Fisker today started production of the Ocean electric SUV on schedule at its Magna contract plant in Graz. So far, more than 63,000 reservations have been registered for the recently produced Fisker Ocean
“It’s an emotional day as we start production of the world’s most sustainable vehicle in record time – on time – in the carbon-neutral factory in Graz,” Fisker Chairman and CEO Henrik Fisker said. “We’ve challenged the old model of longer development timelines, reflecting our team’s agility and dedication to creating emotionally desirable vehicles with the newest, most unique experiences in our price range. We have the highest quality at launch, aligned with our commitment to leading the industry in sustainability. More than 63,000 customers worldwide share our enthusiasm. It’s a day for our team and fans to celebrate!”
Fisker did not specify how many vehicles it would build this year in its announcement at the start of production. However, the published plans for the coming year are surprisingly detailed. For the first quarter of 2023 only 300 units are planned, for the second quarter it is already over 8,000, for the third more than 15,000 and in the fourth quarter of this year it will close with a total production volume of 42,400 Fisker Ocean – ie. over 19,000 units in Q4 alone.
As of May 2022 it is still saying that by 2023, the first full production year, 50,000 Oceans will be built at Magna – now 42,400 vehicles are stated. From 2024 onwards, according to information from May, production will triple to 150,000 Ocean per year. As announced in August, US production of Ocean is also being considered.
Fisker promises eco-friendly manufacturing for the Ocean electric SUV with more than 50 kilograms of recyclable, biodegradable and environmentally conscious materials.
