It's Electric
Fisker Electric car
In a move that may very well decide the outcome of the electric car wars before they even begin Fisker Automotive today announced that they will be charging $95,900 USD for the base model Karma electric car. This is a price increase of $15,900 USD over its initially stated price (in 2008) and puts the sedan at close to double the cost of its nearest competitor, the Tesla Model S which has a sticker price of $56,400 USD.
How many do I want????

Re: It's Electric
so, how soon after the electric car becomes the norm, will the price of gas drop? then again, gas prices may drop, but the cost of electricity will skyrocket..

Re: It's Electric
$95,900 USD for the Karma electric? Maybe get away with charging that much for Carmen Electra...

Re: It's Electric
I've heard about those. They should look like scizzors---hehe
There's also the Coda electric.
There are many electric cars out there. Phoenix Motorcars sells electric powered truck for $45,000. listed as 130 miles and 95 mph.
Like many things, the battery tech is still developing. Look for another 10 years before a battery powered vehicle can go 400 miles and maintain 65 mph for that time.
