Legendary car designer Henrik Fisker has recently unveiled the first images of his new 2016 EMotion Luxury Electric vehicle. The new EV will have a 400-mile range and can hit a top speed of 161 MPH using just its electric battery.

Fisker recently also tweeted about the new 2016 Emotion Luxury Electric Vehicle giving us a glimpse of the features of the upcoming model. The images showing a side view of the EV seems to be an updated version of the earlier Karma, which was also produced by his former company. Here's everything we know about the model so far:

2016 EMotion Luxury Electric Vehicle: Looks And Features

The frame of the 2016 EV has been designed keeping in mind its aerodynamic performance. This helps the car to achieve an ambitious range of 400 miles as well as a brilliant top speed of 161 MPH. The EV manufacturer has also tried to move the vehicle's interior space forward, making the Car spacier and comfortable compared to the Tesla Model S.

The images show the 2016 EMotion Luxury Electric Vehicle front without a grille. However, the EV does have new adaptive LED headlights. The four-door Luxury Electric Sedan has already gathered attention with its new out-of-the-world butterfly doors, which are expected to work much better than Tesla Model X's falcon-wing doors.

2016 EMotion Luxury Electric Vehicle: What To Expect

The car not only features sleek aerodynamic lines, it also has a low yet aggressively-angled bonnet coupled with a bigger front windscreen. The cabin has plenty of legroom and both front as well as rear passengers will get access to the infotainment screens.

The design and specs of the 2016 EMotion Luxury Electric vehicle are obviously quite amazing, however, the new battery design based on quick-charging ultracapacitor tech hasn't been verified yet. A similar problem may arise with the new butterfly doors as well as the carbon fiber body as while they may appear cool, Tesla and other automakers have had a lot of trouble with these specs.

No official announcement about the price of the EMotion Luxury Electric vehicle has yet been made, but Fisker earlier stated that the car will be shown to Public sometime near mid-2017. Stay Tuned to SWR for more recent news and updates on the 2016 EMotion Luxury Electric Vehicle.
