TL;DR
113 kWh battery, 11-hour AC charge, 580 km range, 20-80% in 35 min (200 kW DC) DC fast charging. Home charging covers 80–90% of all energy; fast charging covers the rest.
Owners ask three questions about Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean charging: how long, how much, and how often. The answers are well-defined — 11 hours for a full AC top-up of the 113 kWh pack, a small per-kWh cost depending on tariff, and as little or as much as your 580 km daily range demands. We go through each in detail.
Home charging the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean
Home charging for the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean is what makes the overall maths work out. The Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean accepts standard AC at home and completes a full empty-to-full cycle in roughly 11 hours. For the typical owner, that translates to plugging in around 30% remaining at night and waking up to a full battery. Per-km charging cost on a standard residential tariff comes out far below an equivalent petrol car, and on off-peak time-of-use plans the gap widens further. Set the daily ceiling to 80% — that single discipline keeps the 113 kWh battery healthier for longer.
Fast charging the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean
When you need to add range fast, the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean is set up for the DC charging network — within the limits of its onboard architecture. The Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean supports DC fast charging with a typical session profile of 20-80% in 35 min (200 kW DC), which is what you'll use on road trips and the occasional bad-planning day. Plan long trips around natural stops — coffee, lunch, restroom — so the charge happens in parallel with something you'd do anyway. 580 km of range plus one DC stop is enough for almost any single-day journey within the country.
Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean battery longevity
Battery health on the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean is largely about your daily routine, not big interventions. Avoid leaving the 113 kWh pack at very low or very high state of charge for long periods.

Frequently asked questions
- Can I top up the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean at work or public AC chargers?
- Yes — the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean's onboard AC charger accepts standard public Type-2 connections. Top-ups are slower than home wall boxes but useful for adding range during a long workday or shopping trip.
- How far can the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean go on a full charge?
- Officially 580 km. In real-world mixed use, expect 80–90% of that figure — closer in city driving, lower on sustained highway speeds. For a daily commute most owners only use 20–40% of capacity.
- Does fast charging damage the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean's battery?
- Occasional fast charging is fine — battery management systems are designed for it. Daily fast charging accelerates degradation. The rule of thumb: AC at home for routine, DC on the road for distance.
- Can I charge the Fisker Inc. (defunct) Ocean from a standard home socket?
- Yes, with the supplied portable cable. It works, but it is slow and warms the socket — fine for occasional use, not a long-term plan. A dedicated wall box is the right answer for ongoing ownership.
