Nissan’s potential $400 million investment in Fisker sparks optimism; talks ongoing, deal could finalize soon, boosting Fisker’s EV market position.
Today, Nissan’s potential strategic investment in Fisker is generating significant buzz. News broke about this development shortly after Fisker’s shares hitting an all-time low. According to Reuters, Nissan might inject a substantial $400 million into Fisker’s truck platform. This caused Fisker’s shares to rebound and close at $0.4825 per share at the end of the week. The excitement didn’t end there, as after-hours trading saw Fisker’s shares rise by 7.73% to $0.5198, indicating a positive outlook among investors.
Henrik Fisker, Chairman & CEO of Fisker Inc, sat down with Yahoo Finance to discuss the company’s performance and its recent shift towards a dealer partnership model. Although Henrik refrained from commenting on the reported deal with Nissan, he did address the ongoing discussions with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) regarding a potential strategic investment. Henrik stated that these conversations had been ongoing for over six months, underscoring the considerable groundwork already laid. He expressed hope that a deal would be finalized soon.
The postponement of several OEMs’ electric vehicle programs has created a unique market segment for Fisker Alaska. Currently, there are no direct EV competitors in terms of price and features. Henrik Fisker has indicated that a strategic partnership could significantly bolster Fisker’s growth strategy and facilitate local manufacturing. Henrik also emphasized the Fisker’s desire to focus on working with a single strategic partner that best aligns with its vision and goals.

Neither Fisker nor Nissan have officially commented on the speculation. However, unidentified sources suggest that the deal between the two companies could be finalized as early as this month. Talks are ongoing, and the terms have not been disclosed. Nevertheless, the potential investment from Nissan could mark a significant milestone for Fisker’s future in the electric vehicle market. And one thing is certain, closing this deal would significantly boost Fisker owner and shareholder confidence. We’ll keep you posted as this game-changing EV partnership unfolds.
