    My money (literally $5250) is on Fisker. I like their asset-lite business plan, their partnership with Magna that not only includes car production bit an ownership “skin in the game” stake and a great looking well performing car that is cheaper than a similarly appointed Tesla MY, Liriq or Mach E.
    Can’t wait to get mine end of this year/early 1st Q next year and as I was in the second wave of early invites, i feel its better than an 80/20 chance of happening that soon.

      @@bobdobslob it's not good business practice to tell enormous lies and commit crimes either, but that has not stopped Fisker so far. When Fisker first "came out of stealth mode" with this "company" he claimed to have a supercapacitor breakthrough with patents, a graphene production breakthrough with patented machine, a battery division lead by "nanotech expert" Jack Kavanaugh, and shortly after that claimed the supercapacitors were already in production. Reality was the supercapacitors were a science fair project that fit in your hand and lit a single LED, the graphene machine was literally a DVD burner, Jack Kavanaugh is a scam artist retired dentist who a court had recently determined to have defrauded investors and sold a fake Picasso. No patents had been filed for, let alone issued.
      Never mind, Fisker then claimed to have a solid state battery breakthrough with fifteen patents. What Fisker had was an effort to steal IP from Quantumscape, but he got caught and fined $750,000 by the courts.
      Now you think he is keeping his UI secret because he is a smarty-pants. Alternately, the fact that his company was basically his computer and his lies and he and his wife when "investors" gave him a billion dollars for it and the vast majority of employees have been there less than a year and were hired in great haste and are nowhere near having a functional UI could be the actual reason.

      It is a very niche market but I think competition will bring the price down to normal levels. When Prius first came out, it was 50k or more and was almost considered luxury because of all the elite clients. For now if you want a luxurious EV that gets range comparable to ICE, your choices are either Lucid (way better build) or Tesla. Porsche, Audi, Mercedes, etc are all lacking in major ways in one or more departments.

    Fisker will definitely survive because magna is making the ocean and I have yet to see magna fail at making any car the reason the other car companies are having problems it’s because they built their own factory and they’re trying to do it on their own and that’s extremely tough magna builds BMWs and Mercedes and Toyotas so they know what they’re doing so I would say Fisker will definitely survive

    Ones to succeed:
    Rivian:for deep pockets (although burning through money fastest.) Seem to be ramping up.
    Lucid: most efficient battery-drivetrain. Clean balance sheet. Saudi PIF backing.
    Fisker: asset light with manufacturing partnerships with magna and foxconn.
    Polestar: already scaling and making profit. Like fisker, asset light with manufacturing connection with Volvo and Geely.
    Can't say much for the rest.

      EVs are quite a bit easier to develop than ICE counterparts, hence 100s of new brands, especially in China. Technology is going to be the dominating factor in EV, with price coming in close second. Most EVs are using same drivetrain, platform and battery technology. Engineering like swappable battery, subscription lease, Full Self Drive, etc will make or break these new companies. Dont think 0-60 in 2 second is going to matter in the long run.

      It is worse than that, because the ones with the most cash may be worse off and not better. The original Fisker Automotive had a lot more cash than Tesla had, and they burned though it and died quickly. Lucid and Rivian not only have piles of cash, they have big backers, and that may, and seems to have, allowed them to be reckless about spending money. Elon Musk recently stated in an interview that without a dramatic change of course, both Rivian and Lucid are going to go under quickly, and he knows a thing or two about EV startups.

