Fisker Ocean Reveal

My big takeaway is that MotorTrend will be hiring video editors soon. 22 minutes for 22 seconds worth of content considering today's average attention span is just criminal.

Considering how much the Model Y price has shot up, it seems like the Ultra trim could be a really good option for a LOT of people!

How can you same something "Sport" and make it your slowest vehicle?

Honda has done that for years. “Sport” is a common marketing term for the cheap/basic option.

Yep, the mid-level Ultra trim is hitting a pricing sweet spot. Should still come in under $50K for most people after tax incentives and sales tax/fees. Could be close to $40K in some states that still have incentives to offer.

It will be interesting to see how they handle sales and delivery. Someone on the previous page was trying to be funny and mentioned Costco. But what if an automaker like this did use Costco or Sam’s Club as their sales outlet? That would be an epic move and I don’t think they could build enough cars. Here in the US/Canada, Costco locations would have to get dealership licenses, but they would probably be onboard with something like that.

How many people would need a 24 pack of Fisker Oceans?

The Vehicle actually looks much better in this preview from Edmunds:

Like the Bronco sport vs the 'real' Bronco (although they are completely different vehicles from each other).

I always love seeing a first look or review of a car where the commenter goes on and on about how sexy the "wide stance" is and then bemoans the lack of shoulder room on the interior... In the case of a car design like the Ocean (and Audi Q3, etc.), they're entirely related. You get the appearance of a wider stance by reducing the width of the vehicle above the wheels.

No frunk.

Boo.

The cheap version is Not out for over two years according to Edmunds so a long wait. As for the most expensive version, it is slightly cheaper than a R1S Explore but slower, smaller, not as well designed interior and not as capable off road. Poor value.
