MUNICH, May 17 (Reuters) - Fisker is exploring collaboration with other companies to scale up market share faster, its Chief Executive Henrik Fisker said on Wednesday.

"Buyers aren't loyal anymore to their traditional brands. That changes everything. If we collaborate with someone, you can scale quicker ... it could be with suppliers, other car companies, tech companies - we are exploring all these avenues," Fisker said, speaking at the Reuters Automotive Conference in Munich.

The company was not going to use mega-castings, popularised by Tesla, in its low-cost models, Fisker said, because of the risk of needing to throw the vehicle out in the event of an accident. (Reporting by Joseph White, Victoria Waldersee, Editing by Friederike Heine)
