Though it's not available just yet, some things are too good to ignore - Karma being one of them. Slated in a Wired article to "do for the the plug-in electric what the Tesla has done for the electric car," which is make the latest in green technology smokin' hot, the Fisker Karma has lithium-ion batteries that purportedly get 50 miles of emissions-free, fully electric driving before it switches to a regular hybrid. With an $80,000 price tag, like the Tesla, it is priced to attract the eco-elite. Only 100 or so cars will be available (if all goes well) in 2009, but another 15,000 cars are supposed to go into annual production in 2010. Just a heads up in case you want to start saving. Fisker says that there are no compromises or sacrifices with this vehicle (your bank account might beg to differ). I guess karma isn't free after all.
