NewsChannel 8 test drives a Canoo for the first time

It's been called by some a lunchbox on wheels. It may not be a flattering descriptor, but one that Canoo CEO Tony Aquila says will fall away quickly when someone starts a test drive.

"The car system has always sold you from a distance. What we're selling you is what it can do for you. You think holy s___, and then we take you outside and your mind starts to fall in love with the outside," he said.

Canoo invited NewsChannel 8's Tyler Butler to test drive their gamma prototype cars, starting with their test lander, which is essentially what the Canoo is without the body.

That body that Oklahomans are coming to recognize is designed to maximize interior space, essentially wrapping the front of the car around the driver with plenty of room for passengers or cargo.
