Fisker Inc. is an American electric vehicle automaker founded by Henrik Fisker and his wife Geeta Gupta-Fisker. Launched in 2016 and based in Southern California, Fisker Inc. was preceded by Fisker Automotive (founded in 2007 by Henrik Fisker), which produced the Fisker Karma. Fisker Inc. is developing the Fisker Ocean, an all-electric SUV made from recycled and vegan materials, with an estimated range of 300-350 miles.[2] The rebirth of Fisker (from Fisker Automotive) was mostly based on claims on the development of new battery technologies such as 500-mile range battery by 1-min charging.Peer-reviewed publications, on the other hand, discussed that there is no scientific basis for these extraordinary claims and they are only for the sake of fundraising.
On July 13, 2020, Fisker Inc. announced an initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange through a merger with Spartan Energy Acquisition Corp (NYSE:SPAQ), which is backed by private equity firm Apollo Global Management. On October 30, 2020, Fisker Inc. completed the reverse merger and is now listed under the ticker (NYSE:FSR).
