Magna builds the car in a ‘carbon net zero plant’, while the thinking that’s gone into every element of design and production to ensure all aspects of the car – and every one of the company’s suppliers – is as sustainable as possible is impressive. Henrik Fisker proudly told us that he wants the Ocean to be “the world’s most sustainable car,” producing impressive and believable stats to back that up. And it seems to have paid off – the new Fisker Ocean is an impressive first effort. Let’s not dwell on Fisker Automotive’s ill-fated Fisker Karma, other than to say it’s given Herik’s latest company, Fisker Inc., the benefit of hindsight. In fact, you might not call it a start-up at all given this is boss Henrik Fisker’s second attempt at a car company. Of the numerous start-ups aiming for your attention (and cash) in the electric vehicle space, Fisker is different. We suspect that the Sport model, with its lower price and fatter tyres, could become a real favourite and maybe even grab itself an extra half star. That probably won’t matter to most owners who’ll love the long range, style, space, quality and tech. Some real thought and care has gone into its design and manufacture to make it one of the cleverest and most sustainable cars on the road. It’ll be an easy vehicle to own, if not the most rewarding to drive, with the usual caveat of waiting to see how the firm ride translates onto UK roads. The Fisker Ocean is not just another all-electric SUV.
