Driven: 2012 Fisker Karma ES
2012 Fisker Karma ES - Review - Automobile Magazine
No hocus pocus: The Fisker Karma just might be the new face of the American car industry.

Even though the technology powering the concept didn't yet exist, the Volt's appearance-combined with the sci-fi dream of a mass-market electric car finally becoming a reality-was so mesmerizing that the car immediately became a beacon of hope for the American auto industry.
