Fisker Karma wins AutoTest/Autobild E-Car Award

The Fisker Karma has been voted the ‘Best EV with a Range Extender’ in the AutoTest/Autobild E-Car Awards in Germany. The award recognizes strengths of Fisker’s groundbreaking EVer powertrain and the flexibility of real-world range it offers Karma customers. It is the latest in a string of international awards that Fisker Automotive is proud to have won since the launch of the Karma.

Anaheim, CA – June 7, 2012: Fisker Automotive is joining forces with Penske Automotive Group, a leading international auto retailer, to market and service Fisker cars in Arizona and the surrounding region.

Penske Automotive Group (NYSE: PAG, www.penskeautomotive.com), a subsidiary of the Penske Corporation founded and chaired by Roger Penske, will operate the new franchise outlet: Fisker of Scottsdale (www.fiskerscottsdale.com).

The addition of the new Arizona outlet will bring to 80 the number of independent retail locations in the US, Canada and Europe serving Fisker (www.fiskerautomotive.com). Of that total, Fisker’s award-winning Karma model is sold through 48 outlets in North America alone, and will soon be distributed for the first time in China and the Middle East following new retail agreements in both regions.

Fisker executives welcomed the partnership with Penske, a proven and well-resourced auto retail group with 336 retail automotive franchises representing 42 different brands and 29 collision repair centers.

“Penske Automotive Group is one of the most respected and successful auto retail companies in the world,” said Matthew Malfitano, Director of North American Operations at Fisker Automotive. “Their support speaks volumes about Fisker’s market potential. Fisker is proud to be part of the Penske team and we look forward to a fruitful relationship.”

Dave Wallace, Penske Area Vice President, said, “Penske Automotive Group is excited to have Fisker of Arizona as the exclusive Fisker retailer in the region. Our research shows there is strong demand for clean, energy-efficient luxury cars. Fisker will make a fine addition to Penske’s portfolio of premium brands.”

Fisker Automotive created the luxury EV segment with the Karma, the world’s first luxury Electric Vehicle with extended range (EVer^™). The Karma’s unique EVer^™ powertrain combines the power and efficiency of a pure electric car with the range and freedom of a traditional car, giving drivers the option to either plug-in or fill-up.

As well as having 403 horsepower and nearly 1,000 lb/ft of torque, the dramatically styled Karma sedan also gets more than twice the economy (54 MPGe) and creates about half the emissions (169g CO₂/mi) of competitive luxury cars, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). U.S. pricing starts at $103,000, not including a $7,500 federal income tax credit and other local incentives.

The Fisker Karma was namedLuxury Car of the Yearby Top Gear magazine, and Automobile magazine’s Design of the Year.It was also one of TIME magazine’s 50 Best Inventions of 2011, and received a silver Edison Award for innovation.

Fisker appeals to eco-minded luxury buyers by offering cars with a unique blend of world-class design and performance, industry-leading economy and the lowest emissions of nearly any production car. Dramatic lines inspired by nature, the world’s largest and most powerful solar glass panel roof on a car and 22-inch wheels distinguish the Fisker Karma from anything else on the road. In line with Fisker’s eco-conscious brand values, the Karma can be driven emission-free, features reclaimed wood trim, and is available with high-grade textile upholstery made from recycled materials.

The Fisker of Scottsdale showroom is located at 6855 East McDowell in Scottsdale, Arizona (Phone +1 480-421-7300).

Anaheim, CA – May 29, 2012: Fisker Automotive today published its first business update by announcing that revenues had exceeded $100 million in the first four months of 2012.The company, which began deliveries of the Fisker Karma luxury four-door electric sedan in December 2011, also revealed that it has delivered 1000 vehicles to customers in the US and Europe.

Tom LaSorda, Chief Executive Officer of Fisker Automotive, said: “We are encouraged by solid demand for the Karma, our unique extended-range luxury model. Pending completion of investment sourcing, we are poised to press ahead with further market expansion and development of our higher volume model, the Fisker Atlantic.”

In the first few months of 2012, Fisker has continued to raise private equity investment to fund its expansion plans, securing $174 million of additional private financing since the start of the year. The latest funding has lifted the overall financing beyond $1 billion since the start of the company in 2007.

