Fisker Automotive has released a sketch of the Surf, what would be a third Karma-based vehicle for the fledging maker of extended-range electrics. While the rollout of the Karma sedan slowly continues, the line sketch of the Fisker Surf shows either a shooting brake or a wagon-like Karma with a surfboard on top.
Perhaps influenced by the launch of the Ferrari FF, the Surf adds another dimension to Fisker’s luxury hybrid lineup, which starts with the $80,000 sedan. It’s assumed that the Surf would be powered by the same Q-Drive powertrain featuring a lithium-ion battery pack, electric motors and a range-extending 260-bhp turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine. While only the Karma sedan is currently being offered, Fisker showed the Sunset S concept in 2009, and at the time the company said it was taking orders. However, no firm timetable for production of that retractable-hardtop model has been announced.
