    I still believe FISKER will bounce back.. due to its great SUV with very unique features, like Solar Roof, lowering rear window, digital rear camera, Taco Trays…Best part is option to choose between AWD and FWD. Other cars are fixed either FWD or AWD. But we can choose that option in FISKER, so reduce the power consumption.

    I’m a FOO owner, and other than the software issues that look to be getting better soon , this car is amazing. The build quality is excellent with no exterior or interior issues to speak of, other than needing to replace the air vents. The customer service is significantly better than when I took delivery of the car in October. They sent me the parts and the next day the tech came to my house to repair. No other dealer or manufacturer has done better in my experience. I’m rooting for Fisker, competition is key for a better consumer outcome.

      Tesla had a solid 8 years to get their software decent. People expecting perfection from Fiskers software in the first year is very strange. I think most folks are low-key hurt the Ocean is a much better product than the Y in terms of build quality and styling, so they go extra hard on its software shortfall. I’m keeping my preorder for the Alaska and I’m very happy Henrik mentioned “it’s ready to go.” Hopefully Christmas 24 I’ll be getting some good news.😅

    Fisker and Vinfast? I know Vinfast is struggling to get their EVs, like the VF8, to beat simple EVs like the Chevy Bolt in range, not to mention Teslas. With Vinfast massive capital and Fiskers prowess for EV efficiency, that would be a massive collaboration. I can see a future where Vinfast VF Wild and Fiskers Alaska, perhaps becoming the same truck. They both look gorgeous, both targeting compact truck market, both have folding midgate.. interesting times.

    Nissan needs to gain all the knowledge and techniques all they can from this partnership so they can improve their EV offerings, but personally I would rather Nissan just acquire Fisker, Fisker is cheap right now their stock is tanking, Nissan can just literally rebadge their products into either Nissan or Infiniti. Fisker needs Nissan more than Nissan needs Fisker. If its just a partnership and a cash infusion then Fisker will still go bust, they don’t have a factory of their own in USA, but if Nissan buys them out then they can retrofit their cars into Nissan’s own North American plants.

    This is a terrible car company ran by a terrible person. You can’t make this up about Fiskar it’s a terrible company. They are headquartered in Manhattan Beach California. Why would you do that a very expensive city and you don’t manufacture anything. The reason why you would have your headquarters in Manhattan Beach is because the soul sucking CEO that owns that company or runs it lives in a multi million dollar home in Manhattan Beach. Do you know this man would not want to drive more than 5 miles to the headquarters of his worthless company. People should’ve seen the writing on the wall when this company took well over $100 million from the federal government and declare bankruptcy immediately but yet this man continue to live in his mansion and continue to run the company. Only people from X Soviet satellite states Could possibly take so many millions of dollars from people and keep a straight face living in your mansion having your headquarters in a city that you don’t manufacture anything

The rep was telling me an order to financing/leasing you have to have ownership or leasing/ finance any of these brands an order to qualify. I’m talking high end brands cars. The rep listed these brands. I was are you kidding me just to get a Fisker Ocean flex lease or financed through them only if you had one of those brands cars. Oh well, lost my service!

There’s other famous reviewers who come to the same conclusion. Fisker went bankrupt already once with his previous cars and he will go bankrupt again. He might be a good designer but he doesn’t know how to build a car at a profitable price, nor manufacture it in high production numbers.
