Fisker debuts an electric luxury SUV for $37,500 at CES

At the 2020 Consumer Electronics Show, acclaimed American-Danish automotive designer Henrik Fisker, CEO of the eponymous startup Fisker Inc., has unveiled the hotly anticipated Fisker Ocean. This all-electric luxury SUV comes with a range close to 300 miles and a competitive starting price of $37,500. Described by Fisker as “the world’s most sustainable vehicle,” the Ocean will be powered by an approximately 80 kWh lithium-ion battery pack and come equipped with a full-length solar roof capable of providing “1,000 free, clean miles per year”; recycled carpeting made from abandoned fishing net waste; vegan interiors and “eco-suede” materials.

The unveiling of the Fisker Ocean comes shortly after the automotive company announced its partnership with Electrify America, the largest open DC fast charging network for electric vehicles in the United States that promises more than 200 miles of range in just 30 minutes of charging. The brand of batteries for the Fisker Ocean has not yet been disclosed.

“We have secured a global supply chain and manufacturing capacity that will result in projected production of more than 1 million vehicles between 2022 and 2027,” said Fisker, whose track record for designing luxury cars includes the BMW Z8, Aston Martin DB9 and Mustang Rocket. “We look forward to sharing even more details at the Geneva Motor Show 2020 — including our fully-engineered platform and more technical specifications.”

Reservations can be placed online for $250. Vehicles and option packages will be made available to customers for viewing at select Fisker experience centers this year. Production of the Fisker Ocean is slated to begin next year with full series production to begin in 2022.
