Production of the Fisker Ocean isn’t scheduled to start until the fourth quarter of 2022 and already, Henrik Fisker is planning the automaker’s next model.
The chief executive believes the next Fisker vehicle will be a global game-changer. It will come to life thanks to a recently-announced partnership with Foxconn that will see the Taiwanese company build the vehicle from the fourth quarter of 2023. Upwards of 250,000 units could be produced annually.
Speaking about the vehicle, Fisker recently told Auto News that the new model will cost “much less” than the Ocean which will start at $37,500 before the $7,500 federal tax credit. He added that despite its affordability, it will still be premium and have a design unlike any other car on sale.

“I can tell you it will be a body style that is not quite a one-box,” he said. “It will have such unique proportions that it will not fit in a segment. It won’t be a sedan, and it won’t be a pickup truck because it has to be a vehicle that will be driven by a lot of people. It will be somewhat smaller than the Ocean. When you see the vehicle, you will immediately realize there is nothing like it. And I think some people might find it a little too futuristic and a little too different in the beginning.”
“But I think that is necessary because we want to create a vehicle that goes across social borders. So we are not trying to make another traditional, slightly better-looking hatchback or something like that.”
The company released early sketches of the vehicle in late February and while they don’t really provide us with much of an insight into its design, they do suggest it will indeed have a unique shape.
