TEASED! Henrik Fisker Provides Us With Just A GLIMPSE Of His Latest Vehicle — Due For REVEAL Next Year

Henrik Fisker hasn't always had tremendous success. It seems like one of the best automotive designers' career is starting to prove a bit too difficult.

While Fisker has planted a flag in automotive history for his legendary design work, he seems to have trouble as a manufacturer. THINK: Remember his coach-built creations that were based of the BMW 6-Series and Mercedes-Benz SL-Class? Or, how about the latest Karma, which was exceedingly gorgeous but did not translate into putting asses in the seat.

Now the Karma is going to have a Fisker successor. Though the car company's name has changed, the product will still be a follow up to the not-so-loved Karma.

Can you tell?

As of now little information is known. Rumors suggest it will obtain 400 miles of electric driving on a single charge. What we do know is that the latest Fisker will receive dihedral doors that open up in the rear. According to Fisker it will help make ingress and egress easier for passengers.

I'd definitely rather be driving a Fisker Karma over a Tesla S for style, but I suspect Tesla would have the edge in engineering.

Have you been inside a Karma or driven it? It's the most claustrophobic, and least practical vehicle of its size that has ever been conceived. It is slow and heavy, has low visibility and impossible to drive on narrow twisty roads. Yes, it does look good, but if that is all you care about, get a poster of it, it would be much cheaper :)

@vdiv If you paid attention to what I said....

To translate for you: The Karma is quite attractive, but not well engineered.

With Fisker - two guarantees - 1. relevant and exquisite styling, 2. company will fail.
