A small detail intrigued us during the presentation of the new Fisker Pear. A trunk seemingly disappearing into the floor! Innovation or magic?

Such an idea could only come from the inventive mind of a great designer. Henrik Fisker began his career at Aston Martin and BMW. Father of the Aston Martin DB9 and the BMW Z8, he later decided to launch his own brand and became well known to the public in the early 2010s thanks to the exceptional Fisker Karma. This large four-door coupe (5 meters long and 1.99 meters wide) stood out with its endless hood and impressive 22-inch wheels. A plug-in hybrid far ahead of its time, the car remains today a highly sought-after collector’s item.

Fisker plays Houdini

After a decade-long lull, Fisker made a grand comeback with two new models, the Ocean and the Pear, which today reveals a very neat feature. This high-riding compact sedan is supposed to revolutionize urban mobility for trendy young city dwellers.

It already offers an optional front bench seat that can be configured into a 3-seat arrangement, similar to the Multipla. But today, its trunk is in the spotlight. Named the “Houdini trunk,” it drops behind the rear bumper to provide a loading mode into obstacles. It’s very clever and does not seem to reduce the cargo volume. A successful magic trick!

And if the rear trunk isn’t enough, there’s the “frunk,” a front trunk with good capacity. Two trunks for twice the fun.

A charming look, full of delightful gadgets, and an affordable price announced in Europe at €32,900. Everything is in place to ensure a bright future for this lovely Pear.
