Fisker opens a new center in Lyon

After Toulouse, Fisker has signed a distribution agreement with a new partner in Lyon, France.

Fisker announced today the signing of an agreement with its new partner, Jean Lain Mobilities in Lyon, confirming the rollout of its network of partners across Europe. It is the second center for the brand in France, after EVE – Electric Vehicle Space in Toulouse.

Fisker’s business model relies on a hybrid system combining direct sales and dealerships. Partner dealers will have the essential task of ensuring a physical local presence that reassures customers of the brand. However, Fisker does not expect them to make significant changes to existing infrastructure. The manufacturer has developed corporate identity tools that it can quickly provide to its partners so they can start selling and providing services as soon as possible. Fisker will continue to maintain its network of Fisker Center+, Fisker Lounges, and service partners in European markets, offering customers an initial brand experience before directing them to selected dealerships.

The manufacturer currently offers only one model, the Ocean. This 100% electric SUV is already available for order in France starting at 43,990 euros. In the Extreme trim, it offers a WLTP range of up to 707 km for 64,590 euros, making it the longest-range electric SUV currently marketed in Europe. It also features solar panels on the roof, which can provide up to 2,400 km of additional range per year.

Fisker Partner Lyon will be open from Friday, March 8, 2024, at 10 Rue Louis Blanc, 69200 Vénissieux.