Fisker has also become the first manufacturer to launch vehicles under the Federal Government’s Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing (ATVM) program.

Henrik Fisker, Executive Chairman of the company, said: “There is great confidence from the investment community, our customers and the media in what we have achieved in bringing such a beautiful and innovative car to the marketplace in record time.

“Treading a new path in any industry is never easy, but we have set out to re-define and re-shape the way the world thinks about cars, and I am proud of what the Fisker team has achieved so far.”

He was commenting amid positive feedback from customers and dealers about the quality and performance of Fisker’s flagship model, the Karma – the world’s first luxury four-door electric vehicle.

Strong customer demand for the Karma has continued internationally. In the Netherlands, considered one of the most competitive markets for premium vehicles, the Karma ranked second in volume to the Porsche Panamera in the segment for four-door luxury sedans (of all powertrain types) in the January-April, 2012 period.

Success in such markets is expected to continue with further expansion into new territories, including the Middle East. Earlier this month, Fisker signed an exclusive agreement with the Al-Futtaim Group, one of the Middle East’s most experienced automotive distributors, to build Fisker’s sales presence in fast-growing markets for performance and luxury cars. Al-Futtaim and its network of experienced retailers will allow Fisker to reach customers in the U.A.E, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain, and Egypt.

Anaheim, CA – May 11, 2012: Fisker Automotive has noted unfounded allegations, reported in the media, about the engine compartment layout of its Karma model.

The manufacturer of the world's first extended range luxury electric vehicle has received full technical and safety certification for all systems developed and installed in the Karma.

That certification followed extreme testing of the vehicle, involving laboratory simulations of thermal incidents and on-the-road tests in extreme climate conditions.

No incidents of any kind involving engine systems were found.


Paul Boskovitch, Director of Powertrain & Engineering of Fisker Automotive, said: "Our technologies and engine design have been fully tested and certified at the highest level. It is irresponsible and ill-informed for technology pundits to suggest otherwise in order to secure media attention for unfounded claims."

Background: The Karma under-hood thermal environment was designed using the latest Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software packages. Evaluations of the results were performed both by the Fisker Thermal team and external consultants.

Testing involved thorough road and lab exercises, including multiple hot weather trips over thousands of miles of incident-free operation in Death Valley and Palm Springs, CA. Additional testing was also performed successfully at maximum and sustained speeds (125mph/201km/hr) on the Autobahn in Germany.

In addition to road-use testing, further wind tunnel testing was completed at test Labs in the USA. These tests were run specifically to simulate the most difficult of conditions, those observed in the Middle East (GCC) and Africa.

Testing for these hot weather conditions was run according to the manufacturer’s engine specifications for the 2-liter Ecotec engine installed in the Karma. The attached Table shows the conditions for typical vehicle tests by region. As indicated, the tests adopted for the Fisker Karma were conducted under the most stringent applications for the Middle East & Africa.

The Fisker Karma passed all tests without incident.

Cooling algorithms have been developed to ensure that at power off and under certain conditions the vehicle cooling fan maintains circulation in the engine compartment in order to remove any excess heat.

Packaging of the engine and surrounding components has been done within competitive benchmark standards and heat protection sleeves are placed on and around all hoses in or near high heat zones. All exhaust components have properly engineered heat shields and maintain the recommended separation distance between the shield, shielded components and affected components.

Fisker is using DEX-COOL 50/50 coolant with a zero flammability rating, according to the Chevron Manufacturers Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) #10445. This means that under no conditions is this material flammable.

The brake system booster which contains the brake system fluid is in a protected region behind the fender on the “cold” side of the engine. The power steering pump and fluid are also located on the “cold” side of the engine, near the front of the vehicle.
All materials used in the underhood environment are rated for use in the engine compartment and are either non-flammable or flame-retardant. Operation of the engine on-cycle has been thoroughly explained in public literature and utilizes a load-following operation. During this operation acceleration events are augmented by the battery and the engine operates along the load curves at or less than would be observed during operation in its original design application. In the Karma application the engine is never required to operate beyond 3500 RPM with a maximum output capability of 128 kW at this operating point. Well below the rated power of this engine with a maximum output power of 194 kW.

