Thanks for taking the time to compile all the details. Loved it, liked it, already a subscriber. Impressed with your efforts to answer all the question. You would have done a great job running this company in Engineering, PR and Service

[rightbackagain]

You really do an outstanding job every time!
Ocean Ultra owner here from Central Massachusetts. I always look forward to you next video…✅🚙

Appreciate the thorough review with video documenting each item. Keep the videos coming🔥🌊

[martinmikulik-geyh]

Great Job! Thanks a lot for the information and all the insights you give us on the car. What I personally miss most is adaptive cruise and preconditioning of the car (especially as winter is coming). I hope that sometimes in the future these features will become implemented.

[vikasd.]

Thanks for the detailed review! Still waiting for 2.2. Only other things I hope gets delivered is Adaptive cruise and additional Keyfobs/card.

First, your videos are the best. Great job! The Secret Engr menu can still be accessed with 2.2. I discovered this by accident when waking from deep sleep and the Central screen was still booting up. I was working out some air bubbles on the lower left side about 3" from the bottom and 3" from left side using single finger pushing air bubbles from screen protector out to the left. I'll play with it tomorrow and see if I can get it to repeat.

A really thorough review of the 2.2 update, great work 👍💪

[DaveDarin]

My experience with my BMW i3. The miles available change pretty dramatically. I can see as many as 190 miles available at 100% if my previous trips were all highway going at 65 mph on a pretty flat terrain highway. If I am driving around locally in my city I can see as low as 140. That actually makes sense as the same happens in our ICE car. So, that is not surprising, in fact I like the more realistic reading.

[DaveDarin]

Regarding 2.2 being the last update. At least there will be less stress and worry about being sure to take the preparation steps needed. One major regret is the lack of one petal driving and adaptive cruise control.

[jkywang]

Again, you are always ahead of the curve. I will still be very happy to get the twelve you like and live with the twelve you don’t like. Bottom line, no 2.1 update yet and holding my breath for this 2.2 before I want to take a long trip.😢

[jeffreymills]

Upsetting to hear about only one of your doggie windows working now... hopefully that will somehow fix itself in the future. Thanks for the video

[tonyn]

Man I'm glad I didn't accept this car when they contacted me back in February, had feeling something was happening, I did loose my $250 order fee.

[DaveDarin]

Liked and I have been a subscriber. Always nicely done.

[christianhinkel]

Frankly I'm afraid to try to update my maps. 2.2 finally fixed my navigation, it works now after basically never having worked before in my car. I'm afraid that if I disturb it too much it'll brick my GPS again

[BremboT]

That regen disruption happens in all EVs momentarily. Notice it in my Bolt and Model 3. Shouldn't say all, but those 2 I mentioned.

[rmorales]

So as one of the early 2.2 testers are you providing feedback to Fisker about how 2.2 is working or not? If so will they be making anymore adjustments to 2.2? Boomer about the Solar Sky %age going away. I enjoyed seeing my %age, especially when I would hit 100% which I have only seen about 2 times. Let’s hope FOA in the future can work w/a third party to get us future software updates. Do you know if torque vectoring works on our cars? What about battery pre-conditioning when you take long trips? I haven’t been able how to figure how to set up seat/side mirror settings. Is this something that is functional or not on our cars. It’s a minor inconvenience when my wife and I are constantly manually readjusting the steering wheel, seats and side mirrors every time one of us is getting in the car after the other has driven it.

[theautomotiveenthusiast]

Remember when the Ocean was originally rated at 350 miles in One/Extreme trim and 340 miles in Ultra trim? They increased figures by about 10 miles. Do you think they're just using the Lower 340 miles as the base unit of measurement now?

[mikeobrien]

Love your videos, your the man! My wife used my car over the weekend and adjusted the rear view mirror. Now it’s broke. Loose as hell and pointing down at seats.
Anyone else? Any ideas on how to fix?

[DMan-OceanOne]

Probably a good idea when I have the car in for recall work to have 2.2 installed and then Cali can be tweaked, if needed.

Something to test / investigate: When you are hooked up to a L2 charger, and it's programmed to start offering charge at some time in the middle of the night, does the vehicle accept the charge? I found that my Fisker would ignore the charge being offered until an hour or two later, and I always wondered if that coincided to the times when the car partially awakens to charge the 12v battery? So if it's doing that even less frequently now, does that mean a potential longer delay before the car accepts a charge that is being offered?

Seems like the car needs to be awake or partially awake to accept a charge. Curious what your experience has been, and if you noticed any difference with 2.2?
