Fisker Inc. (Fisker) – designer and manufacturer of the world’s
most emotion-stirring, eco-friendly electric vehicles and advanced
mobility solutions – today announced the signing of a vehicle order
for 300 units with Viggo, the technology-driven Danish ride-hailing
service.
Viggo, founded in 2019, is aiming to challenge the standards for
urban transportation through advanced data-driven innovation,
zero-emission cars and Scandinavian simplicity. Since founding,
Viggo has built a network of more than 55 (100 projected by the end
of the year) electric cars and delivered more than 100,000 rides.
The company will expand into Norway in 2021 and the 300 Fisker
Ocean all-electric luxury SUVs, to be delivered Q4 2022, will be a
strong part of its Scandinavian expansion. Viggo’s focus is on
business users and has brought many large multinational companies
into its customer/user base.
“We created the Fisker Ocean with space, range and value as
product priorities, attributes that are also very important to
Viggo, their drivers and customers,” said Henrik Fisker, chairman
and CEO of Fisker. “As someone born and raised in Denmark, I am
also personally proud that this Danish company has chosen to work
with Fisker and put their confidence in our company and products.
This agreement is the first of many multi-vehicle orders that we
are planning to sign with both mobility companies like Viggo and
large corporate fleets.”
Fisker recently announced a strategic cooperation with Magna
International supporting the co-development and manufacture of the
Fisker Ocean SUV, projected to launch in Q4 2022. The Ocean will be
assembled by Magna in Europe and is poised to deliver class-leading
range, functional interior space with third-row seating and overall
vehicle performance.
“We founded Viggo to create a better experience all-around for
our customers, and so our choice of vehicle is a critically
important part of that service delivery,” commented Viggo CEO
Kenneth Herschel and Viggo Chairman Peter Bardenfleth-Hansen. “The
seating and flexible space of the Fisker Ocean, together with the
projected cost of operation, makes this vehicle a very logical
choice for our fleet,” continued Mr. Herschel.
