Karma Automotive rose from the ashes of Fisker
Automotive and it’s been selling an updated version of the original Karma – now
called Revero – ever since. The Karma originally went into production in 2011 and that’s eternity
in the world of electrified vehicles. Thankfully, big changes are coming as
Karma Automotive will use the Shanghai Auto Show to introduce at least two new
vehicles.
The company is keeping details under wraps, but they
will unveil a new Revero and an electric Vision concept in China. The automaker
will also present the “first results of a partnership with Pininfarina.” Karma was coy on specifics, but
said the “next-generation” Revero will go on sale in the second half of the
year. That isn’t much to go on, but
previous spy photos have shown the Revero will be getting a facelift that
includes new bumpers and restyled lighting units.
The automaker also released a teaser image of the
Vision concept which features full width taillights and a compact greenhouse.
Karma says the car previews their “long-term direction in terms of luxury
craftsmanship, advanced technology, and an evolution in luxury design
language.”
Karma didn’t say much else about the model, but it’s
worth noting the concept in an electric vehicle rather than a range-extended
model like the Revero. This isn’t too surprising as modern electric vehicles
offer hundreds of miles of range without any compromise.
