In March, Fisker began production of the Ocean prototype and continues to provide finishing touches prior to the start of production and prior to customer delivery.
The Ocean electric SUV comes in several trim levels. The entry-level Sport model uses a lithium-ion phosphate battery from CATL giving it a range of 273 miles (440 km) and driving an electric motor with 275 hp. This variant can accelerate from 0-60 mph (96 km/h) in 6.9 seconds.
The variant positioned above the Fisker Ocean Sport is the Ultra with a two-motor all-wheel drive that produces 540 hp. This variant uses a Hyper Range nickel manganese cobalt battery that can give it a range of 379 miles (610 km), and accelerates from 0-62 mph (100 km/h) in 4.2 seconds.
Meanwhile the Extreme and Launch Edition variants both use an upgraded dual-motor all-wheel drive that produces 550 hp. Both variants can accelerate from 0-62 mph in 3.9 seconds, and promise a range of up to 391 miles (630 km).
The Ocean attraction starts at just $37,499 in the United States, and that’s before the applicable $7,500 federal EV tax credit.
