ReviewJournal.com - Drive - Fisker's gorgeous hybrid frightens Detroit

ReviewJournal.com - Drive - Fisker's gorgeous hybrid frightens Detroit: "With a flash of his pen, and some electrification, Fisker is single-handedly taking on Detroit's muscle, one plug-in car at a time.

About 2,500 miles west of the Motor City, Fisker is sketching creations for more variants of his Karma plug-in hybrid car. Eventually, it will spawn a family of hybrid vehicles: a four door, a two-door hardtop convertible (shown at January's Detroit auto show) and a family-oriented car.

The vehicles are drop-dead gorgeous -- works of art and emotion and high-end science.

That Fisker left a dream job as design director at Aston Martin to team up with his longtime friend Bernhard Koehler was shocking enough. Fisker's fingerprints were all over the Z8, the Aston DB9 coupe and V8 Vantage, to name a few icons."
