Overview
On October 15, 2020, Fisker announced it would be outsourcing vehicle production of the Ocean to Magna Steyr, an Austrian-based manufacturer that specializes in contract manufacturing, in order to reduce the complexities and costs related to the building and operating its own factory.[4][5] Fisker plans on utilizing Magna's electric vehicle platform, and will be giving Magna a stake of up to 6% of Fisker equity.[5] In June 2021, Fisker finalized its manufacturing deal with Magna Steyr, with production on the Fisker Ocean to begin in November 2022 at Magna's facility in Graz, Austria.[6]
In October 2020, Viggo, a newly-founded Danish ride-hailing service, ordered 300 Fisker Oceans, to be delivered in late 2022.[7] In March 2021, Fisker announced an agreement with Crédit Agricole Consumer Finance (of Crédit Agricole Group) on the potential supply of Fisker Ocean SUVs to the European banking group.[8] In May 2021, Fisker announced an agreement with UK electric car subscription service Onto to supply the company with up to 700 Fisker Ocean SUVs in 2023.[9] In November 2021, Fisker and Contemporary Amperex Technology (CATL) announced a deal for CATL to supply battery packs for the Fisker Ocean SUV. CATL will provide two different battery packs for the vehicle. The primary high-capacity pack uses a lithium nickel manganese cobalt cell chemistry, and the second pack uses CATL's cells based on lithium-ion phosphate chemistry.[10][11] In February 2022, the Fisker Ocean made its European market debut at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.[12] As of February 2022, the company announced that it has over 30,000 reservations for the Fisker Ocean SUV[13] and over 55,000 by August 2022. Till the end of 2022, the Ocean had 63,000 preorders.[14]
