So this happened yesterday...
I always admired Henrik Fisker designs, starting with the Aston Martin DB9 and Vantage. I actually drove a DB9 once when I still worked in the automotive business. Loved it.
But I was definitely sold on Fisker designs/products when I saw the Fisker Tramonto, especially since I worked for Mercedes-Benz at that time and the Tramonto is based on the SL55AMG and the 600 V12. This car is just beautiful and one day I might to be able to afford one (never say never!).
So, I know I was outspoken on EV's, and for several reasons I'm against full-electric vehicles, I'd rather have a hybrid. But, and please hear me out, this vehicle is scheduled to arrive in 2022. Many things can happen until then. We'll see what the Fisker Solid State Battery Tech holds. Perhaps it's more environmentally friendly (in production and perhaps it's recyclable?), I don't know. We'll see what the service network looks like as well as the technology in general.
But again, I love Fisker designs (even the logo hits emotions; I can feel the warm ocean breeze and hear that waves breaking on the beach) and if I buy an electric car it would be definitely from this company!
Fun fact, the Fisker Ocean is about the same length and width as our 2015 Dodge Dart;
Ocean 182.7" length and 76" width.
Dart 183.9" length and 72" width.
Perfect for a nice grocery getter.
