Hey there. Will Sabel Courtney here for Drive Wire on October 21st, 2016.
Today on Drive Wire: Henrik Fisker has revealed the first picture of his new Tesla Model S-fighting electric sedan, revealing that the car has not one but two sets of butterfly doors.
An email to journalists describes the car as being built from a blend of carbon fiber, composites, and aluminum, and using “an engaging user experience that brings technology and streaming content into a simple logical order.”
In a recent interview with Business Insider, Fisker said that the car will have a range of at least 400 miles, thanks to an advanced new form of energy storage known as grapheme supercapacitors.
The car will be priced similarly to a high-end Tesla Model S, Fisker told BI. But he intends to follow up this vehicle with a second EV that will be more affordable than the Tesla Model 3 and the Chevy Bolt.
Fisker says we can expect to see more of the car next week. It’s currently scheduled to arrive on the streets in 2017.
