As for the vehicles themselves, the $68,999 Ocean One is based on the Ocean Extreme and features a dual-motor all-wheel drive system that produces up to 564 hp (421 kW / 572 PS) and 544 lb-ft (737 Nm) of torque in boost mode. This enables the crossover to accelerate from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in four seconds, before hitting a top speed of 127 mph (205 km/h).
Power is provided by a 113 kWh battery pack, which gives the crossover an EPA range of 360 miles (579 km) when riding on the standard 20-inch wheels. The launch edition also comes equipped with heated front and rear seats, a digital rearview mirror, a SolarSky roof, and a 17.1-inch infotainment system.
CEO Henrik Fisker said, “We have been waiting for this moment ever since we started the development of the Fisker Ocean in October 2020.” He acknowledged there were bumps in the road but stated, “We’re grateful our customers have been patient with us as we dealt with a longer-than-expected certification period earlier this year, and we’re happy their patience is now starting to be rewarded.”
