“We have been waiting for this moment ever since we started the development of the Fisker Ocean in October 2020,” Chairman and CEO Henrik Fisker said. “As a California-based company, we are thrilled that our first US customers are finally getting behind the wheel of the Fisker Ocean and will experience its innovative features, class-leading 360-mile range, and highest levels of sustainability. We’re grateful our customers have been patient with us as we dealt with a longer-than-expected certification period earlier this year, and we’re happy their patience is now starting to be rewarded.”

Fisker will commence deliveries of 22 vehicles at 11:30 a.m. Pacific Time, at a company facility in the Los Angeles area where product specialists can familiarize customers with their Fisker Ocean One launch edition SUVs. This initial group of vehicles was shipped to the US from Austria on an expedited basis. Additional deliveries will continue through the summer.
