©2021 Fisker Inc.Fisker Inc., a Los Angeles-based electric vehicle startup led by designer Henrik Fisker, says it has initial orders for a high-end version of the battery-powered Ocean SUV that goes into production in November worth more than $300 million. Although the company promotes a relatively affordable version of Ocean, priced from $37,499 on its website, the first 5,000 orders are for the top-end Fisker Ocean One that will cost about $70,000 each, Henrik Fisker tells Forbes. Fisker Inc. is Henrik Fisker’s second attempt to challenge Tesla after his first, Fisker Automotive, failed in 2013, after building only a few thousand units of the $100,000 Karma plug-in hybrid luxury car. Fisker Inc. cofounders Geeta Gupta-Fisker, left, and Henrik Fisker. The company said it had about $851 million on hand, enough to carry it through the start of Ocean production.
