In a market where even the biggest automakers are struggling to see major growth in their EV efforts, with many dialing back on their electric ambitions, smaller EV makers are in an even more precarious spot.

    Almost 5K vehicles in inventory, 6 week pause is smart in the financial situation they are in. No need to put $ on hand in producing more vehicles till an OEM deal is signed.

      Very beautiful cars and the rooftop solar panels are amazing and I like the portable charging cord too it plugs right into my 110v wall outlet! Fisker really is a legendary car designer! Better get this stock while it’s cheap boys n girls!

    Of the ones mentioned, I think Canoo will make it. It’s frustrating how long it has taken but they seem to be on the right track.

    in my opinion ‘Ford’ should partner with Fisker. Gves them a jump start in having EV Platforms in SUV & Small pick ups… ( Maverick EV).
