Fisker has revealed its "production intent" Ocean all-electric SUV, bringing the sub-$40k EV to the LA Auto Show 2021 after several years of promises. The base 2023 Ocean Sport will have more than 250 miles of range, the automaker says, ramping up to more than 350 miles in the Ocean Extreme trim, though production isn't expected to kick off for another year.
EV-maker Fisker may be busy working on its Ocean electric SUV, but that hasn't stopped it from taking time out to build a new Popemobile. The custom electric car was revealed during a private audience at the Vatican this week, with Henrik Fisker meeting Pope Francis to show off what's being billed as the first all-electric vehicle designed especially for the leader of the Catholic Church.
Fisker is promising more range and more power for its Ocean electric SUV than first expected, though the new EV is still a long way from production kicking off. The announcement, part of Fisker's Q4 2020 financial results, comes on the heels of a new partnership between the automaker and Foxconn to produce the EV that will follow the Ocean.
Fisker and Foxconn are teaming up on an an electric vehicle, with the EV-company and the manufacturing heavyweight aiming for go far beyond the niche production in the automaker's past. Codenamed Project PEAR - or "Personal Electric Automotive Revolution" - the goal is to make a more affordable EV that can hit the sort of sales numbers more commonplace among mainstream gas models.
Fisker is a name that's been around for a while, and the company is currently working towards producing its Ocean electric crossover by 2022. On Friday, the company announced that it was going public and would be listed on the New York Stock Exchange with the symbol "FSR." Fisker could expedite its desire to go public by a special-purpose acquisition sponsored through Apollo Global Management.
Fisker has finally found someone to build its Ocean all-electric SUV, inking a deal which the EV startup says puts it on track for production kicking off by the end of 2022. Unveiled earlier this year, the Fisker Ocean is the American automaker's take on electrifying the best-selling body style in the US, but with a price tag significantly undercutting what most luxury electric SUVs currently cost.
Fisker may have big plans for its electric vehicles, but the automaker aims to use Volkswagen's EV platform underneath upcoming SUVs like the Ocean. Created by - and named after - former Karma founder Henrik Fisker, the automaker confirmed plans today to go public. In the process, it pulled back the curtain on some of the mysteries beneath its sheet metal.
The Fisker Ocean with the Force E package is an extreme off-road version of Henrik Fisker’s hotly-anticipated all-electric SUV. The Ocean made quite a splash with its stylish looks, sustainable vegan-themed construction, and built-in solar panels in the roof. But with the Force E or Force Electric package, it transforms the Ocean from a silent boulevard cruiser to an all-conquering off-road machine.
Fisker has confirmed pricing, production, and tech for its new Ocean EV, with the Tesla Model Y rival set to start at $37,499 in the US before the federal tax incentive. The electric SUV actually opened up for reservations back in November 2019, though at the time would-be buyers didn't quite know what they were signing up for.
Fisker has thrown open the reservation books for its upcoming SUV, with the Fisker Ocean following in the tire-tracks of the Tesla Cybertruck by inviting would-be EV drivers to pin a place in line. Like the Cybertruck, however, there'll be a wait involved, with Fisker suggesting that Ocean won't actually begin production until late 2021 at the earliest.
Electric car company Fisker has revealed its newest model, an EV SUV the automaker promises will start under $40,000. Taking on the Tesla Model Y, when it goes on sale in a few years time, the as-yet-unnamed SUV promises cutting-edge technology along with around 300 miles of zero-emissions range, though we still have plenty of questions.
Fisker has pulled the wraps off the Emotion luxury EV at CES 2018 and the car looks fantastic. The Fisker Emotion brings with it level 4 autonomous driving and what Fisker calls the "interior of the future". The interior of the car offers individually designed seats and has "tailor-made luxury touches."
