Yes does look good but after Fisher and build issues on other cars that look good I’m feeling a bit jaded and suspicious it’ll be interesting if or when it comes to the UK. It is a very nice looking car
That’s completely understandable. Fisker had the potential to roll out a great car but didn’t have the technical and business acumen to make it work. Given the prices of the Ocean, they had to have a viable model.
There’s a lot of newish companies, mostly Asian, with models, prototypes, concepts which all look pretty good at a distance. The Chinese companies learned one hell of a lot by insisting the foriegn companies had a Chinese partner to sell their cars in China. That meant companies like SAIC (MG and others) partnered with the VW Audi Group to build their cars, they learned how to build to the exacting standards of Audi and Porsche without needing R&D or training costs. Some of the output is of that standard and priced competitively with those models, some were built to compete with VW or Skoda or SEAT and could be priced accordingly. Now they’re pushing cars back this way that could be massively competitive and could expand the offering to all customers in Europe except that protectionism will kick in and process or profits will be pushed in a negative direction in the hope that the legacy manufacturers don’t fail as they will face massive conversion costs to withdraw their fossil fueled options and roll out future technologies, whether that’s a continuation of BEVs with different batteries or Hydrogen or other fueled vehicles.
I'm Autistic, if I say something you find offensive, please let me know, I can guarantee it was unintentional.
I'll try to give my honest opinion but am always open to learning.
