Henrik Fisker and his eponymous company have been setting social media ablaze for weeks . First, with the announcement of their departure from Twitter because it was being acquired by Elon Musk, their arch-rival. Then, they dropped a bombshell by announcing that their next model will be the Ronin , a kind of sedan with a coupé-like feel that, according to some sources, may be a convertible. But not content with that, they announced that more models will follow…
However, it seems their thirst for the spotlight hasn't been quenched. Indeed, taking advantage of their Facebook account, they've dropped another bombshell of media interest. Remember the Fisker PEAR ? Yes, that compact, SUV-like model poised to revolutionize mobility. In fact, its name, "Personal Electric Automotive Revolution," is a declaration of war. Well, with this teaser, they've taken another step toward its commercial launch…
If the plans go well, the production of the Fisker PEAR will start in 2024...
As you can see, the Fisker PEAR teaser reveals part of its design . It's a computer-generated image, but it does show some details. The most striking is the front, with slim headlights and an illuminated central logo that reads PEAR . Below that, there's a bumper with a honeycomb pattern and no air intakes. Also visible in the center is what appears to be the ACC radar …
On the other hand, although it's not entirely clear, it appears to have a very short hood. As for the bodywork, the A-pillar has a curved shape, and below it are side mirrors with integrated digital cameras . Finally, the rear features muscular fenders that protrude from the body. The C-pillar seems very wide, and behind it are what appear to be LED taillights, which seem to be vertically mounted.
But there's more, because we now have a date for the start of production of the Fisker PEAR . If we take a look at the post published on Facebook, we can read…
"We're excited to confirm the production location for our second vehicle: the #FiskerPEAR will be based on Fisker's proprietary platform and assembled at Foxconn's manufacturing facility in Ohio, starting in 2024. We expect to build approximately 250,000 units per year after ramp-up!"
In case you didn't know, Foxconn bought the factory that General Motors previously sold to Lordstown in Ohio (USA). If all goes well, production will begin in 2024, and the brand expects to assemble around 250.000 units annually . And you might be wondering, "At what price?" Well, for now, reservations are starting at $250, and the price, before taxes and incentives, will start at around $29… Isn't that a bargain?
