If the $7500 federal tax credit the US government is offering now continues into 2024, the Pear's starting price will drop to $22400, or 2,1 million rubles at current rates. Right now the stated cost is 29900 USD or 2,8 million rubles.
The cars will probably go on sale towards the end of autumn 2024.

The company opened pre-orders so early to show battery manufacturers that they were making progress in developing the model.
Large companies that produce batteries for electric cars are now especially carefully checking “electric startups” like Fisker. Therefore, the manufacturer tries to clearly demonstrate the seriousness of its intentions.
The technical characteristics of Pear still remain a mystery even for those customers who managed to pre-order. Everything is clear with the design, and it is also noticeable that the car will be smaller than the Ocean crossover from the same company.
Fisker's CEO has made it clear that the new electric car will be an "agile urban EV." We will probably see a compact or at most mid-size crossover or hatchback.
The interior is fully consistent with the concept of a modern electric car.

Probably, its power reserve will not be that large (in a large city this is of no use), and the emphasis will be on comfort.
The mystery car is expected to be built on the Hon Hai EV electric platform from Foxconn. The location of production of the electric car is also known: the production site will be an automobile plant in Ohio, previously owned by Lordstown Motors.
We remind you that the Ocean crossover mentioned above, also the first Fisker electric car, will begin production in November 2024. The starting price will be 37499 US dollars or 3,5 million rubles.
