Elon Musk’s Tesla is far from the only luxury electric vehicle in town, as demonstrated by the Henrik Fisker EMotion, which dials up the feels. Design legend Fisker has been making waves this year with both his former automotive claim to fame, Karma, and now the Fisker Inc EMotion.

Henrik Fisker is known to be a trailblazer in the luxed-up all-electric vehicle department. His previous luxury EV model, the Karma, managed to create a buzz in the niche industry, with A-list buyers such as Leonardo DiCaprio. Although Fisker Automotive went bankrupt in 2013, it was acquired by Chinese auto-parts giant Wanxiang and has been revived, albeit without Fisker himself. Obviously, the man is not down for the count, as these tantalizing images show…

EMotion can be seen as Karma’s sleeker, bolder descendant but only time will tell if it is a more complete package. The newly-developed battery (still in development at UCLA) promises a 400-mile range for a single charge. It also features a fully-autonomous driving option and the capability to reach a top speed of 161 mph.

Outside, the EMotion also has dihedral ‘butterfly’ doors forward and back, as well adaptive LED headlights. Fisker himself notes EMotion’s interior space boasts “superb rear legroom”. For now, only the teaser images for the EMotion have arrived, so we just need to see it for real.
