10 Things I think the Fisker Ocean needs

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

A 100% subjective video about 10 things I think the car needs. What do you think it needs? I could name probably 1000, but I have to draw the line when I start asking for torpedos and wings.

    You are the very early adopter, you will deal with cars problems ,we'll wait and watch your issues, and hope when ours come in next 12 months we won't have these issues.

    Love my Fisker Ocean. It is a great drive!!! But... Agree with this video! And, make the cargo space just 1 inch wider to accommodate golf clubs. Add closed storage space near the driver for things like sunglasses. (The thing under the seat is cheap and difficult to use while driving.) Add HOMELINK!!! I can't believe I have my garage door opener back in my car. Make the sun visor an inch or two wider and deeper so that it is more effective. Fix the seat sensor so that the car will shift into gear. Lov ethe idea of an OFF button. Hill hold is essential and a major safety issue. Adding Car Play would solve many interface problems. Add a meter so I know how much charge I get from the solar roof. (Should I park in the sun for the power or in the shade to keep the car cooler?) Add the ability to cool the car remotely from the App. Please fix the front camera and radar bug. I could go on, but again, I love my Fisker and am thrilled to be an early adopter. These issues are par for the course and make for some fun dinner conversations.

    Just got my horizon grey FOO last week in the SF Bay Area. Love it so far! Some of the same issues with 1.06 software, but a lot of issues are being addressed in 1.07. I think next improvements would be user profile settings for drive/seat/mirrors are needed and I've heard are in the works. The One owner's like us know that things aren't going to be perfect right off the bat and glad you have that same perspective. It will definitely get better over time. Just going to enjoy the car as it right now, even with the quirks. Great video and thanks!

    I prefer FWD (lifetime of north-country driving), but with 2 motors it ought to be pretty straight-forward to allow drivers to adjust the bias. ... Also agree with the paper manual. As good as electronic manuals are for searching, paper manuals are better for skimming. Plus, I currently spend much on my day driving in dead-zones or parked in the cell-tower shadow of a big hill.

    Fisker set up a test drive event near me and I drove an Ocean One yesterday. I thought it was an ok vehicle. I should say that I'm not one to mash on the pedal or tear around corners or go through twisty canyon runs so when I say "an ok vehicle" I mean it will do just fine for my needs. I wasn't super impressed with how it felt "unfinished", though, as your video points out. I was told there are OTA updates that would fix these. Here are some other things I noticed were "missing" as I had been comparing and considering both the Model Y and an Ocean: 1) single pedal driving (future OTA udpate?). I think this pairs to your hill assist comment in the video; 2) nav was "meh" for me. I like the Model Y's nav better, but I was also told that Apple CarPlay was forthcoming as an OTA update which I would much prefer to either Model Y or Fisker because of Google Maps; 3) an autopilot-like system wasn't yet available (lane centering, adaptive cruise). Again, an OTA update?; and 4) in the Model Y, the sensors will detect basically all the traffic/pedestrians/traffic cones/traffic lights around you in near real time. In the Ocean, none of that happened except for the traffic light (but there's only one icon versus all traffic lights nearby in the Model Y's display). Yes, this is a minor thing, but it just makes it feel less polished than the Model Y.

    I've been waiting for any signs of life from Ford's software team to do a dash cam or sentry mode OTA, but they and so may other OEMs suck at reaching feature parity with a Tesla. I can't even call it innovative now as it's been available for 5 years now. Hope Fisker can show better progress on this front. Please keep up these honest takes, it's way more helpful to prospective shoppers than most reviews.

    All on point, thanks ! At this point I would say 10x(-$1000) is what is needed most and can be easily done.

    interesting that 9 out of 10 seem to be stuff that software could handle, so hopefully these could all be implemented. The lack of a physical manual probably just goes along with the sustainability angle. A few trees saved I suppose. I'm hoping you are relaying all of these issues back to Fisker or I hope they are seeing your videos because this is good info.

    Hallo, ich wollte mir einen Fisker anschauen, Probefahren und evtl. bestellen: Weder in den Showrooms in M und D gibt es einen Kontaktmöglichkeit (keine E-mail und/oder Telefonnummer angegeben). Geht wohl nur über USA. Aber von da kommt keine Antwort, keine Reaktion (jetzt habe ich mind. 8 mal angefragt über die Fisker-Webseite). Darf man denn so einen Wagen kaufen? Wenn da mal am Auto "was dran" ist, und man bekommt keinen Ansprechpartner? Schade eigentlich. So darf ich doch keinen Fisker kaufen? Oder weiß jemand etwas anderes? Lasst es mich hören.

    How has it been taking care of and cleaning the matte finish? Will you have snow and salt where you are? I'm in the Chicago area so trying to decide in BSB or Mariana. Really want BSB.

    Honestly it's kind of a pain. I'll make a quick wash video and a detailed cleaning video. But you do have to keep it washed with non wax soap and make an entire system for at home cleaning. I bought a foamgun on Amazon and it's been a huge help though.

    So I found out that if you select the passenger mirror before you back up, it will auto tilt for you. And same for if you select the driver mirror. Note: you have to select the mirror BEFORE you throw it in Reverse.

    Rwd bias.. lacking this is really a turn off. Even Volkswagen meb platform is using rwd or rwd bias 4wd drive.. it is so frustrating when front wheels are slipping when it just little slippery conditions. This should be fixed asap.
