    Fisker Learns To Surf In Paris

    William Maley

    Editor/Reporter - CheersandGears.com

    March 1, 2012

    The Fisker Karma sports some sleek lines and daring proportions for an plug-in hybrid vehicle. The one it doesn’t sport is space. One only needs to see the Karma’s trunk to realize how much of a priority the design took over the space.

    However, at last year’s Frankfurt Motor Show, Fisker showed off the Surf concept. The Surf takes a regular Karma and extends its roofline with a hatchback/wagon/shooting brake body style to give it more space.

    Word has it that Fisker has green lit the Surf for production and will be shown at the Paris Motor Show in September.

    Interesting, another car for the uber rich to ride around in and think better of themselves. Glad some one has the money to get the technology down to common peoples price budget.

    Ove all this looks like an Electric Future Station Wagon. Not a fan myself of the styling.

    I've seen three Karmas on the streets so far, and each time I've been blown away by its presence and style. It's a very breathtaking design that stands out in a sea of midsize family sedans and crossovers.

    Intrepidation

    Not a big fan of the Surf, I hope the Karma S gets put into production though.

    As for space in the sedan, I'm perfectly ok with function taking a back seat to form. It almost never happens anymore with cars being all about interior volume and practicality.

      Yes, moderation is a challenge for this foodie. I love to cook, have learned to moderate how much I eat as I gotten older.

      It's that I don't like being in the kitchen, minding the sequences, buying and stocking up on ingredients.  I never got into it when I should have.  On the other hand, if I liked my own cooking, I might have a problem on my hands!

      Porsche News: 2026 Porsche Cayenne Goes Electric with 1,084 Horespower

      They will come to Canada where autos are cheaper such as the new Honda Prelude that is $7,000 cheaper in Canada than the U.S. due to Idiot47 Tariffs that are hurting so many Americans and have only brought in less than $150 billion such that it cannot even pay the interest on our debt but hurts everyone but the 1%. No, it has not brought in the Trillions Dirty Dumb Donald says it has, and no one will see a $2,000 tariff refund check. Rolex, Ferrari, etc. all these that do elite stuff do not care about the masses, only the 1%, as such why even bother buying their mass-produced products when they do not give everyone a fair chance at the limited-edition stuff. Yet with all the bitching about various things with Porsche, one has to agree that they are pushing the edge of tech as @ccap41 pointed out. Top of the fast recharge list, plus wireless charging which is a game changer.

      For me, cooking is a very trying and traumatic experience.  LOL.
