California Fisker Karma Dealership Ready to Debut the Latest in Plug-in Hybrids

Fisker of Orange County, a California Fisker Karma dealership, is excited to promote the Fisker Karma: a plug-in luxury hybrid that has become one of the most talked-about cars of 2011.

Irvine, CA -- (SBWire) -- 05/02/2011 -- Fisker Of Orange County, a California Fisker Karma dealership, is excited to announce the many features of the 2011 Fisker Karma. The Fisker Karma is luxury plug-in hybrid that uses the latest technology to create the best fuel economy possible. The Karma can go 50 miles on pure electricity without using a single drop of gasoline. Since most Americans drive less than 50 miles in their daily routine, the gasoline engine would only be needed for long trips. After 50 miles, it operates with the same efficiency as a regular hybrid car.

The most surprising thing about the Fisker Karma is that it both looks and feels like a sports car. The company’s creator and chief designer Henrik Fisker is a world-renowned automotive designer who has previously made cars for BMW and Aston Martin. The Fisker Karma bears the same style as those titans of luxury cars, but with the plug-in capabilities that make it a very attractive vehicle with today’s rising gas prices.

Fisker Karma Hits California

The technology behind the Karma’s engine is known as the Q Drive, developed by Quantum Technologies exclusively for Fisker Automotive. The Karma’s Q Drive configuration consists of a small gasoline engine that turns the generator, which charges the lithium ion battery pack, powering the electric motor and turning the rear wheels.

The Fisker Karma offers partly self-contained climate control, as California Fisker Karma drivers will have the option to purchase a full-length solar roof that will help charge the car and provide cooling for the interior cabin while the car is parked. Additionally, Fisker Automotive will offer drivers an option to purchase a set of solar panels for their roofs or garages where they can generate electricity during the day to charge the car overnight, all without an emissions whatsoever.

The interior contains what Fisker is calling “Eco-chic.” The wooden highlights come from wood that has been salvaged from forest fires or floods. No living trees were used in the interior’s construction. The leather upholstery uses 85% of the animal hide, retaining all the imperfections that are normally removed (and wasted) in the leather--making process.
