The first Fisker Karma in the UK has been auctioned off at the event held in Camden’s Round House art venue, where the winner ended up paying £140,000 (about €160,000 or $220,000 US dollars at the current exchange rates) for their extended range electric vehicle.
This is more than double the market value of the revolutionary car, so a lot of money (the proceeds) will go to the Pratham UK. The first car in the country will also have a plaque signed by ex Aston Designer and Fisker Automotive CEO and co-founder, Henrik Fisker.

We’ll remind you that the architecture of the Fisker Karma is built around an aluminum chassis and features a battery pack placed in the middle for improved distribution. Two electric motors are placed at the back a turbocharged gasoline 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine up front, which charges the batteries acting as a range extender.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