    • @SkyRiver1
      @SkyRiver1 2 роки тому +2

      The Chinese are coming and they have some nice EVs for as low as 9k USD but they are mostly state majority owned companies and have different rules and incentives than profit based companies. If Tesla had tried to make the affordable EV first and the luxury models later it would be out of business. What you are saying cannot be done with current regulations in the US or Europe. In fact even at the prices they are now charging, the only company outside of China that is capable of making a profit on EVs is Tesla. I mean you can buy a crap EV like an old leaf for cheap, but they are cheap for a reason. Currently the price of a Tesla is actually cheaper than a gas car that cost ten thousand dollars less, if you consider the cost of operation and ownership. Depending on your electricity costs EVs can operate virtually for free, except for tires and insurance. If you already have solar, or live someplace with abundant cheap hydro-electricity you would be ahead in one year at today's gas prices. I pity the fools in their dumb monster trucks who think it's cool to drive pickups they never pick up anything with, and off roaders that never go off road. They are feeling it. Good time to get a deal on a extended cab dually diesel if you want to cry everytime you put fuel in it.
      If you had bought a Tesla two years ago, you could have driven it for two years and sold it today for more than you paid for it.

All these supply chain issues, though also hurting Tesla, has also delayed many of its competitors. Tesla's technology and design is starting to look stale. My bet is on the Geely group overtaking Tesla by 2025. Also if Fisker is close to what it says on paper, they will be a huge success. EVs are quite a bit easier than ICE to develop and manufacture. Most of them are using the same batteries (including Tesla), same platform etc. Service and technology such as Full Self Drive, innovative lease and subscription, price, etc will be a huge factor in the EV market. Tesla has superchargers which is a huge deal but they are thinking of making those inclusive unlike what Apple did vs Android and Microsoft.

    Lucid was stupid. Trying to out-Tesla Tesla. Tesla did all the R&D for them. They should have copied their blueprint instead of trying to beat them at their own game. Secondly, the Air sedan is hideous looking. The nearly decade old Model S and sleek Porsche Taycan makes the air look like a shoe. Tesla did it right. Roadster was their first car. A partnership with Lotus to save money. Model S followed and was mostly mono-spec with the exception of some small changes here and there. Model X was an engineer’s wet dream and served as the car to get people in Tesla dealerships. It is completely ridiculous in every way and I think that was on purpose. Then they followed that with the affordable Model 3 (also largely mono-spec for cost savings) and the red hot Model Y. SUV’s are ALL the craze. You’d think Licid would have released a sports car or an SUV. But instead they try to take the fight to Tesla and…. Well, Dead on arrival. Rivian was smart. They copied Tesla’s homework by releasing something fresh and new and kinda gimmicky, but avoided stepping on Tesla’s toes directly by engineering a product that they don’t have. But most of their software mimics Tesla which is the smart thing to do because again, Tesla has already done the R&D on what works/what people will tolerate. I can go on and on, but I predict that Rivian will succeed and Licid will be gone.

Bring out an EV that is between $15K and $25K and YOU WILL get buyers, but at $45K + (with $45K being cheap) - don't expect to come into a market dominated by Tesla! Tesla is missing a BIG part of the population because their cheapest vehicle is still expensive for the average consumer! Stop blaming EVERYTHING else, your ENTRY strategy is WRONG - build AFFORDABLE and you will win the market - you bank on that! I can afford a $45K EV, but I can get MORE for the bang in a gas vehicle for LESS money, so WHY would I go for that - it would be stupid and THEN the charging time you have to spend on a 1600 mile road trip - gassing up is faster and you do not have to drive around and look for a stupid "charging station" and hope and pray there's not 20 EV there before you!

      Canoo has potentially got 2 vw van level meme worthy designs primed to ignite a van-o-lution ( in a time of more and more homelessness and homelessness insecurity) the LV and MPDV, priced to move, not $100k+ but starting at $33k. They've got thousands of orders and preorders and Walmart may invest to own up to 20% of Canoo. I honestly don't know what people are thinking saying these other companies are more likely to survive than Canoo.

    Unless they can produce more vehicles per day than what I can count on one hand, the traditional automakers are gonna eat their lunch and they all will be out of business within 2 years.

      That’s crazy the 3 trillion dollar company Foxconn have jv agreements with both fisker and Lordstown. The supply chain challenges are now out the window, look at Foxconn’s footprints. They bought the Lordstown motors factory, ev battery factories.
