The Fisker Karma is a hybrid electric vehicle manufactured marketed by Fisker Automotive since 2011.
Unlike larger manufacturers that strive to make their hybrid models more affordable, Fisker produces high-end vehicles starting at $100,000 USD.
They are, in a sense, supercars in the world of hybrids.
Brief description of the Fisker Karma EcoSport
The company’s founder, designer Henrik Fisker, previously participated in the creation of the BMW Z8, Aston Martin DB9, and V8 Vantage.
He personally designed the Karma’s body design, combining retro and modern elements, and this design shows a connection to his previous works.
The hybrid system, installed on an aluminum space frame, allows you to travel 80 km on a single charge of the lithium-ion battery, using only electric motors.
A 2-liter inline 4-cylinder turbocharged General Motors engine with 255 hp starts when necessary and drives a generator to recharge the battery. In this mode, the maximum range without refueling is 480.0 km.
At the same time, the car has outstanding technical characteristics: the torque reaches 1,298.4 Nm, the acceleration time to 100 km/h is only 5.9 seconds, and the maximum speed is limited to 200 km/h.
The Karma’s interior is designed in a luxurious style, atypical for hybrids.
The first copy of this car went to actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
