Fisker Latigo CS

The Latigo CS is by far the nicest ride to come from Fisker team, and that is saying a lot! This machine was designed by Henrik Fisker who has been modding supercars since the day he could walk. The guys at Fisker wanted to keep a clean look with the car but with a fire breathing dragon of an engine under the hood. The great thing about this ride is that you know there are not many rolling through your neighborhood. With a price tag of $249,500 I might just need to sell off my body parts just to make the down payment. Every line, curve and detail put into this modified BMW 645ci could not have been done any better! To say the use of leather inside the Latigo is generous, is an understatement. The dash, the the seats, the doors, the steering wheel and every other surface has been wrapped in a hide so thick, it would offend any vegan within a 10 mile radius.

This Latigo sits comfortably on a set of some serious rubber. A 10 spoke, original rim design measuring upto 20 inches is wrapped around Michelin Pilots Sport PS2 rubber which sticks to the road they were doused in super glue. The wheels are actually the only Fisker product that can be purchased seperatly from the coachbuilding packages and retail for $1465 each.

Under the carbon fiber hood of the Latigo CS sits a modest BMW 645 powerplant with the 650 and M6 versions most likely out as you read this article. The Fisker team claims that the M6 Latigo will produce a final horsepower number of 620HP! Fisker could not be more proud of this creation and claim the Latigo CS to be the best handling, fastest four-seater production car in the entire world!

Fisker Karma

The Fisker Karma is a plug-in hybrid luxury sports car revealed on 14 January 2008 and manufactured by Fisker Automotive,[ a joint venture of Quantum Technologies[2] and Fisker Coachbuild, LLC, announced September 5, 2007. The Karma was introduced at the 2008 North American International Auto Show.

The PHEV-50, 50 miles (80 km) all-electric range, is anticipated in late 2009 to sell for US$ 80,000.

The Fisker Karma is the first vehicle released by the Fisker Automotive Company. The Karma features Q-Drive technology, powered by an innovative plug-in hybrid gasoline/electric motors. Q-Drive is a series hybrid meaning that the engine is mated to a generator to provide electric connection to the electric motor.

These solar cells collect energy to aide in cooling the vehicle’s lithium ion batteries as well as donate an extra boost to the Q-drive system. Although Fisker Automotive has yet to release solid statistics regarding Karma’s fuel economy, the company estimates the average driver will only have to refill the gas tank annually provided they do not drive more than 50 miles per day.
