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.

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.

@bryanbutte7 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).

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

This isn't an EV problem, I see people berating EVs and holding this up as an example. This nothing to do with the fuel source, all car manufacturers make bad stuff (yes Ford ecoboost 3 cylinder i'm looking at you and VW with dieselgate as 2 examples) this is to do with bad management at a car company and shoving out unfinished products. That can happen to any product whether it be EV, diesel, petrol or white goods or anything. It's happened in the software industry for years now, push out software like a game that's a mess and then needs patches. The internet and broadband has allowed those companies to get away with it further as it's now a lot easier for large patches to download and nearly computers are online most of the time. The car industry seems to be following the same route with car software, shove the car out and then send OTA patches to get bugs fixed and get it working. Governments need to get a handle on this right now, maybe we need a version of ATOL for the car industry to protect car buyers from bad cars, bad companies and collapses like this especially given the vast number of startups making cars now

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 proclaimed that the Ocean is the Most Sustainable Car in the World! Today, it's the Least Sustainable Sustainable Car in the World. What a difference in just a few months?

A company that’s going out of business because of tough economic times and business hardships isn’t a scam. They sold a product, the people got the product they bought they just made a bad buying decision happens everyday.

Buying one of those cars makes sense only if you’re able to make your own replacement parts and software updates. With a little collaboration from the dying company, there could be a viable DIY community, but I doubt it.

First time I'd ever heard of Fisker was an episode of Mac Miller and the Most Dope Family, where he got one for being Complex Man of the Year. Since then, the only times I'd hear of it was in songs. Childish Gambino and Jaden Smith have both mentioned Fiskers. I thought they were doing very well, apparently not lol

Fisker more like fisher price
@EfrainQuezada5 ай бұрын
At what point does the price make sense? Im seeing a lot floating around 27k and im feeling tempted to make a dumb decision. What happens if fisker dies again? No more support, no more parts? I really wnat to know what parts are proprietary and what could be replaced with something else.

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.

Fisker is a prime example of when nepotism goes wrong. Geeta drove (pun) Henrik's vision thru the ground. As the kids say "iykyn"

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.

If I am not mistaken, this video tells a FAKE story, and I do not doubt that this GUY is not telling the truth. We need to listen to the other side of the story “ FISKER” I see that many content creators and KZbinrs are overblown the concerns about FISKSR. Which absolutely disgusting?

If fisker owners are lucky and fisker unlocks all the software before they close the last door. And the price drops between 15k and say 22k The Ocean might turn into a pretty fun cult car supported by a small community of enthusiasts that will provide support. With a software unlocked Who knows what they'll be able to do. They might get features and mods to work that were never intended.

A friend of mine bought a Fisker Ocean Ultra. Honestly, the car's not that bad. Unfortunately, support for this car will be short lived like Android phones in the past. He also bought it like about a month ago and a half ago. Like a week before Marcus dropped his review and also before the prices plummeted.

Holy shaba. Fisker just became the "I bought this car for $700 as my first car" of the 21st century. [For context, remember how our parents/grandparents used to say they got their first car used for a couple hundred buck back in the 60s-80s? yea, we're at that point for EVs here in 2024]

I understand why you didn’t go through with it but I think you should have anyway. You would have easily made back the money doing a video every 3 months going over the state of the company and car.