The Fisker Karma is an advanced technology vehicle and utilizes a control strategy that focuses on fuel efficiency as well as thermal and energy management. The engine power required at 125 mph (top speed) is less than 115 kW, well below the maximum capability of the engine for continuous operation. In addition the engine controls maintain a thermal watch of the engine and at a temperature of 117C begins to limit power in order to maintain coolant temperature below this point. This is well below the engine manufacturer’s recommended maximum temperature rating of 127C.

Anaheim, California USA – May 1, 2012: The Fisker Karma luxury plug-in hybrid has received two more awards recognizing its leading-edge design, advanced technology, and environmental credentials.Last week, the Karma received a First Prize in the International Design Awards (IDA) competition and a silver trophy for innovation at the Edison Awards. These latest accolades add to the growing number of awards that Fisker Automotive (www.fiskerautomotive.com) is proud to have won during the Karma’s debut year.

International Design Awards

The International Design Awards (IDA) exist to celebrate the world's most visionary design, discover new and emerging talent, and promote the appreciation of design worldwide. This year the judging panel of international experts awarded First Prize in the Transportation Competition to the Fisker Karma.

Architects and designers of interiors, high-end fashion luxury products, and graphics submitted entries from more than 65 countries throughout the world. Judging was a rigorous process, with winners to be recognized in print in the prestigious 2013 International Design Awards Book of Designs.

“As a car designer, there’s nothing like having your work recognized and appreciated by other people in different disciplines of the same industry,” said Fisker co-founder and executive design director Henrik Fisker. “We are honored to have the IDA recognize and endorse the sleek and bold design of the Fisker Karma.”

Edison Awards

This year’s Edison Awards celebrated its 25th anniversary of honoring the best in innovation and excellence in the development of new products and services, so it was particularly special that Fisker Automotive was voted a silver winner for its Karma luxury plug-in hybrid vehicle.

An Edison Award is one of the highest accolades a company can receive in the name of innovation and business. Fisker joined hundreds of senior executives from some of the world’s most recognized companies at a ceremony in New York to acknowledge the hard work and commitment of all of the 2012 Edison Award winners.

We are honored to present Fisker Automotive with an Edison Award as one of the leading innovators of today and tomorrow.”

“I had the privilege to directly experience the elegance, luxury, and power of the Edison Award-winning 2012 Fisker Karma in New York City. I've never seen so many heads turned from pedestrians and other drivers as the Fisker Karma drove past them,” he added.

Tom LaSorda, Fisker’s CEO said, “Fisker Automotive is an emerging company driven by American innovation. That’s why we think it’s great that the Karma’s bold and disruptive approach has been recognized with an Edison Award, which is often reserved for larger corporations.”

Alongside these latest two awards, in the last few months the Fisker Karma was also named BBC Top Gear’s Luxury Car of the Year - the first American car ever to win such an award.The Fisker Karmaalsowon Automobile Magazine’s 2012 Design of the Year Award – one of five American cars to win in the award’s 23 year history – and was nominated as one of TIME Magazine’s 50 Best Inventions of 2011.

New York, 3 April 2012 – Fisker Automotive is pleased to unveil its all-new model, the Atlantic sedan. This is the latest model in the company’s expanding line up of extended-range luxury electric cars.
Revealed as a design prototype at a special VIP preview event the night before the New York Auto Show press days begin, the Fisker Atlantic design prototype is a luxury four-door sporting sedan with a practical interior. It is aimed at young families who want to drive an impactful, high-end vehicle while making a positive statement about responsibilities - both in terms of their commitment to sustainability and the practicalities of everyday life.

The Atlantic uses the latest second generation EVer (Electric Vehicle with extended range) technology. It will offer all the benefits of electric drive while at the same time eliminating the “range anxiety” experienced with an all-electric powertrain.

Like the Karma sedan, the Fisker Atlantic is a plug-in series hybrid vehicle that allows drivers to switch manually or automatically between electric and gasoline driving modes and sustain the charge of its lithium ion batteries on the move.

Its four-cylinder gasoline engine, which acts as a generator and is not mechanically connected to the wheels, is tuned to offer maximum economy and high torque. This Atlantic EVer powertrain will offer highly competitive performance for a car in its class. The standard powertrain will be configured for rear-wheel drive and an all-wheel drive version will be offered as an option.

