Fisker’s bankruptcy plan has been approved, with an additional $2.5 million committed to providing crucial tech support for Ocean EV owners. The agreement ensures vehicle software updates, diagnostic data, and remote access will continue despite the automaker's financial troubles.
American Lease Secures Fisker Ocean EV Deal with $2.5M Technical Support Commitment Amid Bankruptcy
After the deal was nearly halted this week due to service concerns for owners, the troubled electric vehicle (EV) maker Fisker has been approved for its bankruptcy plan to dispose of its remaining inventory.
The Ocean EV manufacturer, Fisker, submitted filings to sell its remaining 3,231 units to American Lease for $46.25 million weeks after filing for bankruptcy in June. Each electric vehicle (EV) is valued at between $2,500 and $16,500, and the transaction involves liquidating new, previously owned, and defective units through a sale.
Nevertheless, as Automotive News has described, the agreement was nearly suspended this week when American Lease recognized that it might not transfer Fisker's critical data and support services to its servers. American Lease resolved this issue by providing an additional $2.5 million commitment over five years to access Fisker's technical support services. This officially resulted in the approval of the automaker's bankruptcy filing and benefited current Ocean EV owners.
Judge Approves Fisker Bankruptcy Plan, Secures Tech Support for Ocean EV Owners Amid SEC Investigation
According to Teslarati, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Thomas Horan officially approved the Fisker filing on October 11, allowing the EV company to pay off debts by selling its remaining EVs and transmitting intellectual property to its creditors.
If the tech support agreement were not in place, Ocean owners would be deprived of essential vehicle software updates, diagnostic data, and the ability to access their vehicles remotely, among other issues. The ruling was also a response to the apprehensions of numerous Ocean owners regarding the fate of their vehicles following the bankruptcy filing. Despite this, the EV manufacturer had previously approved 23 service shops in the United States and Canada.
Before its official filing, Fisker had been on the brink of bankruptcy for several months, and it appeared to be the most viable alternative for the company after a previously anticipated acquisition from Nissan was unsuccessful earlier this year.
Additionally, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued numerous subpoenas to Fisker last week. The SEC is investigating the electric vehicle manufacturer and has recently opposed the liquidation plans.
