And Fisker already went toes-up once before.... 😬
They have a partnership with Magna and Foxconn which pretty strong companies. This miserable stock market/economic situation is just making it miserable for everyone. Musk's price war might backfire on him as early adopters felt ripped off by the lower pricing. Who knows who will return to buy a newer model? My feeling is that Lucid will be the one to fall as they didn't release an SUV/pickup at first.And Fisker already went toes-up once before.... 😬

If them "being onboard" means them actually doing what they promise, it's probably a good thing. If it means "they've promised to build production and design facilities in exchange for tax incentive" expect the fruition to actually be them buying a lot of land, getting other companies to decide not to compete in the product space they announce, getting the President to show up for a groundbreaking ceremony, taking the tax benefit, then de facto abandoning the unbuilt and making the stuff in China anyway, then it's not.
