The Ocean’s Interior: A Sustainable Design
The Ocean’s interior has been meticulously crafted with a focus on sustainability and a resource-light footprint. Fisker, the company behind the design, has incorporated over 50kg of recycled content into the car, including carpets and seat fabrics made from recaptured sea plastics. This commitment to using recycled materials extends to the unpainted and uncoated fascia mouldings, making them easier to manufacture and recycle.
One innovative feature of the Ocean is the hidden door speakers, mounted on the ‘B-side’ of the panel to reduce manufacturing complexity. This attention to detail not only showcases Fisker’s dedication to sustainability but also enhances the overall aesthetic of the car.
While some may view these design choices as a way to cut costs and compete with European brands, Fisker’s commitment to sustainability goes beyond mere financial considerations. The Ocean’s interior does not compromise on quality or durability. Despite its simplicity, the cabin exudes a sense of sophistication that is both functional and stylish.
The cabin of the Ocean boasts a clean and minimalist look, with a column-mounted shift selector and a 17.1-inch portrait-orientated touchscreen console serving as the focal point. The layout is intuitive and user-friendly, with separate physical controls for essential functions such as heating, air conditioning, windows, and the sunroof.
