Not too long ago, car manufacturers were looking to launch the most affordable electric cars possible but in the last 12 months or so, much of the focus from many brands has been the growing world of electric pickup trucks. Fisker is just the latest.
It’s only been a little while since the all-electric Fisker Ocean SUV was presented to the world and the company headed up by Henrik Fisker is thinking about its next creation. Taking to Twitter recently, Henrik Fisker shared an image previewing the rear of a Fisker pickup dubbed the Alaska but before long, the tweet was deleted. Thankfully, Car and Driver got a screenshot of the tweet before it was deleted.

The pickup depicted in the teaser image has an aggressive and sharp design with a large third brake light on the roof, thin taillights, and a set of massively-wide off-road wheels and tires. There is also a large badge on the tailgate reading ‘Alaska’. Shortly after Henrik Fisker published the tweet, he replied “Sorry mistake: will delete.”
In a statement issued to Car and Driver, a Fisker spokesperson said the tweet was made unintentionally.
“We can’t confirm the model or name of a vehicle that may have been seen in the tweet,” the spokesperson said, “We can, however, confirm that Fisker Inc. is indeed working on a modular electric vehicle platform that may underpin several different affordable EV models in the future.”
The electric pickup space is booming with vehicles like the Rivian R1T, Tesla Cybertruck, Bollinger B2, Nikola Badger, Lordstown Endurance, electric Ford F-150, and the new Hummer EV Pickup all heading towards production.
