Fisker, the American start-up led by engineer and entrepreneur Henrik Fisker, has announced that it plans to enter the UK market in 2023. The car manufacturer intends on opening a consumer experience center in London in 2022 to allow potential buyers to check out the Ocean electric SUV up close. Fisker has also announced a partnership with Cox Automotive and Rivus Fleet Solutions to provide vehicle servicing, maintenance, deliveries, fleet management, valuations and reselling in the UK.
The Ocean will be built by Magna
Automotive in Europe and the British market will be “one of the first” outside
the U.S. where it will be sold, shortly after its launch in Q4 2022. In
October, the car manufacturer announced its European headquarters will be
located in Munich, Germany and will also open a consumer experience center in
Munich in Q4 2021.
Fisker has managed to keep key technical specifications about the Ocean under wraps, but has confirmed it will be offered in rear- and four-wheel drive configurations. The standard four-wheel drive model should pump out over 302 hp while a flagship variant with even more grunt will sprint to 96 km/h in less than three seconds.
U.S. pricing for the Fisker Ocean will
start at US$ 37,499 before incentives.
