Fisker EMotion will receive a 145-kWh battery good for over 400-mile run

Electric vehicles are starting to become a norm in today’s world. Even the largest automakers try and follow this trend by developing their very own electric vehicles, where other companies focus on building electric cars solely.

Not so long ago, Henry Fisker announced the new EMotion, and we heard from them again earlier this week as they shared the battery specs for the electric super sedan. The company had an interview with The Detroit Bureau, and while at it, they confirmed that the battery in the EMotion is capable of holding 145 kilowatts per hour. In other words, it will have 45 percent more energy than that of the 100 kWh that the Tesla Models S and X have.

Fisker did not just mention the size of the battery, but they also said that it operates at 800 volts. So far, that is the highest that we have ever heard. In fact, it doubles that of what Tesla’s drivetrain offers. And the closest vehicle out there that can match that is the Koenigsegg Regera with its 4.5 kWh battery they got from Rimac Automobili.

Fisker to start taking pre-orders for new EMotion on June 30, starting price is at $129,900

Fisker Inc.’s countdown to the official unveiling of the new Fisker EMotion in mid-August 2017 has practically started after the carmaker released the first official teaser images and some details of its latest electric car project.

According to Fisker, the new EMotion was designed all new from inside out, with its electric car proportions made into reality by a structure made from carbon fiber and aluminum. In penning the design of the new EMotion, Fisker focused on the safety and convenience of its passengers. In fact, Fisker’s patented frontal crash structure has already surpassed the current passenger safety standards. Likewise, the new EMotion provides a luxurious and roomy cabin that offers a generous amount of legroom.

As designed, the Fisker EMotion shown in the first official images look different from the prototype’s teaser images released in October 2016. Compared with the prototype, the new EMotion – assuming that this is the final design – has a smaller grille, more realistic headlights, and more stunning turn signals. The bright aluminum centerpiece on the front end of the EMotion is home to a LIDAR system. This technology is supported by two cameras on the side mirrors, allowing for a panoramic, 360-degree view.

Fisker to unveil the new EMotion on August 17, 2017

All is set for the unveiling of the comeback model for Fisker Inc., founded and led by well-known automotive designer Henrik Fisker. For those who are following Fisker’s latest and newest electric car project, the new Fisker EMotion, save this date on your calendar: August 17, 2017.

Henrik essentially announced the date for officially unveiling of the Fisker EMotion in a post in his Twitter account. In the same post, Henrik said that the new Fisker EMotion has an EV range of more than 400 miles. With this, Henrik is confirming some details of what were disclosed in October 2016. Back then, the carmaker divulged that the new Fisker EMotion will be revealed in mid-2017, with the capability go as fast as 161 mph.

The very impressive 400-plus-mile range of the new Fisker EMotion will be thanks to a new battery technology – as conceived by Fisker Nanotech and Nanotech Energy Inc. – that employs Graphene Supercapacitors. It simply means that it won’t be getting juice from a lithium-ion battery, which the current choice of energy source for existing electric vehicles.

Rear end of Fisker EMotion electric luxury sports sedan becomes talk of the town

Months after Fisker Inc. revealed the front end and, to some point, the profile of the new , the carmaker has now released an image of the rear end of its electric luxury sport sedan.

While the front section of the Fisker EMotion is a pure expression of technological aggressiveness, the rear end of this electric luxury sedan is a manifestation of sporty elegance. Its sportiness comes with the systemic curves as well as wide sculptural shoulders. This sense of athleticism is evident in the EMotion’s lower rear diffuser and integrated spoiler that should help this luxury sport sedan with regards to aerodynamics. One very interesting feature of EMotion’s rear end is its thin tail lights.

As designed by Fisker Inc. founder and car designer Henrik Fisker, the new Fisker EMotion doesn’t just exude unprecedented sportiness. That’s because it delivers an incredible technological prowess that’s packed with – just like its name suggests – plenty of emotion. Its front end features an extremely low bonnet – for aerodynamic enhancement – and a grille-less front fascia that seems like it came from the future. Of course, there would be no need for such a grille since the Fisker EMotion is electrically powered and thus features no conventional engine. Adding to the emotional nature of the Fisker EMotion is the unusually expressive boomerang-shaped headlamp unit that makes it seem that the electric luxury sports sedan is ready to jump into action anytime it is required to.
