Fisker Emotion

Looks awesome, better than the Model S. Not clear if this will come with solid state battery and 1 minute charging, or 150 mile range in 9 minutes or if that is coming later.

The Fisker Emotion comes in 2020 and looks great . But the Fisker Karma was crap .

Hey, thnx for the post-i was reading about CES and the cars presented. I do find Fisker's cars quite appealing. I would't mind trying one out on the tracks.

Feel like the rear end is what the new 8 series should have been lol

Exactly my thought.

A new Model S will likely be available. That thing's already been around 6-7 yrs now, it'll be due for a redesign soon.

Plus, Tesla has built up so much brand value. But I wish Fisker luck, this thing looks great.

The initial release of the vehicle in 2019 will be powered by a Lithium-ion battery and offer 400 miles of range. The solid state battery comes tentatively sometime next decade.

I must be looking at another car. Just as stupid and ugly as the Karma. Front end looks like a plastic tooth from a Star Wars toy. Wheels are absurdly oversized. Tails look cribbed from the new Vantage. Just overall bad design, which I think is Fisker's calling card.

I predict that Fisker will get a lot of money from deposits, churn out a few cars that don't hit any of his benchmarks, and then that this new company will go bankrupt.

That's what Henrik Fisker does.

Yes it was. I ran across a Fisker dealer back in the day, I had an E60 M5 at the time. The interior was a mess, covered in decent materials, but fit and finish were not good, ergonomics were terrible.

I know from 2 Karmas that caught fire in Belgium .
When I drive to my work ,sometimes I see a brown Karma .
The body design looks very special . But like I said above , it's crap !
