The agreement, the first multi-vehicle reservation for Fisker in the UK market, supports the delivery of up to 700 vehicles in 2023. Onto will not only be Fisker’s first customer in the UK, but also the exclusive rental/subscription partner for 2023.
Onto, founded in 2017, is an innovative technology-driven enterprise that provides easy access to electric vehicles through their all-inclusive subscription service. Through a monthly subscription, customers get the latest EVs with insurance, public charging and servicing all included. With an active fleet of more than 3000 vehicles in operation with both private and business customers across the UK, Onto has pioneered new ways to enable drivers to access electric vehicles without the need for lengthy lease contracts.
