Fisker will pick up and return vehicles when it needs maintenance so customers don't have to bring it in to service.
The carpeting is made of recycled nylon created from fishing net waste found in the ocean.

The interior is fully vegan and Fisker claims it meets chemical emission limits for different volatile organic compounds.
This includes the eco-suede, which is made of recycled plastic, bottles, and polyester fibers from items like T-shirts. It also repurposes and uses its extra rubber waste from tire manufacturing.

"Eco-sustainability, as well as the lowest levels of polluting emissions and energy consumption, are guaranteed throughout the whole production cycle," Fisker claims. The automaker claims using recycled materials allows the company to reduce its emissions by 80%.
Production is set to begin at the end of 2021 with deliveries beginning in 2022. Fisker projects over one million vehicles will be made from 2022 to 2027.
