Fisker Ocean - Detailed Overview and Review

[@MadDogEighty80]

The Fisker Ocean and Polestars are the first EVs that really caught my attention.

[@EV-365]

Both companies design beautiful cars that appear to be well built!

[@CAC2024USA]

And better than Tesla !

[@ggg2nd]

Wow, this was one of the best Fisker Ocean One review I have been seeing for the last year and a half. Keep uploading more like it.

[@EV-365]

Thank you for the nice compliment and thanks for watching! I will definitely get more videos out soon!

[@martinmcnulty8155]

Love the Fisker Ocean such a stunning car. Great video very knowledgeable. Hope you make a lot more about Fisker.

[@EV-365]

Thanks for watching and positive feedback. Lot more videos coming!

[@moderntech7619]

really well made EV ! Hope to see many more Oceans on the roads in 2024!

[@EV-365]

Once they start delivering the Sport version, at that price, I anticipate they will be pretty popular.

[@ashshafiq5787]

Thanks! that means a lot, you saved me my savings of 40k. I had reserved one FOE and I will cancel it right now.

[@EV-365]

Yes, cancel it! Unfortunately, what could have a been a great EV, was ruined by poor operations.

[@nielsen6725]

Wow, what a beautiful car 🌊👍

[@EV-365]

We agree! Fisker can design some great looking vehicles.

[@JoeyBlogs007]

I prefer the display in landscape mode, just like a PC. I think ergonomically it looks better. Blends better with the dash.

[@JoeyBlogs007]

22:40 They need to supply a keyboard that snaps to that tray, that allows you to use the tablet display as a PC. i.e. via a bootable micro USB key with Windows or Linux on it.

[@EV-365]

Yes, I am a landscape guy as well. Just looks and feels a lot cleaner to me. Yes, the keyboard idea is fantastic! They should be able to do that with bluetooth you would think.

Am Scottish and clearly your not originally from texas ! No disrespect to texans but the accent drives me mental 😮 enjoyed watching tour video on the fisker ocean 🌊 glad to hear people being positive all you read is fisker is finished the share price and its going bankrupt. So great to see positivity

Solid review and you covered all the most important aspects. You also have a great broadcasting voice. Quick correction regarding DC fast charge. Even on 350 kw chargers, the ONE maxes out at 200kw/h. I’ve gotten as high as 171, but that was briefly and most of the time its around 145kw/h. On a 150 kw/h charger, expect upwards of 115-120kw/h. This has been mostly on Electrify America and i have 2200 miles on my FOO.

[@EV-365]

Thanks for sharing your experience! I am seeing 200 kw/h and 250 kw/h posted in different areas, but I agree, I think the Ocean uses a 400-volt architecture that supports DC-fast charging rates of as much as 200 kW. I am going to try and do a charging speed test in the next few days and see what we get. Charging station typically never give you the posted speed, and if they do, only for a short period of time when the state of charge is on the lower end. We'll see what we get!

[@Jevpen787]

This looks great!

[@EV-365]

It really is a great looking design! Nailed it!

[@dianewallace6064]

I watched MB's video on the Fisker. So much was connectivity and app issues that an actual owner would not have.

[@Beverly_Life_Style]

I love this color, looks so cool with the design

[@JoeyBlogs007]

Perhaps you could get your own premium door handles 3D printed by a resin 3D printer service.

[@EV-365]

Love it. Adding a 3-D printer to the wishlist!

[@robertmiggins9652]

Great review - really great - but it's in park. I'm curious about how it feels when it does its job - meaning driving. How are the regenerative brakes, the feel, acceleration, etc.

[@EV-365]

I recorded the footage for the driving video right after this one. Will get that out soon! My videos get long sometimes so I like to split up the walk around and the drive! Sneak peak, I was really happy with how the vehicle drove and handled!

[@jasonpittman189]

That's how you review a new vehicle. Clear information mixed with enough excitement to keep us interested but not as a super fan boy! Can't wait for the Polestar 4 review. Do you have one on order?

[@EV-365]

Appreciate you watching! I have a buddy that almost pulled the trigger on the Polestar 4 but went Rivian instead. I don't have an order on one but we will try to get our hands on one for sure!

[@Angelboy99]

Why is the Fisker so heavy? This should certainly affect range and/or efficiency, no? Battery size is either 80kW or 115kW while the Tesla Y is 74kW. the Fisker Ocean curb weight is 5,369 lb, which is a lot. For reference, the Tesla Model Y Performance weight is 4,398 lbs (971 lbs or 18 percent less), while the heaviest Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Performance's weight is 5,018 lbs

[@EV-365]

I’m sure it’s primarily the extra battery. Also Tesla builds their cars very lean and screen control heavy. Fisker has a decent amount of buttons so all that extra stuff to make those buttons go adds up. Also more stuff that can break of course!

[@memyselfundeye]

Battery is 113 but 107 usable

[@EV-365]

@@memyselfundeye thanks! I was curious about that!

