Fisker Karma: Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle

 

 The Fisker Karma uses Q-DRIVE plug-in hybrid technology which means a fully-charged Karma burns no fuel for the first 50 miles before a gasoline engine kicks in to charge the lithium ion battery and the car operates as a normal hybrid vehicle. The Karma's 0-60 mph time is less than 6 seconds and has a top speed of 125 mph. Delivery of the $87,900, 100mpg Karma sedan will begin next year.
