Fisker in Norway has gone bankrupt – the cars are worth 'nothing'

Fisker Inc.'s Norwegian subsidiary filed for bankruptcy this week. Now a curator must be appointed to clean up the remains.

Fisker Inc. in Norway is not covered by the bankruptcy protection that Fisker in Denmark, together with the American parent company, entered under in June.

However, the car brand's decline can also be felt in Norway. And this week it ended. Fisker Inc. in Norway has gone bankrupt.

Several media reports. Among other things, Elbil24 and Bilnytt.no .

Now a curator must be appointed, who will clean up the estate and try to get the Norwegian company's creditors money. Or at least as many as possible.

The news of the Norwegian bankruptcy came the day after Fisker Inc. was forced to recall every car the brand had ever built. All because a mandrel handle is not working properly.

The creditors behind the parent company in the US are left and fight over who will get money out of the company first. The few funds that may be in the company come primarily from the stock cars.

In the bankruptcy court, it has emerged that Fisker has almost donated 3,200 cars to an American leasing company in order to thin out the stocks around.

The rest of the cars are now sold as low as DKK 17,000. For that kind of money, you can expect a brand new car. But these are cars with damage. Read more about it here .

One of the creditors who believe they owe Fisker money is the factory Magna Steyr in Austria. It is said that Fisker initially paid for the cars with shares.

Shares that have been worthless ever since the car brand went off the stock exchange in New York. Even Fisker will only acknowledge a fraction of the debt. Read more about it here .

In Norway, the first trial of Fisker's bankruptcy estate will be held in the Nordre Østfold district court on 6 August at 12.30. This is done via telephone and therefore not physically present.
