After Fisker signed its final manufacturing agreement with Magna, it is revealing more and more details about the Ocean. The company’s electric SUV will start production on November 17, 2022, it will present its production version at the 2021 Los Angeles Auto Show and will reveal the car specifications there, more specifically in November 2021. The company’s founder could not wait that much and announced on Twitter more details about the vehicle.
According to Henrik Fisker, the Ocean will have a derivative called Extreme with one motor per axle. Apart from being an AWD vehicle, it will also offer more than 400 kW – or 536 hp.

That’s obviously not the entry-level Ocean, which will cost $37,499 in the U.S. without government incentives – yet to be redefined by the Joe Joe Biden administration – and less than €32,000 in Germany, but only after including taxes and subsidies.

Fisker said the Ocean will be made with recyclable materials and will have a focus on sustainability. Is it not clear if the vehicle will keep the dimensions Fisker revealed at the CES 2020. According to the company, it would be 4.64 meters (182.7 inches) long, 1,93 m (76 in) wide, and 1,62 m (63.6 in) tall.

The company also disclosed that the SUV would be able to carry 566 liters (20 cubic feet) of cargo in the trunk. Removing the parcel shelf helps the driver accommodate up to 708 liters (25 cubic feet) there, while folding the rear seats allows the Ocean to carry 1,274 liters (45 cubic feet) of whatever the owner wants. We have the impression that those measurements will change a bit when the final car is revealed.

At the CES 2020, Fisker also said that all Ocean derivatives would be AWD apart from the entry-level. They would present more than 225 kW (more than 300 hp), and the ultra-high-performance version would go from 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in less than 3 seconds. Would that Ocean be the Extreme? We’ll have to wait for the Los Angeles Auto Show to confirm – or for Henrik Fisker’s following tweets.
