e.w. niedermeyer: Startups are so good and necessary for EV adoption! I'm sure that buying a new car for $70k and within less than a year having it lose all its value along with the ability to get service and spare parts isn't going to turn anyone off EVs. Nope, this was all so good for the planet, for sure.

Looks like bankruptcy court has established the ceiling price for Fisker Oceans at $14,000, right in line with my prediction that it wouldn't exceed the teens. Meanwhile the no reserve Bring A Trailer auction has hit $5,000. The base MSRP for these cars was supposed to be $38,999.

very curious to find out what people will pay for a low-mileage EV from a bankrupt startup! current bid is a saucy $2,000 and considering you can get a used Tesla or Polestar from Hertz in the 20s I'm guessing this Fisker never leaves the teens

Looks like a leasing company agreed to buy brand new perfect condition cars for $16,500, previously-titled examples for $3,200, and damaged vehicles for $2,500. Again, the new price range for these ran from $39,000 to about $70,000. Hope you didn't buy one new! insideevs.com/news/725340/...

Fisker Hopes To Sell Remaining Ocean SUVs For $2,500-$16,500 Each In Bulk Dealinsideevs.com A leasing firm has agreed to buy around 3,000 Fisker Oceans for up to $46.25 million.

If I bought a new one I would have bought a second, discounted one as a source for spare parts.

Odds on Fisker starting a third company?

But maybe Henrik Fisker's *next* startup will be successful. Maybe he'll even call it Fisker again.
