It was to be expected, after a very significant price drop in the United States, the Fisker Ocean saw its price drop in Europe as well. On the brand’s French website, it appears with a discount of €21,000 all the same, which would bring its price down to only €22,990 in the Sport version. That’s less than a Peugeot e-208, for example, for an SUV rivaling the Tesla Model Y!
The offer is valid on models in stock (production is on hold anyway), in Sport, Ultra or Extreme finish. However, only high-end Extreme models are currently listed on the French market, starting at €43,790 once the discount is applied.
A tempting, but risky bet
As a reminder, Fisker is in very bad shape and is trying to replenish its coffers by selling off its Ocean electric SUV. The future of the brand is therefore very uncertain and as attractive as this offer is, it presents a significant risk. It’s not us who say this, but Fisker in a disclaimer. “Due to the current economic situation of the manufacturer Fisker Group Inc. and the Fisker sales companies in Europe, there is a risk of limitation of support and services for vehicles”warns the manufacturer. “Buyers should expect a permanent loss of the possibility of asserting claims for material defects and warranty rights. By concluding a vehicle purchase contract after April 3, 2024, the buyer of a Fisker Ocean declares that it has been informed accordingly and nevertheless wishes to purchase a Fisker Ocean in view of the risk described.”
If the Ocean nevertheless has many arguments to put forward, especially at these prices, it is therefore difficult to recommend it. In the event that its manufacturer were to disappear, customers would find themselves abandoned with a vehicle that had become difficult to maintain and which still has some software glitches that deserve to be corrected, as YouTuber Marques Brownlee showed after giving a review. second chance to the model. We also imagine that the price of the Ocean on the second-hand market could fall even lower.
