Fisker, the California-based startup behind the Ocean all-electric SUV, has more models in the pipeline and it’s looking at legacy automakers to help build them, according to Reuters. As per the news agency, who spoke with founder and CEO Henrik Fisker, the American marque needs some heavyweight partners to scale production of its upcoming EVs – the Ocean-based Alaska pickup and the smaller Pear crossover, both of which are slated to roll off the assembly line in 2025.
Fisker said in August that the deal with Foxconn had not been finalized, adding that he was confident it would come together in the coming months. He also said that the legal battle between Lordstown Motors and Foxconn – which was the main investor behind the maker of the Endurance pickup – did not derail Fisker’s deal with the Taiwanese contract manufacturer. The Ocean SUV is also built under contract.
