Karma Invictus Announced with Only 30 to Be BuiltKarma Automotive
  • The Karma Invictus is the latest version of a four-door sedan that draws its lineage all the way back to the 2012 Fisker Karma.

  • The Invictus is the performance version of the Karma Revero and adds a carbon-fiber hood, roof, and trunk lid and gains Öhlins coil-over suspension.

  • Only 30 will be built, all of which will use the same turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine to power two electric motors on the rear axle. The company has not announced a release date yet.

Karma, the small Southern California automaker that rose from the ashes of Fisker Automotive, has a brand-new car. Well, sort of. Feast your eyes on the Karma Invictus, the new performance-focused version of the Karma Revero sedan. We say sort of because, before the Revero, the Invictus can draw its lineage straight through the Karma GS-6 and all the way back to the 2012 Fisker Karma.

While most of the styling is shared with the Revero, the Invictus makes use of a carbon-fiber hood, roof, and rocker panels as well as the trunklid and spoiler. The front fenders are also carbon and feature a set of louvers to release air pressure from the front wheel arches.

Karma also looked to make performance gains by adding a set of motorsports-derived coil-overs from Öhlins with springs from Swift. The steering is said to be improved as well, with Karma stating that it is both more direct and predictable at the cornering limit.

Every Invictus will be powered by the same plug-in-hybrid powertrain that uses a turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine to power a pair of electric motors on the rear axle. The system produces a combined 536 horsepower and 550 pound-feet of torque.

Karma is only planning to build 30 of the Invictus, and the company has not released either pricing information or a delivery timeline.
