The New Fisker Electric Truck Is Coming. Will it Rival Tesla?

Key takeaways

• Fisker just debuted a new lineup of EVs, including a truck
• The automaker expects to deliver its electric truck in 2025
• EV competition is heating up, presenting a potential challenge for Tesla

Automaker Fisker debuted its new prototypes last week, showing off a whole collection of EVs in progress. The collection includes: a convertible GT sports car, an SUV, and, notably, the Fisker Alaska. The Alaska will — if all goes according to plan — be the world’s lightest EV pickup truck and the world’s most sustainable truck to date.

The Fisker Alaska at a glance

The Fisker Alaska truck is designed to work as your daily vehicle, but it can also do some heavy lifting.

The Alaska includes an extendable cargo bed (4.5 feet to 7.5 feet to 9.2 feet) and a bed divider. Fisker estimates the Alaska will have a driving range of anywhere between 230 and 340 miles, depending on the exact configuration you get.

If you want an Alaska ASAP, you can expect it in your driveway in 2025. It’ll cost you about $45,400, and, thanks to Fisker’s plans to produce it in the U.S., you may be eligible for that $7,500 tax credit.

Is Tesla nervous?

Let’s take a look at how the Alaska stacks up against other EV trucks in terms of price and features. First things first: Fisker looks like it’s going to pull off a relatively affordable EV truck option compared to its competitors. The F-150 Lightning — a bigger truck — comes in just over $50,000. The Rivian R1T — also bigger and higher end — will run you at least $73,000.

That means the Fisker Alaska is a deal. And, for some, its smaller size is a bonus.

Of course, the brand to beat on all things EV is Tesla, and, in this category, the soon-to-be-released Tesla Cybertruck. The Alaska looks like a more classic compact truck, albeit a modern one, while the Cybertruck looks like it just got beamed here from another planet.

At the end of the day, if someone wants to drive the wild looking Tesla, they’re going to just go with that. But for folks genuinely just in search of the best EV truck for them? The Alaska stands a good chance thanks to its manageable size, approachable price, and efficient weight for performance.

The bottom line

There are early signs that Fisker can outperform its rivals, even Tesla, at least in certain categories. Fisker’s Ocean compact SUV has an EPA driving range rating of 360 miles. The Tesla Model Y Long Range? Just 330 miles.

For now, Fisker stock isn’t looking too hot as it continues to notch losses, but we’ll see how the battle of the trucks unfolds as these new models hit the road.
