exciting opportunities for the industry to keep a close eye on. As these companies continue to report clinical data and advance through trials, the potential for breakthroughs in treating some of the most difficult cancers grows stronger. With targeted therapies offering the possibility of overcoming resistance without the need for chemotherapy, the future of cancer treatment looks brighter than ever. For those in the oncology space, keeping a close eye on emerging players like Nuvectis, Silexion, and Scorpion could lead to transformative developments as the field of precision oncology continues to evolve. * * * This update may include speculative forward looking statements.

This EV-Based Small Cap Has Partnerships With Walmart, NASA And The U.S. Postal Service – Is It On Your Radar?

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Canoo Inc. (NASDAQ: GOEV), a high-tech advanced mobility company bringing electric vehicles – namely lifestyle delivery vehicles – to commercial operators, seems to have made strides in its quest to create a state-of-the-art EV commercial fleet. The company has inked deals with some of the biggest names in the U.S., including Walmart Inc. (NYSE: WMT), the U.S. Postal Service, the Department of Defense and even NASA. So what makes these large industry players and government agencies want to partner with a relatively unknown brand? After all, Canoo doesn’t have the name recognition of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA). However, it does have scalable technology, which it says sets it apart. EV Is Here to Stay Over the long haul, electric fleets for commercial and government customers have a lower total cost of ownership and don’t require costly fuel. But Canoo says it takes it a step further by using one-third the parts of traditional internal combustion engines (ICEs). The maintenance schedule is almost an afterthought thanks to its advanced computer architecture, which in most cases, can remotely diagnose and repair its EVs via over-the-air (OTA) software. The company also offers a warranty that covers up to eight years, something not common in the auto industry. Canoo is going after the last-mile delivery market with its fully electric Lifestyle Delivery Vehicles (LDV). The LDVs have a last-mile delivery optimized cabin and customized cargo space. Last-mile delivery refers to the very last step of the delivery process when a parcel is moved from one location to another. Canoo reports that it utilizes true steer-by-wire technology, reducing moving parts and cabin intrusion – resulting in more usable interior space, better driver ergonomics and the addition of a panoramic window to improve road visibility. The LDV is engineered for high-frequency stop-and-go deliveries and speedy vehicle-to-door drop-off, including grocery and food/meal delivery, says Canoo. Walmart Is In All those attributes are part of what led Walmart to select Canoo as its EV fleet provider. Walmart inked a deal to purchase 4,500 all-electric delivery vehicles from Canoo, beginning with the LDV. The retailer has the option to purchase up to 10,000 units. The vehicles are to be used to deliver online orders in a sustainable way which will also contribute to Walmart’s goal to achieve zero emissions by 2040, the companies said when originally announcing the deal. Canoo is headquartered in Justin, TX, and operates manufacturing sites in Oklahoma. While that is Canoo’s biggest order to date, the company is also making inroads with the U.S. government, inking deals with NASA, the Department of Defense and the U.S. Postal Service. All have the potential to expand into something more. Take the U.S. Post Office deal for starters. The postal service agreed to buy six right-hand drive versions of the LDV 190 as part of its move to electrify and modernize the postal service’s delivery fleet. Canoo delivered the vehicles this May, and the USPS is using them on mail routes. Additionally, the USPS is investing $40 billion to upgrade and improve the organization's processing, transportation and delivery networks. If it likes what it sees from Canoo, that could mean more purchases down the road. Meanwhile, NASA had also purchased three Crew Transportation Vehicles (CTVs) to transport the astronauts to the launch pad for the Artemis lunar missions. The CTVs are engineered to carry fully suited astronauts, flight support crew and equipment to the launch pad. “We are thrilled to be a part of the Artemis missions and to deliver NASA’s first zero-emission built for mission crew transportation vehicles,” said Tony Aquila, Chairman and CEO of Canoo. “It’s a very proud day for Canoo and all of our partners who worked so hard to ensure we perform our part to transport the astronauts for the first nine miles of every launch.” Beyond LDVs Beyond electric vehicles, Canoo is busy supplying batteries to the Department of Defense, expanding a deal with the U.S. Navy. Canoo’s proprietary battery system is modular and can support various military applications and configurations. The batteries harbor 5kWh modules that utilize 2170 cylindrical cells, but can fit other form factors and cell chemistries. The company says the expansion of the partnership further validates its technology and reliability. It is also delivering the Light Tactical Vehicle (LTV) to the U.S. Army. From fully electric vehicles that can transport cargo, goods and people to batteries powered by wind and solar, Canoo is doing its part for a greener tomorrow. It may not be a household name yet, but with some big-name players as partners, it's one investors may want to keep an eye on. Keep a look out for more Canoo Inc. announcements here.
