Interesting to hear HF talk about how this vehicle is targeted at young people in megacities. I have a prediction: It will sell very well among retirees. My case:
• Obv. most ALL new cars are bought by people over 50 so I am already stacking the deck in my favor
• There is a pretty large price sensitive retiree new car buying population (the main reason new care average income is lower than you might expect is because a lot of retirees are income light but asset rich).
• It hits the right notes just like the Prius (also very popular with the older crowd) with low fuel and maintenance, practicality of a houdini hatch.
• They do not drive much - over 65s drive just 7,600 miles a year (just 4,700 miles for women over 65) - so a lower range, fast charging vehicle is a good fit.
HF may think he is build an urban hipster mobile, but I think he will need to open a showroom at The Villages. 🙂

Reminds me of the old Ford Escort Station wagon (which is no bad thing, was an exceptionally practical affordable car which I confess I once owned and too me through graduate school).

I really think that Fisker should focus on getting the Ocean to the market right now until the Ocean deliveries are stable before introducing other models/images/specs etc...

That's nothing. They are planning on having four models out by 2025 (Ronin plus one more). And the four models don't even count the pick-up truck they are considering or a 3-row Ocean they have hinted. They are trying to get into to as many segments as possible while the industry is still in its infancy.
