Dealers joining the Dealer Partnership program are the Mills
Automotive Group, Ourisman Fisker, Classic Fisker, and Long Island
Fisker.
“I’m excited by the rapid progress of the Dealer Partnership
model, which we announced just over a month ago,” Chairman and CEO
Henrik Fisker said. “The dealer partners we have signed up so far
share a commitment to the future of electric vehicles and to their
communities, many of which they have served for multiple
generations. I believe our customers will find that each of these
dealer partners plan to provide top-level service and ongoing
relationship building for owners of the class-leading and
award-winning Fisker Ocean SUV.”
Mills signed up to be Fisker’s first dealer partner in the US at
the company’s inaugural dealer open house on January 31 and will
open three Fisker dealerships in Charlotte and Raleigh, NC (Triad
Fisker); and Greenville, SC (Stateline Fisker).
Ourisman Fisker and Classic Fisker both signed at the National
Automobile Dealers Association Show in Las Vegas earlier this
month, and Long Island Fisker signed this week.
Ourisman Fisker, part of a fourth-generation dealership group,
will be located in Rockville, MD, in the Washington, DC area.
Classic Fisker will open a location in Atlanta, Long Island Fisker
plans to open a location in that region of New York state and
another in New Jersey. Altogether, these dealer partners intend to
open seven locations.
On January 4, 2024, Fisker announced that it would engage in a
strategic shift from direct sales to customers in North America to
an innovative Dealer Partnership model. The model combines the goal
of offering its customers no-haggle pricing on Fisker vehicles
(where permitted) and superb service while also providing dealer
partners with larger market territories, so they can maintain
pricing without concern for local competition. Taken together,
these goals represent a win-win-win for customers, dealers, and
Fisker. The transition to dealer partners aligns with Fisker’s
asset light business model, which enables the company to
significantly scale for Fisker Ocean deliveries and higher volume
production of additional future models.
Fisker has received interest from over 250 dealers in North
America and the rest of the world since announcing its strategic
shift.
Fisker is currently delivering the all-electric Ocean SUV, which
starts at $38,999, in the US, Canada, and Europe. In the US, the
Ocean has an EPA range of up to 360 mi 1, which is the longest
range of any new electric SUV in its class 2. The Fisker Ocean has
the lowest published carbon footprint of any electric SUV, uses
over 110 lbs. of recycled and bio-based materials, is built at a
carbon-neutral facility, and integrates rooftop solar panels,
adding up to 1,500 miles/year of range 3.

with standard 20” wheels. Actual results may vary for many reasons,
including driving conditions, wheel size, state of battery charge,
and how the vehicle is driven and maintained. 2 Mid-size SUVs in
comparable price segment. 3 Based on Fisker simulations. Ideal
conditions assume solar irradiation of 5.4 kWh/m2/day and steady
commuter driving. Actual results vary with conditions such as
