It is not a hybrid... It is an electric car with petrol generator. That generator is indeed an engine, but it runs on far lower RPM because it doesn't power the wheels, hence it burns a lot less fuel to get an amazingly high MPG without range anxiety. That is the most practical electric car ever.
the only reason im here is cuz i love cars and enjoy learning new topics. efffin bieber got this car, can't believe it ... that's the beauty of being rich .. extended
I wonder if Fisker looked into a gas turbine to run the generator? Turbines don't work as well for stop and go but they do work well for holding an rpm as in running a generator! I don't think anyone would complain about the sound of a turbine!! Even though turbines would work very well running a generator you have to make sure you have the right turbine if not the efficiency would be very bad as not all turbines get good gas mileage but if the right turbine were chosen would be a nice match!!!!
i meant like questioning why it should matter where it's from. A good car is a good car no matter where...I honestly love the Tesla EV's if you ask me.
I agree with you.. The "press agree" seems really stupid.. Foot on the break to realease the parking break though, all cars has that today.. Everbutton? :) "Power on" i would call it :)
It is not a hybrid... a hybrid's petrol engine is connected to the wheels. The Karma's petrol engine is only a generator, which is far more efficient than a hybrid. Plus, if you've got a short commute, the car will do 60 miles on batteries alone.
Have you never driven a car? He turns on the car (presses the start button and the agree button), lets off the parking brake and puts it in gear. Simple enough...
There is no mechanical connection between the wheels and the gas motor. The Chevy volt is being touted as an electric vehicle and it's gas motor powers the wheels at high apeeds.
very smart, everyone says its bad beacuse its not full electric but its still alot better than any other car and i wourld know i live in bel air CA and have both a tesla and Fisker Karma EVer, im not bashing on the tesla but this feels like it drives better and its just more fun regardles to say this any any tesla or super fuel efficent car is good because the point of these cars is to help the enviroment. also you guys are keeping out the fact of its CO2 polutio,. Karma tops any car ive seen.
When this company goes out of business in a couple of years from now, like Tucker, Muntz, Auburn, Duesenberg,Cord and DeLorean this car will be in high demand. After all that's the way of karma
Question, what the hell were you smoking? In what universe does and ever will a Porsche Panamera look better than the Karma? In what way will a Panamera ever look good?
How is it hideous? Other than the odd looking 'hatch' design, the profile and front fascia looks Porsche all the way. The interior while not as fancy as the Karma, has quality materials and build quality. The Karma I can't bring myself to like. The gaping maw just doesn't evoke the same emotion like the front of an Aston. The reliability is also a concern, especially when it breaks down during testing at Consumer Reports, to which no car ever has before.
The Fisker has good drivetrain, but the car looks (and even in real life) looks hideous. Even the Porsche Panamera looks nicer in the exterior. The interior I think betters the Tesla Model S. The overly large screen is a hit & miss: The GPS is nice and large, but the climate controls are insanely small. The smaller screen on the Fisker looks less ostentatious in that regard. But I can't get over the odd styling of the Karma. I take the Model S. Or a Panamera Hybrid.
The Karna looks like it was either over-styled or paid little sense to natural aesthetics. The gaping maw of the front grille looks hideous. The side profile looks completely confused, which swoops ups & downs with no real design direction. The Panamera, despite the oddly proportioned hatch, actually resembles a lengthened hatchback/coupe design, and is relatively a clean design. The Karma feels like modern art = "that is art?"
shit on tesla S! a big advantage of the fisker is the possibility to load the battery with the gas motor! 300 km from the tesla is not enough for many people. and the tesla S is a ugly car if you compare it with the karma!
I'm glad I found this video. I bought the car but didn't know how to start it.
This is what I always imagined a car from Apple would be like and my dad thought the same thing when he test drove it. Great work!
striking, beautiful exterior with an even better interior. i really wish the best for fisker and its karma.
Best designed car I have ever seen - and I cannot wait to purchase one!
What a winner!!!

This video really shows off the Karma.
Because it is. It is an electric car with a petrol generator. It is extremely economical, and it doesn't suffer from range issues.
He didn't speak a word about one of the greatest features the car has, the glass solar panel roof.
why does it take 5 minutes to start the car
😂 it starts right up
quit complaining people be happy they actually created a hybrid that ACTUALLY looks SWEET!!!
This should be on every car and not so expensive
It's cool to see one that's not on fire!
progress is good

are they still around,or did they go bankrupt?
Kelvin N got bought by a Chinese firm.
looks wicked
Awesome. I just recently saw one.
Is there any research on how to reduce the vehicle weight for even better performance?

