Nothing about a pickup truck.
"The third EV Fisker model, described as “a redefinition of a luxury sports car of the future”, is under development at Fisker Magic Works, the recently announced UK engineering centre led by former Aston Martin special projects chief Dave King. Henrik Fisker said the spirit of the model is that of “a proper British sports car”, although because it has neither a big front engine nor a large rear-mounted fuel tank, it lacks both the high bonnet line and comparatively long tail of conventional GTs.
The form of Fisker’s fourth car is still being discussed, although the designer seems unlikely to challenge the many luxurious EV saloons he believes already crowd the market. “We have many options,” he said, “because there are so many EV segments that still have no entries. If you’re looking for a Porsche Boxster-type car, or a minivan, you have very few options. Anyway, we don’t have to decide for a while.”

Hopefully he will do later on!
We all know that Henrik's favorite is a sport car like Karma or Aston Martin so I believe he will launch an expensive sport car saloon to compete MB, BMW, Jaguar, etc...
It will be very expensive, out of my budget, and will generate a lot of cash. 💰💰💰

Henrik Fisker:

”Getting David King, [ex-Aston Martin Racing boss] on board,
who I know from my days at Aston Martin,
will allow us to do some exceptional, enthusiast-focused vehicles
that will be higher-priced and lower-volume.”

MAGIC WORKS SPECIALTY DIVISION

Right now we have two vehicles that David King is working with me on defining.

We already have design concepts for those two vehicles.

the second role for Magic Works is that if we end up doing specialty vehicles,
like a police version of the Ocean, that will probably be done there.”

I remember reading a while back that Magic Works would be doing 2 vehicles, one over $100,000 and the other under. I guess that's still the case although the article only mentions one specifically. It's not clear from the article if Henrik is discussing the fourth model with Magic Works.

I've read the same thing in the past. This article makes it sound like only one is definite. "The form of Fisker’s fourth car is still being discussed..."

I like that Henrik is looking for areas other companies aren't doing so much.

This is what he was saying a few months ago. “Fisker Magic Works provides us with an opportunity to create sustainable and fantastic vehicles outside the confines of established industry segments. Bringing on David King further strengthens our engineering and creative expertise, and I’ve already assigned him two exciting projects which will showcase our capability in highly specialised materials and technologies designed especially for the eco-conscious automotive enthusiast.” This quote makes it sounds like they had firm plans for the 2 Magic Works models. The newer quote sounds like they don't know what the fourth model will be yet (The form of Fisker’s fourth car is still being discussed...). So obviously something has changed.

Hopefully one is similar to the Atlantic or Emotion.

You've got me feeling Emotion
Deeper than I ever dreamed of

No Atlantic or Sunset (which is way prettier), Karma Auto owns those designs.

I just hope that Fisker uses the name EMotion for a future model. That's probably a perfect name for an electric vehicle. I mostly like the EMotion concept, but the front looks a bit odd to me.

I agree, the front is a miss for me. I do love how the doors open though, do that! How about offer a kit for the Ocean. How many SUVs have doors like that?
