- Fisker has shown a teaser image for what will be its third model, after the Ocean and the Pear, called Project Ronin.
- The slinky sports car is aiming to have the longest range for a production EV and will include active aerodynamics and snazzy doors.
- A full reveal will come in August of 2023, with Fisker aiming for production in the second half of 2024.
Production of Fisker’s first new electric vehicle, the Ocean crossover, is set to begin this November, but before the Ocean officially arrives Fisker has already announced what it hopes will become its third model. Dubbed Project Ronin, the vehicle will be an electric sports car with seating for four and dramatic proportions, as revealed by the accompanying teaser image.
The name is a reference to the 1998 action film Ronin, starring Robert De Niro and remembered for its realistic car chases featuring European sedans sliding around Paris and the French countryside. Development of the grand touring sports car began last year, and Fisker’s lofty goal is for the Ronin to have “the world’s longest range for a production EV.” That means it will have to beat the Lucid Air, which is rated to deliver up to 520 miles of range by the EPA. Fisker claims that Project Ronin will have “an innovative battery design” that incorporates the battery pack into the structure of the vehicle. The sports car will also feature active aerodynamics and lightweight materials.
Fisker also says the Ronin will have unique doors that improve ingress and egress, but didn’t reveal what form these apertures will take. The cabin is described as “a luxurious, sustainable vegan interior.” Fisker says that Project Ronin will be fully unveiled in August 2023, with production beginning in the second half of 2024. Before then, Fisker is expected to reveal its second crossover, the Pear, with sales also planned for 2024.
