Fisker seeks judge's approval to sell Ocean EVs at $14,000 per SUV

Fisker hopes to sell off its entire inventory of remaining Ocean SUVs in a deal that would bring the bankrupt EV startup up to $46.25 million it can use to pay its debts. Under the proposed deal, outlined in a Tuesday filing in U.S. bankruptcy court in Delaware, Fisker would sell up to 3,231 Oceans to American Lease, a New York-based firm that leases EVs to ride-hailing drivers.

Four-cylinder cars are becoming more and more popular.

This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, though, with four-cylinder engines usually being notoriously reliable.

For as long as there have been electric vehicles, their critics have disingenuously argued that it’s impossible for EVs to ever take hold in the U.S. until the working class can afford to drive them. Despite that not having been a prerequisite for the proliferation of pricey trucks and SUVs, it’s been a pervasive topic in the world of cars. Well, it seems that can’t ever be argued again, as some dealers are positively giving electric cars away. A Nissan dealer in Colorado is offering fifteen brand new lease deals on Leaf S models advertised at zero money down and a ridiculously low 19 dollars per month!

Ferrari plans to offer a $7,500 annual battery subscription for its hybrid and future all-electric vehicles. The extended warranty service is intended to ease concerns about range degradation as the battery-equipped Ferrari models age, Bloomberg reports. The Italian automaker also intends for the service to maintain the resale value of these vehicles. Ferrari is currently developing a noisy prototype electric car.

A symbol of American automotive luxury for over 50 years, the Cadillac Eldorado embodied a spirit of elegance and innovation. Debuting in 1953, it began as a top-of-the-line rear-wheel drive convertible, but throughout its twelve-generation run, the Eldorado constantly changed. Shifting to a front-wheel-drive platform in 1967, it remained a pillar of Cadillac’s design language.

The last several months have been messy for the electric vehicle industry, to put it mildly. Major players like General Motors, Ford and Mercedes-Benz are pumping the brakes on their electrification efforts, citing uneven and unpredictable consumer demand. Many drivers remain hesitant to go electric because they’re worried about a lack of charging stations and insufficient range.

Recently, Lindsey Thompson brought her Ford Taurus to Cherokee Auto Sales in North Knoxville, Tennessee – a used vehicle, “buy here pay here” sort of establishment – for service after experiencing some transmission issues. This made perfect sense given the fact that she also purchased that same Ford Taurus from the same dealer back in June 2023, along with a 12,000-mile two-year service contract. However, that routine task soon turned into a nightmare for Thompson, it seems.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska.
