Recently, Fisker released the production version of the PEAR. The name literally means pear, but is actually an acronym for Personal Electric Automotive Revolution. The car is positioned as an all-electric compact SUV with a starting price of $30,000 in the United States.
From the appearance, the car adopts Fisker’s family-style design, equipped with LED split headlights, and the car logo and PEAR letters can be illuminated. The lower front of the car is decorated with a large area of black honeycomb mesh, combined with the complex blackened wheels and the maze pattern on the roof, which looks very sci-fi.
Viewed from the side, the roof slopes slightly down behind the B-pillar, which can reduce wind resistance. The design of the rear of the car is relatively unique, using a light ring design that surrounds the rear glass. It is worth noting that the car’s “Houdini” trunk is designed to slide down, making it easier to open the trunk and access items when the car is parked on narrow city streets.
Inside, the overall design of the car is very simple. The center console and steering wheel are bright blue and equipped with a screen, while some physical buttons are retained on the left side of the steering wheel. It is reported that the car has a digital transparent A-pillar function. The camera can capture the blind area blocked by the A-pillar when the vehicle turns and transmit the real-time image to the in-car display.
The car will be available in five-seat and six-seat versions, but the six-seat version does not have three rows of seats, but has tandem seats in the first row, which can seat three people side by side. It is worth mentioning that the car is equipped with the company’s new Cockpit computing system, which features a high-performance on-board computer called Blade. It can provide an ultra-high computing speed of 6.2 teraflops. For reference, each teraflop can perform one trillion floating point operations per second. The computer supports multiple functions such as 5G communications, in-vehicle Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet.
In terms of power, the car uses a pure electric drive with single-motor rear drive and dual-motor all-wheel drive options, but specific power parameters have not been announced. The car has two battery packs to choose from, with a range of 290km and 515km respectively.
