According to the sources, Nissan will be investing $400 million in Fisker’s truck platform, including the production of the Alaska truck by 2026 in one of its plants in the US. In turn, the Japanese automaker will build its version of the electric pickup, possibly filling the void the Titan will leave by summer 2024.
Fisker refused to confirm the intel to Reuters, stating that the company doesn’t comment on speculations. Of note, the EV startup firm posted losses of $463.6 million for Q4 2023.
Revealed in August last year, the Alaska EV truck has two battery packs, 75 kWh and 113 kWh, promising a range of up to 340 miles. It’s 208.8 inches long – quite shorter than the 232.7-inch Ford F-150 Lightning – but touts a ‘Houdini partition’ that allows the bed to expand from 4.5 to 7.5 feet.
