MKBHD reviews the Fisker Ocean electric SUV and concludes it is the worst car he has reviewed, going through its many problems. He warns viewers not to buy this version of the car.

Mostly cited in discussions of Fisker's troubles and of whether a negative review can sink a car company.

> None of these car reviewers ever take into account build quality and customer issues. Because most car reviewers' job is to explain new releases. Most issues arise after time, which reviewers generally don't get. MKBHD has gone into quality issues at times: see for example Cybertruck [1] and Fisker Ocean [2]. In their Q&A videos, the couple that does Motormouth [3] due mention reliability when asked for recommendations. There are sources for reliability assessments, like J. D. Power and Consumer Reports.

How does what you said jive with, for example, his review of the Humane AI Pin¹, where he reviewed the product so negatively that he received flak on social media for being too harsh and careless with his influence. Another video of his, a review of the Fisker Ocean², lead to accusations that he killed the company behind the car due to the negative review. ¹ MKBHD: The Worst Product I've Ever Reviewed...

Their cars recently significantly dropped in price, and it seems clear why [1]. Also got a bad review from MKBHD on YouTube, which can’t help[2] [1] link [2] ▶ this video

It's a 20min video and a little over half of it is everything that's bad, so it's too long to summarize. Watch it yourself: ▶ this video 8:10 onwards. Most of them could be fixed by software, though the problem with the steering buttons being too close to the hand grip (14:11) may not be?
