Fisker<\/a> has asked a bankruptcy judge overseeing its Chapter 11 proceedings to approve the sale of more than 3,000 Ocean<\/a> electric SUVs in its inventory for about $14,000 per car to a vehicle-leasing company.<\/p>\n

Following the judge’s nod, Fisker will be able to offload 3,321 electric vehicles<\/a> to New York-based American Lease for $46.25 million, according to a court filing on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The EV startup, which filed for bankruptcy protection last month, faced logistics issues while selling its Ocean electric SUVs and pivoted to a dealer-partner model earlier this year after burning through a large amount of cash.<\/p>\n

Some variants of its Ocean SUV were priced at around $70,000 and through its descent into bankruptcy, it cut prices of the cheapest variant to about $25,000 to raise capital to meet debt obligations.<\/p>\n

On May 30, two weeks before Fisker filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, American Lease agreed to buy 2,100 Ocean EVs and a month later increased that offer to buy all 3,321 Oceans that were ready for sale.<\/p>\n

American Lease serves ride share drivers in and around New York City, providing a fleet of cars on lease<\/a> or rent. New York City last year mandated the transition of the city’s rideshare fleet to either zero-emission vehicles or wheelchair accessible vehicles by 2030.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
