Karma Automotive is an American company that makes luxury electric vehicles. It was founded in 2014 after the Chinese company Wanxiang Group bought the assets of Fisker Automotive, which went bankrupt. Karma is based in Irvine, California. The company makes cars at a factory in Moreno Valley, California. Karma sells its cars in places like North America, Europe, South America, and the Middle East.
In February 2014, Wanxiang Group, a Chinese company, bought the assets of Fisker Automotive after it went bankrupt. Fisker’s old factory in Delaware and the designs for its cars were included in the sale, but the Fisker brand itself was not.
In 2016, Karma started building a new car called the Revero in its Moreno Valley factory. The company planned to make about 3,000 Revero cars a year. In 2019, Karma opened a Customization Center to create special designs for its cars and also announced a partnership to build electric delivery vehicles.
