Fisker Inc. is set to report its Q4 2023 earnings after markets close on Thursday. The electric vehicle startup is currently facing a number of challenges, such as a low stock price, missed targets, a pivot to franchised dealers, and negative reviews of the Fisker Ocean.
Fisker’s stock price has fallen sharply, dipping below $1 per share last month. As of Tuesday’s close, Fisker stock is down nearly 60% year-to-date. The Fisker Ocean, which is being delivered to consumers today, has also been received negatively by some auto reviewers. Fisker announced a shift to franchised dealers as well, and the company missed its targets for the Ocean last year.
Fisker shareholders have submitted a number of questions for the company’s earnings call to investor communication platform Say. Some of the questions highlighted concerns about the company, especially with regard to its financial stability and share price.
The following are the ten most voted questions with the most votes that Fisker investors have submitted for the company’s Q4 2023 earnings call.
- We’re in decline. What is Fisker’s next step to improve shareholder value, and how many new dealers does Fisker actually think it’s gonna gain with their dealer network?
- Why should I still invest in Fisker? Does this company still have a chance at surviving after dropping below $1? What are you doing to improve your company?
- The stock price being this low doesn’t give potential customers confidence that this is a brand that will stick around much longer. What are your plans to address the current stock price?
- Auto Focus, a well-followed channel, gave the Ocean a horrible review that showed a lot of flaws with Fisker. At 4M views, I feel like FSR stocks were sold off due to this particular review of the car. How will you be fixing these key issues mentioned in the video?
- Have there been any serious merger discussions with larger automakers?
- Open communication and transparency have been an ongoing issue with the company. Delays in earnings, technical specifications, manufacturer partnerships, & dates. What is the company doing to establish better confidence in Fisker’s leadership and partnerships with chosen vendors?
- When will management take into consideration the high level of naked short selling of its stock? And what is Fisker going or doing about it?
- Fisker has missed its guidance/targets and the recent 10Q miss set off a cascading event with the notes and now we have an “Out of Compliance Letter” from the NYSE all stemming from Fisker’s own mismanagement. What concrete steps are being taken to rebuild trust and hit targets?
- What’s your plan of action to regain shareholders’ confidence? What’s your production plan?
- The stock price is in free fall. What is management doing to restore confidence and compliance? Any short-term or long-term plans?
Fisker is expected to report its fourth quarter and full year 2023 financial results after market close on Thursday, February 29, 2024. The release will be followed by a conference call at 2:00 p.m. PT (5:00 p.m. ET). Fisker CEO Henrik Fisker, CTO David King, and CFO Dr. Geeta Gupta-Fisker are expected to be in attendance at the earnings call.

Tesla Cybercab sightings are broadening far and wide, well outside of downtown Austin, Texas, with autonomy in focus as the company plans to launch the all-electric, two-seater this evening in the Lone Star State.
Tesla is set to launch Cybercab to a small group of people this evening in a dedicated event in Austin, Texas. Public details on the event are relatively slim.
However, Tesla’s focus on Cybercab falls well outside of the downtown Austin area and is expanding well across the United States as things continue to move quickly with the company’s autonomous efforts in 2026. Today, various images of Cybercab fleets in interesting locations have started to circulate.
The most notable is a fleet of at least 20 Cybercabs at Miami International Airport in Florida. Spotted last night, the fleet is expansive and is indicative of a looming release of Cybercabs once regulatory boxes are checked off.
Tesla has already been operating the Robotaxi platform in Miami for several months, but this Cybercab fleet at the airport could be joining the ride-hailing platform as approvals arrive:

Another fleet of Cybercabs was spotted at the Devon, PA showroom just outside of Philadelphia. We have seen several Cybercab units testing around the Philadelphia Metro Area, which is interesting considering Tesla does not have any active Robotaxi geofence in Pennsylvania.

Philadelphia would be an ideal location to test ride-hailing due to its dense tourist population, large, sprawling city layout, and to compete with other ride-hailing companies that operate in the city.
Expansive fleets of Cybercabs will be popping up in and around major cities throughout the rest of the year, if we were betting on it. Tesla has made it obvious that the Cybercab rollout will be aggressive and fast-paced, but within reason. Tesla is still prioritizing safety, so these testing phases will likely go on for some period of time before more members of the public are able to snag a Cybercab for a personal chariot.
The Tesla Model Y L is arguably the most hyped trim of the all-electric crossover, other than the Performance configuration that comes with white-knuckle speed and sports car-level handling.
However, it is not all perfect. Tesla owners in China who took delivery of the Model Y L, denoted with an L to highlight its longer wheelbase, are experiencing what they are referring to as “collapsing” of the rear wheels, as suspension issues appear to be an issue with some of the builds.
🚨 Model Y L owners in China report rear suspension sag
• Six-seat long-wheelbase Y. Shanghai. On sale since August 2025
• Owners say the rear tire-to-arch gap shrinks after mileage or a full load. Some cases after about 9,000 km loaded. Others near 30,000 km
• Tesla service… pic.twitter.com/Lr6i5Tbi07— Joe Hansen (@joehansen) September 1, 2026
The gap between the wheel arch and tire has narrowed to the point that “not even a single finger” could fit, according to a report from Car News China. The failures are not tied to a specific mileage, as one owner said that after just 9,000 kilometers (5,600 miles), they noticed the suspension issue when their car was fully loaded.
Another one had the issue at 30,000 kilometers (18,640 miles) and noticed that the wheel gap shrank to two fingers, so not as drastic as the person who reported a similar issue at 9,000 km.

Along with the visual recognition of the issue, others are saying the sagging is causing abnormal wear on the inside of the tires. Extra weight and instant torque already provide additional stress on the tires in electric vehicles during normal operation, so it is no surprise that this is another complaint.
There has been no recall issued by Tesla, and the company has not yet publicly acknowledged the issue.
Some are suggesting that owners use a “finger test” to self-diagnose whether there is an issue with the suspension. There should be four fingers between the tire and the wheel well; anything less than that starts to get dicey.
Tesla is starting to truly tease and hype its groundbreaking Cybercab event, which takes place tomorrow in Austin, Texas. It will be the first time members of the public will be able to ride in a Cybercab, a vehicle without any manual controls, on public roads.
Tesla has been dropping some hype on X over the past several days, but this morning, the excitement has truly started to build up for the event. Although Cybercab has been unveiled before, this is truly Tesla’s announcement that it is ready to start offering autonomous rides for public passengers in its new ride-hailing-geared vehicle for the first time.
The hype has started with a variety of different social media posts that are a true indication that Tesla is preparing for something big. Teasing so much of the potential of Cybercab, including its ability to truly revolutionize how people hail rides for local travel, is what the big idea for the event entails. The time that many Tesla owners, fans, and investors have been waiting for is potentially here:

The event has remained slim on details. Even invitees are still awaiting true details about what the event will entail, where they’ll go, and what is in store for the evening. This is pretty typical for an event run by Tesla; they keep things under wraps for the most part until the very last minute.
However, there is no secret about what the real intention of Tesla is for this event: it is going to be a huge reveal party for a vehicle that has no steering wheel and no pedals. It is a truly massive step for the company moving forward.

Speculation persists as to whether this is going to be an event that simply announces that rides will begin with the Cybercab, or it will be something more substantial. Tesla has said in the past that they plan to sell the Cybercab to the general public in what could become a great way to earn passive income by adding it to a more global fleet of Robotaxi-geared vehicles.
Tomorrow, the show begins in Austin, and the Cybercab goes live at some capacity; we just don’t know exactly how quite yet.
