Well, treats! finally got its chance to see first hand the long-awaited Fisker Karma plug-in-hybrid car—and all the hype was RIGHT ON. The Karma’s recipe calls for sexy design mixed with a heap of sustainability, and Henrik Fisker has nailed it. Needless to say, what comes around does indeed go around and treats! predicts a huge success with the Karma. Here’s a quick snapshot: Up front there’s a 260-hp, GM-supplied four-cylinder engine, and an American-made lithium-ion battery pack; a twin AC motor straddles the rear axle that delivers 402 horsepower; beautiful aluminum skin radiates; a solar-cell roof impresses; faux suede interiors are sumptuous; and rescued California wildfire hardwood give it all an earthy touch. Our conclusion? This energy-saving beast is well worth its six-figure price tag. The future is here!
