There is a dealer I visit every so often because they sell a lot of high end cars, but they also get these completely random cars sometimes. They had both the Cybertruck and a Fisker Ocean at the same time. To be honest, the Fisker in person does look pretty clean. But based off of all the reviews and drama, it seems that’s probably the only redeemable thing. I did think the video of one of the higher ups trying to contact Marques was pretty funny.

As someone who regularly pays the early adopter tax, this is egregious. I bought the framework 13 AMD edition on launch. It was a mess but it was a functional product, and I was actually able to buy one. I purchased first gen AMD ryzen on launch. It was a buggy mess and it needed a lot of improvement, but I could buy one. I have uaed Radeon GPUs in servers and now in my gaming PC for a while now. They're buggy messes, but I can at least buy them. With fisker, you can't even fucking buy their product. Like, originally it was just a buggy mess and it needed improvement but now you can't even get a damn car.

@chemicalhap 3 ай бұрын

Fisker failed once. Really there was nothing to show that Henrik Fisker did much differently. The details matter and one should always do their homework when being an early adopter. I often do use early products...but I usually do enough research that I go into it eyes wide open. EVs are not early products now. But Fisker Ocean was a gamble from a company that had too many vendors to pay with too much of a margin of failure. Rivian and Lucid had more than enough runway where they could withstand early issues and early low numbers. Fisker from the beginning didn't have enough and was very clear they didn't have enough from the start. You don't take the gamble yourself if you have limited funds on a large purchase like this. Broad rules are usually stupid....an informed adaptable mindset is usually best

You can be an early adopter/access to something like a video game or something not so major/serious if you feel strongly about it but early access/adopter of a car is insane considering safety not only to you but other people on the road.

@bryanbutte 3 ай бұрын

I was excited to hear about a $25,000 small electric SUV, but when I realized that the Ultra and the Extreme were so closely priced after the discounts, I knew they didn't have any of the Sports. Why would you price the Sport at $10,000 under the mid-tier? The only explanation is for marketing. They knew there were no Sport models available, so they priced it at a point that seemed low enough for consumers who are unsure of electric cars still, but high enough that it didn't sound like a complete, outright lie.

There are far better cheap options now arriving certainly now arriving in Europe at least the new Citroen 3c3 is supposed to be about 25,000 euros not as plush as the Fisker but at least it'll work and you'll geta warranty. The new Fiat 600 La Prima starts at £26,000and the 500 at £28,000.

@bryanbutte 3 ай бұрын

@@norfolkngood8960 I will agree that in other markets, more options are available, but not all are necessarily better options. The Citroen 3c3 scored 0 stars safety rating by the NCAP. At the time of this comment, I believe the Fisker Ocean and the Fiat 600 are untested. However, in the US market, we don't have a ton of reliable, long range options. The cheapest new electric vehicle currently is the Nissan Leaf, which still runs $29,000 with a range of 149 miles. If you live rural and drive to work every day, you can easily out range 149 miles a day, especially considering electric cars are less efficient at highway speeds. Between the lack of a good charging network and battery degradation on lower range electric cars, many Americans want higher ranges. Ultimately though, opting for something over over 200 miles means the cheapest option starts at $36,000. Given everything going on right now, many Americans just can't afford to pay that kind of money for a car, so we stick with ICE vehicles, which is disappointing, but what can you do. Hybrids exist, but companies keep putting CVT transmissions into them without fixing the issues that are leaving many owners in rentals for months at a time (unfortunately that comes from experience).

Hopefully if Fisker will do the right thing and open source the car software so people in the community can attempt to fix it. But I doubt that they will and a ton of people will be stuck with perfectly good cars with broken software that will never be fixed. Most of which will end up in a landfill once the owners get tired of dealing with all of the software issues. When a company goes bankrupt it should be required by law that the source code for the software used in that product to be open sourced so that the community can continue support if they want.

Multiple people have looked for the Sport model and no one could find one within the available inventory and using the configure your Ocean, the Sport model can be configured but that means that you are configuring a model that is not yet built and seems like it never will be and, for those, they are not discounted in the available inventory section.

I think a huge problem with these newer car companies, is they're trying to build their company up the wrong way round. If you're starting a boat building company, you don't start out trying to build and sell multi-million dollar yachts and super-yachts. You start out with dinghies and smaller river/fishing boats and work up from there. Gain a reputation and customer base and use that to help you climb up the business size rungs. Modern car companies are ALL trying to skip those steps and get right to the top straight away, and then wonder why they keep failing. Tesla only succeeded because it had someone who was already extremely rich behind it, they were one of the first to truly figure out electric cars properly, and they focused on building a regular-ass looking car rather than a giant SUV monstrosity. But they've had their own teething issues they've had to weather.

Fisker Ocean One. A classic in the making. Give it 3 years and the same Austin Evans will be telling his audience how cool the car is.

now with this video the price dropped even further down and that 35k car is now probably gonna be 15k with all the bells and whistles 😂😂😂

I would possibly buy the fire sale because I’m interested in tinkering with it, but it would need to be a daily driver for me. And that doesn’t make for a good tinkering car.

Saw one yesterday. It honestly isn’t bad looking. Just yikes on the software and company

So I guess what happens when the company closes and people still have the cars. Do they just drive it until it just stops functioning due to software issues and they are just SOL?

I feel bad for all the staff that were involved in that "sale". I expect a lot of work went on behind the scene to have the rug pulled out from under them.

Due to the current economic situation of the manufacturer Fisker Group Inc. and the Fisker sales companies in Europe, there is a risk of limited support and limited services for the vehicles. Buyers must expect a permanent loss of the enforceability of claims for material defects and warranty claims. By concluding a vehicle purchase contract after April 3, 2024, the buyer of a Fisker Ocean declares that he has been informed accordingly and nevertheless wishes to purchase a Fisker Ocean in view of the risk described.
