Is the Fisker Ocean a SCAM?

Honestly buying random items from Teemu seems like a much safer deal now.

There’s a fisker dealer near San Diego that seems quite literally abandoned. I visited at noon on a Saturday, and the entire lot was covered in dust. The only person on the property was a security guard who could tell me that nobody was there 😭

Insane how a company that was hyped up to be the next big thing back in 2012 failed, and was given over a decade to try again, the. just failed again.

Damn 14 minutes of blue balls

Im a good friend of someone in upper management there. The price slash, wasn't to make money so that they can survive. Its ONLY to get rid of the units they have built, or parts. They don't want to be stuck with anything.

As far as the buying and shipping process, its easy to understand how overwhelming it would be for the base employees after a 50% cut in price. The CEOs dont care about a few weeks of rush for them.

A ton of early Fisker employees bought Ocean Ones…. Imagine giving the company you work for $70k, then the vehicle depreciates to half its value, then they lay you off…..

Just bought a Fisker Ocean at a fire sale. Now waiting for the fire department to show up

Fiskers don't make noise when they start up, just so you know

The channel fans in the Fisker dealership: omg Austin what are you doing here I love your channel!!!
Austin: damn it you just sold me out

Fisker cooking some books

I think Dankpods would be getting the 1 grit out. This is the ultimate Electric Nugget

This is yet another reason why I refuse to buy in to anything as an early adopter or in early access...

Thank you for taking the time to inform viewers of shady practices.

I'm sure there's a Fisker insider somewhere that would be willing to spill the beans.

I was excited to hear about a $25,000 small electric SUV, but when I realized that the Ultra and the Extreme were so closely priced after the discounts, I knew they didn't have any of the Sports. Why would you price the Sport at $10,000 under the mid-tier? The only explanation is for marketing. They knew there were no Sport models available, so they priced it at a point that seemed low enough for consumers who are unsure of electric cars still, but high enough that it didn't sound like a complete, outright lie.

How ironic that a CAR company struggled selling a CAR. Like what are they doing?

There is a dealer I visit every so often because they sell a lot of high end cars, but they also get these completely random cars sometimes. They had both the Cybertruck and a Fisker Ocean at the same time. To be honest, the Fisker in person does look pretty clean. But based off of all the reviews and drama, it seems that’s probably the only redeemable thing. I did think the video of one of the higher ups trying to contact Marques was pretty funny.

I had a chance to look at one of these extreme models in person and I’m honestly bummed that the company failed. The shape is cool like a Range Rover, faster than cars usually that size it being electric, and all the tech in there seemed cool even though I’m a tactile button guy

Hopefully if Fisker will do the right thing and open source the car software so people in the community can attempt to fix it. But I doubt that they will and a ton of people will be stuck with perfectly good cars with broken software that will never be fixed. Most of which will end up in a landfill once the owners get tired of dealing with all of the software issues. When a company goes bankrupt it should be required by law that the source code for the software used in that product to be open sourced so that the community can continue support if they want.
