Fisker said reserves for the Fisker Ocean SUV, which is expected to start production in the 2022 quarter, have reached 7062.
“Registered interest” figures reached 30,277.
The bad news is that the numbers are minimal compared to Tesla’s CyberTruck, which officially showed bookings of 250,000 days after the release, and booked more pre-orders at a phenomenal rate of 5873/day, even months later. According to a fan site that helps track registration numbers, Cybertruck’s pre-orders now far exceed 713,000. But that’s not exactly a fair comparison: Fisker isn’t Tesla right now, doesn’t have a featured CEO who owns several successful corporations in revolutionary fields, and has not yet been dedicated to shipping high-quality electric vehicles.
So, in general, it’s not that bad.
“We were aiming to have 5,000 bookings until the end of July, so it’s encouraging to see this global point of interest in the Fisker Ocean,” CEO Henrik Fisker said in a statement. “We have not only noticed an acceleration in the booking rate, but also a continuous accumulation in the number of other people who register with us for more information.”
The Ocean SUV will be the most durable car in the world, according to Fisker, with “a vegan inner and recycled fabric everywhere.” It will have a diversity of 250 to three hundred miles, and perhaps the most interesting, a very flexible lease with a low down payment. It is also an electric SUV that, has an amazing look (yes, subjective), is also recognizable as a traditional vehicle.
In other words, it doesn’t have Cybertruck’s elegant sci-fi zombie apocalypse.
Although Fisker will deliver a vehicle until 2022, it has big plans.
The company “plans to expand its portfolio to a variety of 4 cars until 2025,” with a sports sedan, a sports crossover and a pickup truck. Fisker plans to achieve this purpose through platforms and parts from other automakers and automotive supplies. This will restrict the company’s flexibility in creating ultra-innovative cars, but it also deserves to particularly accelerate Fisker’s time-to-market, while spending much less cash for studies and development.
In addition, the Ocean SUV will be delivered in a special excessive all-terrain package, the Force-E model. It will get up, you will have a cover plate, a roof gallery, tow hooks and power sockets for the tools.
