TuneIn announces a new partnership deal with Fisker, a creator of sustainable electric vehicles and advanced mobility solutions, to provide streaming audio content to all who purchase their electric vehicles. A challenge for many EVs is the radio interference that their powerful batteries cause. TuneIn integration negates this challenge by streaming live radio and other audio content from around the world directly into EVs without battery-caused signal interference.

Highlights of the deal include:

• TuneIn's app is pre-installed in the Fisker Ocean all-electric SUV.

• First-year Fisker drivers will receive a six-month free trial of TuneIn's Premium subscription. With the Premium service, Fisker drivers will have access to live NHL, college sports programming and over 20 commercial-free music channels.

• Top-tier news networks, including ESPN Radio, MSNBC, CNBC, Bloomberg and Fox News Radio without advertising interruptions.

"Fisker's environmental and sustainable approach to the EV market captures that next-level excitement of what the future of the driving experience can be, a beacon to the entire industry, and one we are proud to be a part of," said TuneIn CEO Richard Stern. "TuneIn's commitment to revolutionizing streaming audio for the EV generation can be seen in how seamlessly our platform can be integrated into Fisker's cutting-edge infotainment system."

"At Fisker, we are designing the world's most sustainable vehicles and providing our customers with the level of technology that they are increasingly going to demand in the 21st century," added Fisker Inc. Chairman and CEO Henrik Fisker. "A centerpiece of the all-electric Fisker Ocean SUV is a 17.1-inch rotating touchscreen that creates a spectacular environment for customers to enjoy TuneIn's market-leading content offerings, which we are delighted to deliver to our owners in both North America and Europe."
