Deciding that your first product will be <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Fisker%20Karma">a US$100,000+ hybrid saloon</a> is very bold. Launching it to the market means, you’ve arrived, even if it’s a little later than originally planned and your first-ever model faced <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/08/fisker-finds-that-cooling-fan-unit-to.html">some recall issues</a> soon after its sales began. Henrik Fisker did all of the above in four years. He knew very well though that you can’t sustain a company with a single model; especially one that costs more than US$100K. That’s why Fisker Automotive <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/04/fisker-officially-unveils-new-audi-a5.html">revealed the Atlantic</a>, a mid-size petrol-electric hybrid, at the New York Show last April. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/10/fisker-new-atlantic-mid-size-hybrid.html#more">Read more »</a>

Since their inception in 2007, the Fisker brand has raised over $1 billion (€809 million) in private finances to back its automotive projects, but now they need an extra cash flow in order to finalize production of their newest Atlantic model in the very near future. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/08/fisker-looking-to-raise-150-million-to.html#more">Read more »</a>

Revealed here as a design prototype, the Atlantic will be Fisker's first mainstream and mass produced vehicle. The company said the car is aimed at young families who want to drive "an impactful, high-end vehicle while making a positive statement about responsibilities". <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uGZXg0vmpNQ/T3uoOAkdcQI/AAAAAAAHOok/IhA-9KlO_9Y/s1600/Fisker-Atlantic-9.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5727356309756276994" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uGZXg0vmpNQ/T3uoOAkdcQI/AAAAAAAHOok/IhA-9KlO_9Y/s200/Fisker-Atlantic-9.jpg" style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; border: 1px solid rgb(51, 51, 51); width: 103px; height: 153px;"></a>The California-based automaker declined to get into specific details, but it is believed that the <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/04/new-photos-of-fisker-atlantic-hybrid.html">Atlantic</a> will start from under $50,000, not including any federal green tax credits, which could reduce the price to a little over $40,000, or less than half the cost of the Karma. Just like the Karma sedan, the Atlantic is a plug-in series hybrid that allows the driver to switch manually or automatically between electric and gasoline driving modes and sustain the charge of its lithium ion batteries on the move. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/04/fisker-officially-unveils-new-audi-a5.html#more">Read more »</a>
