Fisker Claims Alaska Will Be The Ferrari Of Pickup Trucks

The rumored pickup truckFisker teased back in 2020is set to become an actual production model. Fisker CEO Henrik Fisker confirmed the development of the new EV model toAuto Express, saying, "Yes, we are going to do a pickup."

But things got more interesting when Fisker claimed his upcoming model, referred to as the "Alaska" program, would be the Ferrari of the segment. "If Ferrari were to do a pickup, this is what it'd be like," he told the publication. This means the Fisker Alaska will be developed to become the "sportiest of pickups."

From Fisker's statements, we can expect to see the EV startup'sdesign team come upwith a distinctive sporty-looking pickup. It could differ slightly from the rugged off-road appeal of EV pickup rivals such as theHummer EV, Ford F-150 Lightning, and Chevrolet Silverado EV.

Based on the initial teaser photos, the Fisker Alaska has apparent sharp character lines, exuding an aerodynamic look seen in sports cars. While we don't expect the Alaska to look as unconventional as theTesla Cybertruck, we are interested in how the Ferrari reference will pan out once the pickup comes out in the metal.
