Earlier this week, the company slashed its production target for
the year to 13,000 to 17,000 vehicles, from 20,000-23,000 units
to avoid accumulation of inventory and better manage working
capital.
The EV maker delivered 107 vehicles on Thursday, crossing the
100 mark for the first time after executing a new strategy that
brought in revenue of $7.5 million in one day.
Fisker said it has added several logistics partners to transport
Ocean SUVs to delivery locations so that they can be handed over
to customers quickly.
An employee can drive a customer's car to them if they live
within 60 miles of a Fisker fulfillment location, eliminating
the use of vehicle transport, the company said.
"We expect this pace of deliveries to accelerate, and we will
provide frequent updates during the remainder of 2023," CEO
Henrik Fisker said.
The company said many customers take delivery of their car
within four to seven days of completing their purchase, and even
on the same day if they choose to pick their vehicle up.
