Sport brings a 275bhp motor on the front axle for a 0-60mph time of 6.6sec; Ultra gets a motor on each axle, boosting output to 540bhp and cutting the sprint time to 3.9sec; and range-topping Extreme brings 550bhp and a 3.6sec 0-60mph time. not confirmed battery capacities and claims it is still testing the model’s exact charging speeds.
Range-topping Extreme models start from £59,900 and include smart traction for improved stability in rough weather, a 360-degree camera, wireless phone charging, lane change assist and a rotating central infotainment system, which can sit either in portrait or landscape. Fisker suggests over-the-air updates, advanced technology and the model’s sustainability qualities will help push the Ocean towards success.
Fisker told Autocar that the batteries and powertrains were"selected this year", only shortly ahead of the Ocean's market launch. The reason, he explained, is that"the car industry has been in the common cycle of taking about four years to develop a car, so when you buy a car, the technology was chosen two-and-a-half or three years ago".
