The production plant, meanwhile, was to be run on only renewable energy. As of May 2022, Fisker was releasing teasers to gradually reveal the exterior design of the Pear. The latter used aesthetic elements inspired by their other vehicle, the Fisker Ocean, especially in the front. The Pear, which was to join the Ocean in the Fisker range, was aimed to be launched in 2025. The price of the vehicle at launch would have been around $30,000. In March 2024, due to the ongoing financial difficulties Fisker Inc was facing, it was announced that development of the Pear had been paused while the company sought a partnership with a larger car manufacturer in order to secure funds. By October 2024 Fisker filed for bankruptcy and the pear was cancelled.
