I was excited about the Fisker ocean until I saw this review. And it’s smaller than what I thought it would be.

Aside from a few odd interior design choices, the Fisker software is only a year or two behind Ford's. But fortunately, Ford is big enough to not go out of business before they've been able to iteratively work on the car's software.

they're also on the brink of going out of business again. I can't imagine anyone buying their cars with their track record

There's now another hilarious video of a Fisker rep calling the dealer/owner that loaned that Ocean to Marques to make the review. Word got out quick to management that there was a bad review and Fisker wanted this guy to come update the software on the car ASAP. But he had no idea who MKBHD was, how popular he is, and that he wasn't the owner.

He called Marques a "Mouthpiece blowing up social media", but I think he should speak for himself...



Marques' review was fair, the car has a lot of software bugs that owners have to deal with. He reviews them as owners would receive them. Fisker is going to die soon because their software isn't nearly good enough for a released product. It's a good lesson on how bad software can take down a car company these days.

Yep. I remember folks here talking about signing POs for the $7.5k credit a year or so ago. Yikes.

I like it, on the outside, in someone else’s driveway.
