The car is made in Austria if what I heard on the electric Viking is accurate.
The ceo is a known crook. The car has a lot of issues as is, and definitely had some previously used technology but this is a very risky move.
If you buy it and get a commercial loan and register the car commercially as a dba or corp you can get a write off every year for 5 years valued at 60k most likely.
I think the car had a major flaw that's creating this discount and I wouldn't want to find out 40k later.
Hell you can always end up getting in a mysterious accident I guess, if all else fails
Can you please give us more information about that?
Most EV manufacturers are going under, even if some survive what are the chances it will be Fisker??? That's like a 10% chance... only 2 or 3 at most will survive and one of those slots already taken by Tesla. EV only manufacturers like Fisker are most at risk.
EV fanboys are in denial but you can be sure they will not buy any of these discounted paperweights though they will encourage others to buy them.
Soon to be bankrupt. They just got delisted from the exchange.
To be clear, you file for bankruptcy protection. That is, a legal enabled window to reorganize, negotiate with creditors, etc. This is not a 100% guarantee of becoming insolvent (i.e., going out of business).
Yes, the delisting is related. Where it comes into play is not is makes it that much more difficult for the company to raise the funds it needs to remain viable. But again, delisting !== out of business. Delisting means you don't meet the financial criteria for that exchange.
These are symptoms of an illness. They are not necessarily death sentences.
Don't park inside your garage. I just heard yesterday that a Volvo EV SUV exploded in a garage. Unproven technology and lacking of mass production to learn the glitches.
Not sure why it would, its a competitor going out of business which is a big reason for Tesla cut throat prices, as once these cars are all gone its over. One less competitor now in there way so it may cause a price uptick.
That's exactly my first thought, that gaddam craftsman mower I bought off slickdeals!
I had that mower as well. Lucky for me Craftsman honored the warranty and sent me a replacement. That was great.
What's unfortunate is I have a mower that would be fine if only I could get a battery for it. I'm all but left with no choice but to put it on the curb (and into a landfill). So much for going green. What a shame.
A guy I know bought one full price and just got his delivered about a month ago. He's extremely upset and isn't sure what he's going to do. He owes a lot more on the car than it's now worth and he was only planning on keeping the car for a few years. He has encountered a lot of software bugs on the vehicle already, and that was something he was expecting but he was counting on Fisker to gradually improve the software, though that is likely to be vastly different given the business circumstances.
It's like buying an IPO. A few times, you'd get lucky. Most of the time, you lose your shirt. It's the risk you take to be "first".
Just because something that was overpriced as hell received a huge price decrease doesn't make it a good deal. This car doesn't even have adjustable lumbar support. How does a $60k car not have that? So yea you can get a "60k" car for under $40k but it's still not as good as a model Y and it may lose support if they go out of business

There's too much EV and AI crap lately
Need to cull the herd