The Atlantic design prototype’s glass roof shows off a ridged ‘spider’ structure. This incredibly strong construction also allows the Atlantic to offer a remarkable amount of rear headroom for a car with its sleek, coupe-like stance. This high-tech approach fulfills and surpasses all current and future rollover safety and crash-test requirements worldwide. The Fisker Atlantic’s long wheelbase also affords extra legroom for rear passengers and more space in the trunk.

The unique, exciting styling of the Atlantic retains and progresses Fisker’s signature design DNA. Henrik Fisker and his design team set out to create the most beautiful and dramatic vehicle in its class. Much of the design was inspired by nature, for example, the dynamic side theme, with strong sculptural lines that optically cross the center and over the rear wheels of the car. This gives a sense of power - replicating the stance of a wild tiger ready to pounce.

Further important design details to note include an evolution of the Fisker Karma signature grille, with a wider sculptured line defining the power dome on the hood. Strong creases emerge from the inside of the headlamps and continue back over the hood to elongate the car. The sharp headlights themselves give an ‘eagle eye’ with a strength of strong character not seen on a production car before. These touches allow the Atlantic to create a greater rear-view mirror presence than any other vehicle in its class.

Additionally, the rear door handles have been elegantly integrated in the rear C-pillars, to continue the sense and look of a sporting coupe without losing the practicality of a four-door sedan. The extremely slim LED tail lamps use the latest technology allowing them to split into two parts to offer a wider aperture for the trunk opening. The rear end of the car is clean and aerodynamically shaped, with a sharp spoiler lip on the trunk that runs down over the side of the car to enhance aerodynamic performance.

Overall, the Fisker Atlantic’s dimensions are comparable to those of an Audi A5. It has been engineered inside and out to offer a dynamic yet compact feel on the road.

“We are exceptionally proud of the Atlantic design prototype, and believe we have created another groundbreaking car that looks and will drive like nothing else on the road in this class,” said Henrik Fisker, co-founder, Executive Chairman, and Design Director of Fisker Automotive.

“Fisker Automotive is transitioning from a start-up automaker to a fully-fledged mainstream car manufacturer and the Atlantic is a crucial milestone in that process,” said Tom LaSorda, CEO Fisker Automotive. “We have a long way to go, but in the near future Fisker intends to deliver this exceptional American-designed, engineered, and manufactured vehicle to showrooms worldwide.”

“I’m confident the Fisker Atlantic will inspire people and win the brand many new customers who may not have considered an EVer powered vehicle like this before.”

More details on the Fisker Atlantic, including statistics, prices and an on-sale date will be given closer to the launch of the production car.

Anaheim, California, USA – November 30, 2011: The Fisker Karma sedan has been crowned ‘Luxury Car of the Year’ by BBC Top Gear magazine as well as ‘Car of the Year’ by Top Gear TV presenter, James May.As a start-up American car company, this award is very significant for Fisker Automotive. Top Gear is the world’s leading global automotive magazine and television show and, importantly, is based in Europe - the heart of the world’s top luxury automotive brands.

The Karma – Fisker’s first production car – is a 403 hp luxury sedan and the world’s first true electric vehicle with extended range (EVer™). In addition to being a four-door four-passenger sedan with sport performance and striking sculptural design, the Karma is also one of the most efficient, low-emission vehicles available today. The Karma combines the zero-emission efficiency of electric drive with the range and freedom of gasoline-powered cars, due to its cutting-edge EVer™ series hybrid powertrain technology,

Charlie Turner, BBC Top Gear magazine editor, explained why the Karma was a worthy winner: “Cleverness abounds in the Fisker and adds to the air of intelligent luxury. It works well, it looks good and it must be a genuinely exciting thing to own.

“It’s the top-of-the-line spec that features no leather, just textiles and reclaimed wood. And it’s more convincing than it sounds, managing to look, feel and smell premium without any cow peel in it at all,” Turner concluded.

