Don't know why the description of all these EVs refer to how it compares to the "Ocean", as if anyone knows what that is. I've never seen an Ocean on the street, and only heard about it here.

The hatch looks awkward and inefficient. Hatch openings need to be as big as possible, even if that means it isn't exactly a square.

Finally, I've never heard of this car company. Didn't know the company that makes gardening tools also makes cars. Guess that's not so strange because a piano company makes motorcycles.
It's FISKER, not FISKAR.
Henrik Fisker in a pretty big deal in design circles. He co-designed the 2004 Aston Martin DB9 with Ian Callum. He's done a stint as designer with VLF Automotive. I saw one of his Fisker Kharma on the West Coast a few weeks ago. Steyr MAGNA of Austria is helping with the manufacturing side of design.
The PEAR will go head-to-head with Chevy's upcoming Equinox BEV. The affordable Tesla that never materialized. Yet.
The OCEAN is to be the lowest drag SUV ever sold. The PEAR may have some aero bragging rights. We'll see.
