2011 Fisker Karma<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Fisker Automotive will be building about 70 to 100 Karma plug-in hybrid sedan this year for testing purposes, a major investor in the company said.<\/p>\n

“These will be tested internally, crash tested and used for other testing purposes,” Ray Lane, managing partner at U.S. venture capital fund Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers told Reuters<\/em>. “Some of them will be given to customers for testing purposes as well, out in the real road.”<\/p>\n

Lane said that Fisker will start mass production of the Karma sedan in February with a planned 15,000 units annually. Fisker also has plans to do a convertible version of the Karma shortly after the sedan hits roads.<\/p>\n

Refresher<\/strong>: Power comes from Fisker\u2019s Q-DRIVE system, which is made up of two 201-hp electric motors that are powered by a lithium-ion battery pack. That allows the 2010 Karma to travel up to 50 miles without the use of any gasoline. A generator attached to a 260-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter Ecotec direct injection gasoline engine by General Motors provides an extended range of up to 300 miles. 0 to 60 mph comes in 5.8 seconds with a top speed of 125 mph.<\/p>\n
