Hybrid Power
Quantum are responsible for providing the plug-in-hybrid electric vehicle architecture “Q-Drive” which will alone, allow the car to travel 50 miles with zero-emission (the battery only range). Q-Drive is a system which uses a small engine to charge the battery when driving around. Charging of the car is done at home with a regular 110-volt outlet. If you want to be really environmentally friendly then you can use the 220/240V fast charging system which uses Quantum’s solar energy system which is embedded in the roof of the car. The solar roof also can use it’s generated energy to cool the cabin while the car is parked which is a unique feature.
The price tag of the Fisker Karma will be in the $80,000 range. Deliveries will commence in the 4th quarter of 2009.
