Four doors, top of the heap, cream of the crop

2010 Fisker Karma

This car is going to be an oddly exclusive ride. Despite a projected annual production run of approximately 15,000 units, the Karma comes much closer to the true definition of exclusive thanks to the plug-in’s first-to-market status, relatively affordable $80,000 base price, lithium ion battery technology, full-electric range of 50 miles and a gas/electric fuel economy rating of 100 mpg. That kind of exclusivity will be available from Fisker in late 2009.
