The Fisker Ocean is a spacious electric SUV with impressive range and power. However, its appeal is marred by significant drawbacks. Issues such as a clunky touchscreen interface and an unreliable key fob make the ownership experience frustrating. Following the company's bankruptcy, many promised features remain undelivered, and postpurchase support has largely disappeared. Even with its low price on the used market, the Ocean is a vehicle we strongly recommend avoiding.

2023 Fisker Ocean Extreme 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)

I actually love the car, the design and looks, how it drives and feels on the road. I prefer driving it over my '23 Tesla Y. However I rate it low because many of the features you paid for are promised in the "next upgrade", which will never happen. The business model of Henrik Fisker is flawed and the cause of the company's failure. You'll never have proper support for the car, the …

This is a awsome vehicle, and a bit of a turd as well. Keep in mind that you are looking at buying a $60K to $70K originally priced vehicle for under $25k. Where can you get a 564HP 4wd for $25k or less. Where can you get 22" wheels and a sweet looking ride for less than $25k. leather seats and a Pano operable window for $25k. how about a 17" display, and a 6foot bed with the seats down. …

2023 Fisker Ocean Extreme 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)

Car is great to drive! Very peppy as long as you know how to operate it. Reading the owners manual is a must as this is a very complicated car, but once you learn its ins and outs it is a great car! The ability to convert the car from front wheel drive to four wheel drive with the touch of a steering wheel button is amazing. No other car allows the driver to do this! 350 miles of …

Incredible performance

Safety

Our experts like the Ocean models:

Rearview camera mirror: Uses a rearward facing camera to project a wider image onto the rearview mirror, allowing the driver to still see what's behind even if the cargo or passenger area is full.
Blind-spot monitoring: Flashes an alert if a vehicle is in or approaching your blind spot on either side.
Lane keeping assistance: Warns the driver if the vehicle is drifting out of its lane and can also perform light steering adjustments to help straighten the vehicle out.