[@Beverly_Life_Style]

Wow, the solar roof is so cool, like in space.

[@EV-365]

Very unique addition and actually will get you some miles!

[@ashshafiq5787]

Do you recommend buying Fisker at this time?

[@EV-365]

Absolutely not! It really is too bad. The vehicle could have been great.

[@markstewart7559]

Love that colour, what is it please?

[@EV-365]

Yes, it is awesome. It is the Big Sur Blue. It is a matte paint color. Thanks for watching!

[@markstewart7559]

Thank you, looks great 👍🏻

[@dianewallace6064]

Raj, thanks for loving the haters. Someone's got to, I guess. It's not going to me although I do take my R1T and Ioniq 6 to car shows in North Carolina which is like banging my head against a wall. I had one drunk guy run off yelling at me "You will perish in flames" just like the Keymaster's (Rick Moranis) words in Ghostbusters. Love me some Ghostbusters but this is 2024 not 1984.

[@dianewallace6064]

Cheap EVs. Yes the mini is a good price. I live in North Carolina and I bought my Ioniq 6 AWD for 38k. The Fiat 500ev is going to be 32k and 140 miles range. The Volvo ec30 will be 30k to my knowledge.

[@tonyn3227]

Nice looking, but questionable whether he will survive or not. I'd be afraid to buy one now, as there are no service centers , lack if support, leggy software, etc. I do have sport on order way back. But cost has increased to $39k, range decreased to 230 miles from 250 originaly promised. huge delivery fee almost $3k, with new model 3 highland available, I may just loose my $250 from fisker and just get tesla.

[@EV-365]

There is definitely risk with going with a new automaker, but part of being an early adopter. Why is you quoted delivery fee so high? Mine was $550ish before I switched over to the One which has delivery included.

[@RayNLA]

Did you make the right decision?

[@dianewallace6064]

I own an R1T and Ioniq 6 and have realized that unless you own it, you can't review it properly. I've heard many incorrect statements by influencers about vehicles that they do not own. I rely on owner content.

[@EV-365]

100%. That is why we try to live with the vehicles and use them daily! I know I can't always do that, but whenever we can, we will!

[@dianewallace6064]

@@EV-365 Thanks

[@madalincosma2531]

350kW??

That was a mistake! I think it can accept 200 kw at best. Real word, about 175 kw. Have a charging video coming up that will speak to this.

[@madalincosma2531]

@EV-365 no report above 180 190 kW so far...rating is 250kW though

[@EV-365]

@@madalincosma2531 I saw 250 from Henrik as well based on the CATL batteries but is this confirmed as the rating since he said that? I need to back calculate from their 80% in 30minish number they put up.

[@madalincosma2531]

@EV-365 the 10-80% heavily relies on both charging curve and battery capacity. The capacity we know and it's specced, but the curve of course it's not specced. I've seen credible online evidence of 33 34mins for 10-80%. Rating is 34m35s. The 250kW rating seems to be gone...

[@theslimshadyist]

Legendary designer but an incompetent CEO.

[@EV-365]

Legend for sure on the design side. I'm holding out hope for him on the CEO side. Seems like a decent enough guy. Perhaps this Nissan merger happens and helps them out. Despite the negative press recently, it really is a great car...assuming the software roadmap is executed correctly.

[@Teamvenomracing]

Meanwhile, Fisker stock falls to the $1 per share mark. People, stop buying from companies that are not going to be around in a few years. Cool car with no future from Fisker.

[@EV-365]

It's the fun of being an early adopter! I think it's great to support new companies! Even Tesla struggled for years, and they made it out OK!

[@ronkonkoma4223]

What an A hole team venom is. Currently around 15 states have near future EV mandates, over 20 have emission inspections. The Fisker Ocean is the best bang for your buck Ev with multiple patented features that no other vehicle has and just happens to be the most environmentally friendly vehicles made with recycled materials. I think Fisker has the best chance by far to rival Tesla. The Ocean looks waaaaay better than Tesla cars.

[@moderntech7619]

I think Fisker has concentrated first in the EU since they are made there. But their new business model, along with all the accolades they have garnered in 2023/24, will start to build momemtum here in the US. As the reviewer noted, the Ocean design was meant to appeal to the American buyer, which happens to be the 2nd largest EV market after China. So, despite the stock tanking to $1, I think this company has a future. The C-suite needs to execute the plan at a high level in 2024 & 2025, and I believe Wall Street will change its tune. For those with $ to commit to this company at this high risk stage, you have the potential for a 10X bagger.

[@tinattv]

What a waste of time to read your unqualified comment. In truth, at the moment, NOBODY knows what will happen to the company. But: I own and drive an Ocean Extreme and can say: They sell and deliver very high-quality cars. The reported problems with software and service have become much better. I have no problems at all. It is a premium product. The best car I've ever driven. I love it every day. They will make it.
