Interesting article about the Lordstown plant from last year. I think they are supposed to start building Fiskars there.

There was also late last year the electric vehicle manufacturer Canoo folded and filed bankruptcy, and electric semi truck builder Nikola also just folded.

Here's how Fisker was doing a month after that article came out:

So, it sounds like, Canoo, Lordstown, Elio, Arcimoto, Nikola and Fisker can all set up shop at the old Lordstown plant and set up a business together. Fisker needs to head it up as they went bankrupt twice, so they are experts at raising money and then watching their business go down the toilet. With the other 5 businesses, they might be able to create a company that can raise more than anyone and crash harder than anyone. No reason why they couldn't set up a reality show of it happening.
