Review: Fisker Ocean One Launch Edition Makes Strong 1st Impression

[@martinlozano2913]

I believe this car would be perfect for my family!! Wow. Great video.

[@martinmcnulty8155]

Love the Fisker Ocean. Such a cool car.

[@robinpetersson3081]

I absolutely love my Fisker. Built solidly, drives super smoothly, accelerates like no other car I have had, and I love all the bells and whistle. The semi-see through glass roof is so unique and techy looking. Love California mode too with all the windows down. I have never in my life had people approach me and be curious about what car I have and tell me they love my car. Thanks for promoting this car that's deserving of a spot among the big cars.

[@michaelsmith9532]

how much? if you don't mind me asking. and what color?

[@robinpetersson3081]

@@michaelsmith9532 with taxes and all little extra fees it spilled into $70K. But the base price is much less than that. I got the Maliblue (or whatever it's called). I love this color, I am very biased towards blue, but I didn't have a choice because I picked from a small inventory. I might have picked a different color if all options were available. Either way, they all look beautiful and I am happy with what I have.

Bill/Mike, nice review! A car that can shoot down the highway like a jet flying off of an aircraft carrier, what an amazing feeling. The Ocean has very good acceleration along with some of the best handling characteristics found in any car. Easy to learn and use is the 17.1” rotating user interface with a robust software package. The Fisker Ocean is a strong competitor in the growing EV market.

Cheers 🥂

[@EVRider]

Thanks! It's definitely cool to see how many Fisker Oceans are already on the road. Here in Jacksonville I've already seen three, including Mike's. I'm looking forward to seeing how Fisker's software progresses over time and how soon they can get the PEAR into production.

[@SilvanoWilliams]

Awesome video! Thank you for putting it together! I absolutely love my FOO!

[@EVRider]

Thanks and I'm glad to hear you're having a good experience with your Ocean One.

[@pama4681]

Mike the coolest guy ever

[@JohnDavis-xc4in]

I am looking at the Fisker Ocean one. Would like to get more information on it with regard to service in Canada as well as purchasing it in Canada. They are very great looking vehicles. I have a KIA EV 6 been happy with it so far.

[@EVRider]

I love the EV6! I had the opportunity to review the GT. Fantastic overall vehicle. Here's the review: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKSnpKVtl92Ko5Y In regards to your Fisker research you might also want to check out Mike's KZbin channel: youtube.com/@FiskerOceanSpecialist

[@phillipliesemer8629]

Great video BUT that was not boost mode you experienced. The vehicle was already moving when you floored it. Boost only activates if flooring it from a standstill. What you experienced was regular Hyper mode acceleration.

[@krafter324]

It took me a bit to realize this, but when it is ready "Boost Mode" pops up as ready on the scren.

[@EVRider]

You're right. Boost mode was displayed so we thought at the time we had properly executed it but MIke has sinced confirmed, as you said, that it only truly engages from a full stop, and only counts as a Boost use from a full stop.

[@mrallelectriccarlunacy]

they're a dime a dozen around town nowadays, but let me know if you could make use of an MYP for a comparison drive with Mach-E and Ocean. maybe for a video about "budget performance". also I put the acopower fridge in the trunk if you want to check that out. I'm over in Lakewood.

[@mrallelectriccarlunacy]

'22 that has the ultrasonic sensors but none of the creeks and rattles (that I've noticed) folks talk about with '20s and '21s

[@warnagunarathna5344]

Awesome video

[@EVRider]

Thanks!

[@simvikmat4062]

Fisker any day

[@VanBurenOfficial]

WANT

[@chucklee9291]

I put down non refundable $250, but decided to forgo Ocean. It doesn’t stand out among its competitors, especially with Tesla model Y undercutting price by $15k, plus impossible to get any service, lack of mature software etc. Looking at the recent sales number, Fisker will likely go bankrupt.

[@TheEVGuy-rx9ju]

Don't talk alot of pish ! A telsa give me a break the car that parts fall off. Clearly your a follower and not a leader if you bought a Tesla the same car as your entire street has eh brilliant. It's way better looking than any Tesla better built and can turn heads unlike Tesla. Tesla is like an arsehole EVERYBODY has one. Yeah they said that about Tesla also. You were clearly price driven not quality driven that plain to see

[@EVRider]

Based on what I'm hearing from the owner of the Fisker One in this video, he's had no complaints about service. While the Model Y is an exellent car, it should be cheaper than the Fisker Ocean One since it doesn't have things like an opening sunroof, guage cluster or solar panels.

[@tribalypredisposed]

This "SUV" has zero footage on a dirt road and only one video on a curvy road, going 25 MPH. No one knows the actual crash rating, we just have Henrik Fisker claiming a year and a half ago it would get five stars, and no crash video. They will never have a fully functional ADAS. Fisker will go bankrupt and these cars will not be drivable after that. But yay, another review showing the Ocean driving on broad straight roads.

[@EVRider]

Sure, the Ocean One has AWD that will be helpful with acceleration and traction in snow, along with getting to things like state park campsites but if you're looking for a true off-road vehicle a lux-trim limited edition probably isn't it. With that said, Autotrader has a video that shows Fisker's Force E option package, which sounds more like what you're interested in: www.fiskerinc.com/forcee

[@tribalypredisposed]

@@EVRider The Force-e is CGI, it will never be available. Every other SUV immediately shows us footage of the car being used as an SUV out on dirt roads in forest or desert. Zero such footage for the Fisker Ocean. The classic car ad has the car zooming along a twisty mountain road, zero footage of the Ocean. Numerous reviews of other cars take them to a track to try out the handling, zero for the Ocean. We have crash test footage or official crash ratings for basically every other car sold in the Western World, not for the Ocean. I am seeing a pattern here and I don’t think it reflects positive abilities of the Ocean.

[@EVRider]

@@tribalypredisposed Sounds like you've ruled out Fisker. Best of luck with whatever you decide to purchase.

[@tuomasholo]

It appears Fisker stock has been delisted today after additional funding had failed to materialize. All manufacturing has ceased and no further orders are allowed. Bankruptcy is next and I feel bad for current owners as their warranties will not be honored. Existing stock will likely be sold at a significant discount.

[@EVRider]

The future does indeed look dire for Fisker. For the sake of current owners I hope some sort of unexpected last minute angel investment or acquisition occurs. For prospective buyers, even at announced firesale prices of just under $25k - in my opinion - the Ocean is currently a bad gamble since if the company shuts down over-the-air updates will cease and parts/service will likely be hard to find.
