Outsourcing production sounds great conceptually; "It's great! Production issues are someone elses problem now!" Until you realize that producing EVs is hard and when there are problems you now have many layers of management between your customer services and the people who can actually fix the problem.

People bitch and complain about Tesla all the time, but their vertical integration means that they can fix problems with their cars relatively quickly.

I think this is why Fisker failed. Twice.
