American electric car manufacturer Fisker Inc has confirmed the Fisker Ocean electric SUV for India. The company first hinted at such an offering last year and also set up shop in Hyderabad. The EV maker plans to bring 100 units of the Fisker Ocean SUV in a limited Vigyan Edition, whose name has been inspired by the company’s first India outpost. The Fisker Ocean offers up to 707km of range on the WLTP cycle.
Fisker Ocean price, availability in India (expected)
The Fisker Ocean electric SUV is a premium offering and the car commands a price tag of €69,950 in Germany. The California-based EV company claims to align its prices in India with the European counterparts which could translate to about Rs 64.5 lakh. However, with taxes and logistics, this price could shoot well above Rs 1 crore very easily.
The Fisker Ocean SUV is expected to receive homologation from Indian authorities by September and the EV is expected to be delivered in Q4 2023. The Fisker Ocean will compete with the BMW iX, Audi e-tron and Jaguar i-Pace luxury electric SUVs in India.
