Totally agree George. For £35k you will get the Sport model with 273 miles of range. Still good value and it’s not slow either! Ed

Next-gen BMW EVs to get new battery tech for 620-mile range. Gen6 batteries will arrive in 2025 with more efficient cylindrical cells, improving range and charging rates. Right now I'm satisfied with a lower range i4 eDrive40, I currently have. What comes out in 2025, we will wait and see. If Ocean has similar range and the build quality is as good as a BMW then I will definitely consider it :)

Fisker is far better lookin cheaper with a great range. BMW is like an arsehole everybody has one. Trust me never buy a EV from a big brand they are miles behind stand EV companies

Best SUV.

Surprised to see this very upbeat evaluation. What happened to your dealbreaker view because of Apple Play? I believe we still have not seen a truly independent evaluation of this car and I remain skeptical. I made the decision to lose $5000 rather than wait for the delivery of my Ocean One and to this day nobody from Fisker has contacted me to find out why. I do hope your renewed optimism is rewarded when you get your vehicle.

I prefer to look forward than back so I’ll also reserve judgment until I get my hands on ours. If it suits we’ll keep it, if not we won’t. Either way I’ll be open and honest. My ‘dealbreaker’ video was an honest reaction to the shambles that was their Fully Charged Live display. Filmed the next day. I’m still a skeptic but will go ahead with the purchase as I still believe that we could move it on easily. Ed

a more convincing video would be "5 reasons why should not consider buying a fisher ocean".

Hi. It’s the Yin and Yang. Last video was my reaction at the piss poor presentation and the omission of one vital (in my opinion) feature. It was also filmed just after the event. I can get quite passionate sometimes which was why I had doubts about publishing it in the first place. I’m still upset but would prefer to dwell on the positives in life. That way you can move on from the upsets. Ed

@@Back_Road_Hero I too wasn't happy at the Farnborough event either, but life goes on. As an Ocean one reservation holder, I cant wait to get delivery of the car. At the price point of the F1 no other vehicle will get close to what this car offers. At the event in Farnborough I was told that there are less than 200 of the F1 coming to the UK, if that's the case we must be the lucky few Ed.

Five reasons 1. Iffy software. No comprehensive OTA. 2. Fisker have an excellent chance of going bankrupt again. Limited support initially, no support in a few years. 3. Heavy and inefficient (miles per kWh) 4. Tepid acceleration for such a powerful motor. 5. No frunk strongly suggests further design inefficiencies.

I was rightfully upset in Fisker on the last one but prefer to move on and dwell on the positives in life not the negatives. I was in two minds whether to publish the last one but I wanted to be honest. Ed

But here is the biggest problem. It only has a five dollar or six dollar stock price I cannot in good conscience purchase a vehicle with a five or six dollar share price. If it had $100 share price, then it would be worth my while to make the purchase because I know I would be purchasing something solid. When you see a share price of five dollars a share that scares the living shit out of you because you don’t know what you’re getting because the theory behind it is if it was such a great car what is it doing at five dollars a share so that’s my reason for not purchasing it if it was $100 a share I would make the purchase five dollars tells me it’s going to break down every single day seven days a week so that’s the scary part for me.

A lower denominated share price doesn't necessarily mean a company's total worth is less. For argument sake, a trillion shares of $1 each makes a company worth $1 trillion. 10 million shares at $100 per share = ? Same, I guess :)

@@harmony3138 yes, of course I understand share price in outstanding shares but as I look, apparently this company has less than 300 million outstanding shares, but yet it trades between five and six dollars a share. There is absolutely no argument that could be made whatsoever that this isn’t a garbage company, it has a market cap of less than $2 billion. I mean seriously my 1 acre farm has a bigger market cap then $2 billion and this is supposed to be a high tech electric car share price is absolutely everything when you look at market cap I’ll consider buying an ocean when I see the market cap at least at a minimum of 15 to 20 billion and then at that point I’ll just look. but when you’re trading under 2 billion market cap come on guys a local deli Mart treats at a higher market cap

They’re delivering at the moment and ramping uk production as we speak. 36000 expected this year. Not all 65000 reservations will be turned into firm orders since only £250 ($250/€250) reserves one. To be on such a demand is a very good sign. Just be patient or maybe you’ll get one on the open market. Ed