Henrik Fisker, co-founder, CEO and executive design director of Fisker Automotive, commented: “It is fantastic news that the Karma has won two awards from Top Gear. We realize that we are at the beginning of our journey and awards like this remind us we are on the right road - building enticing green cars that people actually want to own. It’s particularly pleasing that this award recognizes the Karma as the world’s first luxury hybrid electric car.”

“It’s a triumph that American engineers have designed and engineered this ground breaking car at our global Headquarters in Anaheim, CA and that there is now a new American car option that is bold, beautiful, smart, and environmentally responsible.”

“We’re big fans of both the Top Gear show and magazine - it’s great to see motoring entertainment that is loved by millions. The fact that Fisker cars appeal to the Top Gear audience inspires us to continue producing cutting-edge luxury vehicles with extended range, including our upcoming new mid-sized sedan that will be built in Delaware, USA.”

It’s the latest in a run of high-profile recent awards for the Karma sedan that Fisker Automotive has been very proud to win, including Automobile’s Design of the Year and a Global Green Design Award. In winning the Top Gear ‘Luxury Car of the Year’ award, the Karma joins an exclusive group of prestigious previous winners, such as the Mercedes-Benz CLS Coupe, Jaguar XJ and Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupe.

SHANGHAI (Dec. 15, 2010) Fisker Automotive, the California manufacturer of premium electric vehicles with extended range, has partnered with the China Grand Automotive Group, the number one passenger car trader in China, to have its vehicles distributed, marketed and serviced in the region.

Executives from Fisker and China Grand Auto (CGA) formalized the non-exclusive agreement during a ceremony near CGA headquarters in Shanghai today. CGA has a network of more than 200 retail stores carrying 40 brands including Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Lexus and Lamborghini. In 2010 the company reached sales of RMB 50B (USD 7.5B).

The rapid growth of auto sales, particularly within the luxury segment, combined with the country’s effort to minimize carbon emissions makes China an excellent market for Fisker Automotive, a company that believes environmentally conscious cars can deliver passion, style and performance.

“We are extremely proud to be working with CGA to support Fisker Automotive in the fast-emerging Chinese market,” said Henrik Fisker, CEO, Fisker Automotive. “With its vast network of experienced retailers CGA will give Fisker an instant and credible footprint in the region. CGA’s attention to detail and excellent customer service will ensure Fisker buyers receive the level of service and peace of mind expected of a premium brand.”

Fisker Automotive’s first car, the Fisker Karma, will make its Chinese debut at the Shanghai Motor Show in April 2011. The Karma represents Fisker Automotive’s vision of responsible luxury and is the world’s first true electric vehicle with extended range.

The Karma combines world class style and performance with industry leading economy and the lowest emissions of nearly any production vehicle. With a total range of 483 km (300 mi) the four-passenger Karma saloon is capable of traveling 80 km (50 mi) on emission-free electric power alone, and an additional 403 km (250 mi) on low-emission hybrid electric power.

About 3,000 pre-orders for the Karma have already been placed by eager customers around the world. The company plans to sell 15,000 Karma vehicles per year globally. Initial Chinese customer deliveries are expected to take place in the fall.

Fisker is also developing a higher-volume line of premium electric vehicles with extended range, scheduled to start production in the fourth quarter of 2012.

This partnership with CGA brings to five the number of Fisker importers developing comprehensive retail networks that will provide consumers around the world convenient access to the company’s stylish, environmentally conscious vehicles.

Fisker’s North American network consists of 42 retailers in 45 locations from coast to coast.

The Fisker Karma is the world’s first true electric vehicle with extended range and the embodiment of the design-driven company’s firm belief that environmentally conscious cars need not sacrifice passion, style or performance.

Designed by Fisker Automotive co-founder, CEO and executive design director Henrik Fisker (Artega GT; Aston Martin V8 Vantage; Aston Martin DB9; BMW Z8), the four-door, four-passenger Karma combines world-class style with better efficiency and lower emissions than today’s best hybrids to deliver an uncompromised, premium vehicle that sets the tone for the future of driving.

With exotic car looks, sports car performance, an achievable annual average economy of 2.4L/100 km (100 mpg) and emissions of just 83g/km, the 300 kW (403 hp/408 PS) Fisker Karma is the only truly responsible alternative to traditionally powered luxury cars.
