Fisker Elux is the Karma a good bit: almost half of the car gets an upgrade.

It is information that we expected only at the end of april to hear, but Kroymans-director and Elux-importer (the new name of Fisker), Geert-Jan Tax hurled this afternoon all the news on the air at BNR. He reported that the first prototypes already on the road are sent and stressed that the Karma some much-needed (our words) innovations.

The Karma is for 42 percent upgraded, with Elux especially focused on larger batteries and a new, innovative powertrain. In addition, the existing Fisker-riders the opportunity to get their Karma in the short term of what new features to provide. We guess that it à la the Tesla Roadster is going to be bigger, more powerful battery packs.

It is, moreover, the question of where these batteries come from going to come, because supplier A123 Systems is the latest time quite a few staff lost to Apple. It seems to us not an ideal situation if you’re hard on the path to being a failed project to breathe new life into, but who knows it will Elux us at the end of april to enjoy during the official presentation of the plans of the brand.
