The plan of the vehicle is being driven by Ulrich Kranz, the ex-President of Canoo, as well as previous directors from Tesla, Lamborghini, and Porsche. The product side of the framework is driven by previous Tesla supervisor Stuart Arbors, while wellbeing designing, testing, and administrative issues are taken care of by ex-Passage chief Desi Ujkashevic.
