Fisker Karma Has A Starting Price Of $87,900
December 3, 2008 by admin
Here is a low-resolution peek at the Fisker ahead of an official reveal at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show. Again we see the production car is almost identical to the concept car, except the grille is revised for a much sexier look.
The price has been changed upwards from the original $80,000 to around $87,900 but along with the price we get specs. The Karma will get not one, but two electric motors as part of its “Q-drive” powertain system, and they augment a 265 HP GM Ecotec turbocharged four cylinder for a grand total of 408 HP and 959 lb-ft of torque. In full sport mode that car will scoot from zero to 60 MPH in only 5.8 seconds, top speed is pegged at 125 MPH. Switch it down to miser mode and you can go 50 miles in all electric mode, drawing power from the lithium-ion battery pack.
Production is planned for 15,000 cars a year when the line gets rolling, but don’t get too excited, it’s already sold out until mid-2010. We’ll bring you more details as they emerge, but keep it tuned here for the latest.
