Hybrid Heaven

Lets face it, when we hear the word Hybrid in relation to cars the good old Prius pops to mind. What’s been lacking however from the market is that certain va va voom. Enter noted car designer Henrik Fisker, with the ultra cool Karma a sleek, power packed eco-luxury ride.

The Karma’s performance specs rev out at 0-60 mph in 6 seconds, and a top speed of 125 mph. At $80,000 USD, The car is a plug-in hybrid based on technology of Quantum Technologies. The Q DRIVE consists of a small gasoline engine, which in turn charges the lithium battery packs in the car. According to Fisker, if charged properly, the hybrid would need to use no more than a fuel tank per year, quite a claim!

This is not a concept car this is the real McCoy! So now all of you performance driven drivers can really put the foot down and get some green credentials.
