That’s despite the EV running the latest software version. So what did Consumer Reports find that made it come to this conclusion?

History, as it turns out, tends to repeat itself. Fisker, the up-and-coming California-based EV startup, is trying as hard as possible to sell its sole product, the battery-powered Ocean crossover, and avoid bankruptcy. It’s an interesting product with some features that would make any car enthusiast interested in at least going for a test drive. However, as more and more owners and journalists experience the Ocean EV, the biggest thing that stands out is that the car isn’t exactly finished.

It’s worth noting that while MKBHD’s car wasn’t running the latest version of Fisker’s software, V2.0, Consumer Reports’ car did. However, CR described the Ocean’s powertrain as being “bizarrely tuned,” referring to the fact that the driver needs to push the accelerator way down to feel any sort of engagement when using the default “Earth” driving mode.
