Fisker Automotive was a new automaker with a mission to build an innovative, eco-driven company that redefines and reshapes how the world thinks about cars. The company was leading the auto industry with its unique Electric Vehicle with extended range (EVer) powertrain technology, which combines the power and efficiency of electric drive with the range and freedom of a gasoline engine.
Fisker was established in Southern California in 2007 by top auto designer Henrik Fisker and business partner Bernhard Koehler. In 2008 Fisker unveiled the Karma, the world’s first luxury Electric Vehicle with extended range. On sale since December 2011 the Karma was delivered to the market in record time.
Fisker was headquartered in Anaheim, California and markets its products through a growing network of independent retailers around the world.
Wanxiang America received U.S. bankruptcy approval in 2014, to buy all the assets of Fisker Automotive.
The new brand, Karma Automotive will be presenting the first model of a new generation of Made-in-California automobiles in 2016.
