The Fisker Ocean electric SUV will be
followed by three additional vehicles. In an official announcement made earlier
this week, the company said that these new products will launch between 2023
and 2025, and each one “will have their unique character, moving away from the
auto industry convention of creating similar products, just in different
sizes”.
Previewed by the 2017 Emotion Concept, one
of them will be a super sports sedan. The model was supposed to enter
production two years later, but the company put a pin in its development. The
range will be completed by a “sports crossover”, which will probably be a more
elegant take on the Ocean, though nothing is known about it yet. Last but not
least, a pickup truck, which should take on the Tesla Cybertruck but with a
more down-to-earth design, as previewed by the teaser image that accompanied
the release.
Meanwhile, the Ocean has exceeded their
expectations. The target was set at 5,000 reservations until the end of July,
and they received reservations and deposits for 7,062 units. This model will
enter production in the fourth quarter of 2022, as Fisker is undergoing
negotiations with the Volkswagen Group to build it on their EV-dedicated MEB
platform. The Ocean has a targeted starting price of US$ 37,499, excluding
incentives, and with its 80 kWh battery pack fully charged, it will offer a
driving range of 402-483 km.
