Fisker Targeting $45,000 Price, 340-Mile Range for Alaska Pickup
The Alaska is supposed to arrive in early 2025, will be built in the U.S., and claims to hit 60 mph in as little as 3.9 seconds, according to Fisker.
Opinion: Personally I’m not too into the pickup segment let alone an electric Santa Cruz but hey, something new! We’ll see how it shakes out.
Every EV tryin' to be under $50k and above 300 mile range. Good fuckin' luck, I'm getting tired of these promises.
I mean, it’s a target. You’re not going to hit it if you don’t try.
It's CEO fluff to inflate an EV brand and everyone does it and back peddles on when the time comes.
But why would you object to that target? If they could deliver, they have a vehicle similar in cost to what many people pay and with sufficient range to overcome most people’s range anxiety.
I more object to them setting the target with “or”, rather than “and”
Because it's a bold faced lie that gets them a bump in stock price.
This is just as ugly as the Hyundai Santa Cruz.
Another Minivan missing part of its roof. For fuck sakes car makers, electric Ford ranger Chevy S10 sized vehicle. For a reasonable price. The Maverick proves that people want and will buy pickups that size.
I kinda like the look of the Santa Cruz though. My boss has one and its a handsome looking ute. The typical angry, squared truck that Ford/Chevy/Dodge make is kinda tired.
But even more useless!
I understand trying to make electric cars different but at least make it look decent my god. I don’t understand how this goes through everyone it does and they think “Yeah, this looks like a great everyday car someone will drive”
It’s designed for the target demographic.
People that want to tail gate you with their oversized vehicle blocking everything that their lights don’t blind.
I like the look of it. Reminds me of a Santa Cruz.
Would love a truck like that, but damn, shits too expensive. Ive been priced out of new cars in that category.
I also think that’s way too expensive and wonder how people afford those, but apparently they do. I haven’t even looked at pickups and decades, but the list price way back then is still more than I’d pay now.
Man back then a base truck was 20 grand. Or a well equipped sedan for similar price.
Ew it looks like it was stung by a bee or something
Size-wise it looks perfect. I also like the styling, but no chance in hell it's going to hit that price point unless they are essentially giving these away to try to gain marketshare. Of course if that is what they are doing, it is a dangerous game which could cost them the entire company.

Is it the truckbed? Tell me its the truckbed. It's the truckbed isn't it.
As long as they look like this, Rivian or Cybertruck I'm sticking with my Diesel Navara.
If I can't put a service bed or a stake bed or a dump bed on it is it a truck? Why would I want a truck with a bed shorter than a loader bucket? We need electric trucks that can replace the thousands of 200,000k mile fleet vehicles out there. This is just a tall El Camino.
I would take an electric el Camino in a heartbeat.
Touche. So would I.
My Honda pickup is also basically a tall el Camino. For us, and the majority of people, it’s great. All wheel drive that favors the front wheels (Lockable at low speed) for beaches and slick roads, full independent suspension to keep the tires planted, enough ground clearance for mountain roads, enough towing for a small camper (but 5k limit is not doing heavy work), and a bed to haul stuff. I’m not a contractor or farmer that needs a real truck, so the compromises that make it better on wet or slick roads is perfect.
But I agree, we need F150 lightnings too for the contractors and farmers.
A truck bed that can't hold an adult bicycle is a joke.
Which makes it a much more dangerous and deadlier El Camino
