The Fisker Pear announced as a budget electric car project in 2021 has officially become the brand’s second product following the Fisker Ocean SUV. Reservations for the Fisker Pear are open in the United States. Early birds can pre-order with a small deposit of USD 250. Customers making a second reservation get a USD 150 discount (second reservation deposit – USD 100).

Design

Fisker announced its economy-class EV in February 2021, releasing a teaser that hinted at a new light crossover SUV. Given the high popularity of crossover/SUV models in the brand’s core markets (existing and planned), it is understandable that it would prefer this body type.

The first teaser revealed not much except a hip design, which would be in line with the Fisker Ocean SUV, and compact dimensions, which would make it suitable for the narrow roads of European cities and the crowded streets of Asia. Apart from the USA and Canada, Fisker is considering launching the two-box design in China and Europe.

In Feb 2022, Fisker released another teaser which offered a closer look at the details. It seems like the Pear will indeed be a crossover SUV and, at least in its concept version, feature a full-width light bar at the front and rear, in what is fast becoming a signature design cue of bespoke EVs. Fisker says that the Pear will be a compact EV offering seats for five people, intuitive controls, sporty driving, and clever storage. The company won’t stop at teasers, though — it plans to unveil a concept version beforehand to help customers visualize exactly what the production version will look like.

“Reinventing the car as we know it”

In a recent interview with Wallpaper, Henrik Fisker, Chairman & CEO, Fisker, said that the Pear is about “reinventing the car as we know it.” Designed for the urban mobility and young people, Fisker expects that the new entry-level car should generate buzz and win hearts across the globe and become an iconic model like the VW Beetle and the MINI Cooper. The odds of releasing a truly iconic, worldwide classic is perhaps one in ten thousand, but Fisker is committed to designing a car that’ll be remembered for decades.

Release Date

Fisker Pear deliveries in the U.S. will begin in 2024. A concept version allowing reservation holders and other potential customers to get a fair idea of what they can expect from the final product could debut at the end of this year or early 2023. Fisker has suggested that the company may unveil the production version close to the launch in 2024.

The design sketch hints at the direction we are taking. However, with the level of innovation planned for this vehicle, I intend to keep the final design a surprise until the last possible moment!

Henrik Fisker, Chairman and CEO, Fisker

Price

Fisker plans to launch the Pear at a competitive starting price of USD 29,900 (excl. taxes and incentives). To achieve the low targeted prices, and bring the product to the market on time, Fisker is outsourcing the production to Foxconn, which will make the car in Ohio, USA. Foxconn is a Taiwanese contract manufacturer that manufactures Apple products.

Production

Fisker wants no less than 250,000 units of the Pear manufactured a year right from the initial stage. This is a really important point, as the company could be aiming for an even higher annual production capacity at a later stage in its pursuit to democratize EVs.

On February 24, 2021, Fisker announced that it had signed an MOU with Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn) and revealed the proposed collaboration highlights. As per the arrangement, Fisker and Foxconn would co-develop “a breakthrough new segment vehicle” with potential globally, including North America, Europe, China, and India. The MOU also stated that Foxconn would manufacture more than 250,000 units (projected volume) of this model annually, with the SOP scheduled in Q4 2023.

Foxconn is confident about the speedy development and rollout of this EV, estimating completion in half the time traditionally required to launch a new model.

The collaboration between our firms means that it will only take 24 months to produce the next Fisker vehicle – from research and development to production.

Young-way Liu, Chairman, Foxconn Technology Group

Fisker said that its tie-up with Foxconn for Project Pear “unlocks sub-$30k price point for a “no-compromises” EV.”

Previously on the Fisker Pear project

At the Bank of America 2021 Virtual Global Automotive Summit, Fisker talked about the Fisker Project Pear. He suggested that the company has already taken the core decisions about its design, platform, and specs. “We already have defined the platform, the specs, the main concept layout for this vehicle,” the CEO said. Further, he indicated that the potential Tesla Model 2/Model Q rival resulting from this project would be like no other car in the market today, ICE or electric.

The way you pay for that (urban) mobility is gonna be different with this vehicle. Even the way you order options of this vehicle is gonna be different. Even the way you load this vehicle is gonna be different. Everything about this vehicle will be different. Even the size of this vehicle – there is no vehicle on the planet that has the same width, length, and height.

Henrik Fisker, Chairman & CEO, Fisker (at Bank of America 2021 Virtual Global Automotive Summit)

The word PEAR is an abbreviation of Personal Electric Automotive Revolution. Inspiration for the Fisker Project PEAR “has come from some unconventional sources,” the CEO said.
