 Unlike the Fisker Tramonto and Latigo CS, which are based on a Mercedes-Benz SL and BMW 6-Series, respectively, the as-yet-unnamed sedan will be built from the ground up. The technology powering the vehicle is made possible by Fisker's joint venture partner Quantum Technologies -- an outfit that has done work for Toyota and GM in the past. The recent appointment of former BMW engineer Thomas Fritz as Fisker's Director of Engineering probably doesn't hurt, either.

Fisker has set an ambitious starting price of $80,000 and claims that initial deliveries will begin in the fourth quarter of 2009. We're more than a little skeptical that the company will be able to pull off its projected volume of 15,000 cars a year, especially in light of the many delays that have tied up Tesla's $98,000 pure-electric roadster.
