The future Fisker Pear, announced in 2021, has been long overdue. Fortunately, our colleagues at Top Electric SUV give us a small idea of what it could look like.
Ever since the acquisition in 2014 by the Chinese group Wanxiang and after Karma’s monumental flop in 2008, Fisker tried to get back in the game. For this, the company, founded by Henrik Fisker and reborn in 2016 under the name of Fisker Inc., multiplies the projects.
After the Ocean – which we entered – which was first announced in 2019 a few days after the unveiling of the Tesla Model Y, the American manufacturer wants to bring a more affordable model to the market. This is the Fisker PEAR, named in 2021 and scheduled for release in 2024. This model has already registered 3200 pre-orders since its one and only teased released last May.
Great design
For now, official information is still scarce. But our colleagues at the Top Electric SUV site already seem well informed. So much so that they can give us a very precise idea of the style of the electric city car called PEAR. A name that has nothing to do with the fruit, but that means “Personal Electric Automotive Revolution”. Understand “personal electric car revolution”.
With a name like that, the ambitions are very strong. In addition, Henrik Fisker had even confirmed that this car “will be a revolutionary electric vehicle that does not fit into any existing segmentIt is true that according to the published view, hard to know if we are dealing with a city car, a compact SUV even a small minivanalthough a length of 4.50 meters is potentially expected
The whole looks spacious and aggressive, with a touch of modern Fiat Multipla. But we’ll have to wait for confirmation from Fisker to learn more about the final design. Anyway, the brand’s boss said that the exterior styling was final and that it would have nothing to do with that of the Ocean.
A concentrate of technology
Last June, Henrik Fisker revealed on his Instagram account a first image of the driving position of his future PEAR. This looks very futuristic, of course, but should be a bit more conventional on the production version. Associated with the Taiwanese electronic components company Foxconn, Fisker Inc. integrate many advanced technologies into its electric city car.
During the presentation of the results for the first quarter of 2022, the US company announced that the PEAR would benefit from great connectivity and numerous driver aids. One of the teasers showed a front with a LiDAR-like sensor. Should we understand that the car will come with relatively advanced autonomous driving capabilities? This is obviously quite possible, although Fisker has not confirmed this information. The city car would also be compatible with remote OTA updates.
Launch in 2024
Nothing has been said on the technical data sheet of this Fisker PEAR for the time being. However, we know you have to based on an entirely new platform, as the boss of the brand suggested at a previous conference. Announced as very profitable, it should equip two other models, which could see the light of day in 2025 and 2026. One of them could be a pickup inspired by the Tesla Cybertruck. The brand then plans to sell no fewer than one million vehicles by 2027 thanks to this new technical base.
It will have to wait until 2024 for the Fisker PEAR to arrive on US roads, while a first prototype could be unveiled next year. Assembled in the United States, the electric city car would try to position itself at a price of around $ 30,000. In the case of a launch in France, it would probably be necessary to aim a little higher due to the taxes inherent in our country.