The best thing is, It's Danish!
Go Denmark!
Nice stunning car

the car looks god... put a v12 engine and fuck the electric....
I agree with you.. The "press agree" seems really stupid.. Foot on the break to realease the parking break though, all cars has that today.. Everbutton? :) "Power on" i would call it :)
Beautiful car, and nice shoes :)
Why cant you charge the battery while in sport mode?

Why do I have to see the intro and outro 10 times in the SAME video?!?!
Now we have to explain that to the valet drivers every single time...

ho are the creators of the karma, hos the owner of the company, is it an american car?
i have to admit this car looks pretty sweet without a doubt.. model s is a great car.. but i would prefer this karma instead
When this company goes out of business in a couple of years from now, like Tucker, Muntz, Auburn, Duesenberg,Cord and DeLorean this car will be in high demand. After all that's the way of karma
Prescient comment
@vratsi do those things really matter?
effing bieber just got this for his 18th birthday. wtf, rich gets richer
Please, like the person before me said, make a two door. Just build the Sunset Concept.
the volt is not a hybrid its an extended range electric vehicle
Ferragamo shoes detected iwant those D:
Why a car that burns oil it's promoted as electric??
Question, what the hell were you smoking? In what universe does and ever will a Porsche Panamera look better than the Karma? In what way will a Panamera ever look good?
HOW MUCH
amazing i wish this car lunch in middle east :(
and why are there videos for justin beiber in the side bar -_-
It seems like a long list of stuff to do to START the car and DRIVE! How much is this car $100,000????
It's Rolex Daytona on your arm
That agree Button is annoying, I hate it
so...the battery range is only 50.......Tesla Roadster...full electric....250 mile range on the battery....
Just keep watching this car is no more than a fancy volt they already have problems with the car dont bet on those orders being filled.
Fisker Karma, Justin Bieber approved. LOL

sounds like there is a lot of stuff to go wrong with this car.....
@vratsi is it american? really?
really because a model s fully loaded costs $124,000 and i see hundreds of fiskers on ebay for less than 80k..... wrong
KARMA ISNT SUCH A BITCH AFTER ALL..I WAS WRONG FOR ALL THIS YEARS OF MY LIFE KARMA YOUR THE SHIT LOL
i would love it without the hybrid stuff :) the interior is inredible. just look at the dash
gucci shoes
They already have 3000 orders and 1 billion dollars in the bank, how can they become bankrupt?
Ooops…
With the petrol engine the car gets about 20-25 mpg...Thats worse than any other car in its class...
tesla is better but i still think that fisker has a good future
It's a plug in hybrid...
yea i know rofl, looks like a maserati
this car is more expensive than a model s
Tesla=range anxiety
Fisker=no range anxiety
Can I pay you in gum?
yeah but he's still trying give them time

take a Tesla cross country from coast to coast see how that goes
shit on tesla S! a big advantage of the fisker is the possibility to load the battery with the gas motor! 300 km from the tesla is not enough for many people. and the tesla S is a ugly car if you compare it with the karma!
Nice car but look like made from Microsoft and based on Windows :)
And... take about 2 minute to take off :)
it's only 32 miles on batteries, and anything over is only rated at 20mpg. It's a pretty terrible car compared to a Volt or a Model S
looks like a fish
nooooooooooooooooo!!
Tesla is undoubtedly the best, but also the most expensive :(
I see a bankrupt company soon.
No you wouldnt the tesla is flawless, the greatest car ever made, this fisker fail is so inefficient, you clearly havent driven a model s, stop
Tesla S looks much better and is a "real" electric car...
@rjayzonfeet Yes it does, and it is ugly as hell. Plus it is overpriced.. This is cheap for a super car....
It's still a Hybrid :)
Get a Tesla :D
please change your lame coloured logo it doesn't look fancy or classy looks like a bicycle logo
Justin Bieber Car's. Shit.
ewww panameras are hideous.
fisker karma all the way!
Tesla = better
Tesla is just a wannabe
muintobonito 🤣 how about now.
This comment didn't age well.
5400 lbs. EV is still useless at least for now
Chevy volt does this
fisker, will you come out with a two seater vehicle anytime soon? fisker karma is awesome by the way. i love hybrid, or EVer vehicles.
Hows the AC?where are in the middleast,closest dealer is in turkey.
I think its italian if you ask me!
