Fisker and its partner Foxconn recently completed the acquisition of an operational 6.2-million square-foot vehicle manufacturing facility in Ohio and aim to manufacture over 250,000 units a year once production ramps up to full scale. Fisker says it has designed and engineered the Pear to reduce parts for rapid, simplified manufacturing. The Fisker Pear will be built on a new proprietary architecture. This new platform will underpin two additional models Fisker will introduce later. The Fisker Pear follows the company's first vehicle, the Fisker Ocean, which starts production in Austria on November 17, 2022.
