Kriseramt Fisker forced to close headquarters

There are many indications that Fisker Inc., which looks like a car brand millimeters from bankruptcy, is now being forced to leave its headquarters in California.

Fisker Inc. looks more and more like a dead business.

Most recently, the car brand has closed a crucial service in both Denmark and the USA. Read more about it here. And now there are many indications that the last employees are moving workplaces.

In any case, Business Insider writes that the remaining employees were already told in April to vacate their offices in the car brand's domicile in Manhattan Beach, California. Here, the car brand moved into 2020.

Fisker's entire business has instead moved a good 10 kilometers further down the road, where the car brand already houses its development department. However, the car brand did not want to confirm the media's interpretation.

On the other hand, it is absolutely certain that Fisker Inc. has recently fired several employees on several occasions. And that the car brand's own business in Denmark is closed.

Magna Steyr, which builds the Fisker Ocean car at a factory in Austria, also does not expect to see more of either Henrik Fisker or new orders for cars. In fact, the production of Fisker Ocean has been at a standstill since March 18 this year.

In fact, we have reached the point in the car brand's history where the founder's house is worth more than the entire Henrik Fisker car brand. If Fisker Inc. goes bankrupt, it will not be the first time this has happened to the Danish designer.

Both Fisker's first attempt at a car brand, Fisker Automotive, and the even earlier Fisker Coachbuild suffered that fate.
