HERE’S WHAT IT’S LIKE OWNING A FISKER! PURCHASE, DELIVERY, & OWNERSHIP EXPERIENCE

EV Channels Review

This episode features an in-depth look at the ownership experience of the Fisker Ocean One, shared by owner Brian. While Brian praises the vehicle's design, build quality, and driving dynamics, highlighting its unique features and competitive pricing against models like the Tesla Model Y, the review is heavily tempered by significant software and delivery-related issues. Brian details a challenging delivery process, including a missing panel and non-functional vents, and persistent problems with the touchscreen, especially at low states of charge. Charging compatibility issues with popular networks like Electrify America and ChargePoint, along with key fob reliability, are also noted. Fisker's communication and transparency are questioned, with the owner suggesting early adopters are essentially beta testers. Despite these considerable drawbacks, Brian remains cautiously optimistic about Fisker's potential, particularly if software and service execution improve, but strongly advises potential buyers to proceed with extreme caution, emphasizing it's not a vehicle for first-time EV owners or those seeking a seamless experience.
