It is quiet around the maker of superhybrides. Fisker Automotive has been a while no cars produced, but the company is not yet specified. In fact, with regularity, we hear investors ask the Americans.
The following that offering in the takeover fray is an investment group called Fritz Nol AG, led by lawyer Ingo Voigt. The latter is not entirely coincidentally, himself a Fisker-rider. In German media, he explained his plan to expose to Fisker HQ in Hamburg to establish, and the production in the U.s. Delaware corridor.
In the plan of Voigt talking about an annual production of 2,500 Karma’s – a car that is already a year no longer being built, good luck with the restart of the production line – and later there were the cabrioversie Sunset as well as the shooting brake variant of the Surf to be added. Ambition can not be denied. The smaller and cheaper Atlantic, they would not be in production. From cost savings.
On the question of how realistic it is that these Germans Fisker in the hands, only the U.s. Department of Energy, a good answer. This ministry will receive another €150 million from Fisker in the form of a repayable loan, and so, with an axe in the hands of the root of Fisker: will be dismantling, or they go in on the 25 million that Fritz Nol AG for the battered company wants to give? Before was Bob ‘do-but-a-V8’ Lutz also finished with a similar millions of dollars. In addition, it would also the Chinese Wanxiang Group have an interest.
In short, candidates enough for the brainchild of Henrik Fisker, but it seems like the DoE should decide who is Fisker a second life. (via Groen7.nl)
