The new chief executive of Anaheim-based luxury hybrid automaker Fisker Automotive Inc. told an industry gathering recently that he’d like to take the company public.
Tony Posawatz also said Fisker has had discussions with other automakers about strategic partnerships on bringing its more affordable Atlantic to market.
Fisker’s first model is the Karma luxury-hybrid sedan, which retails for upward of $102,000.
Posawatz’ comments came during an Automotive Press Association luncheon in Detroit on Oct. 1. A week earlier Fisker announced a $100 million funding round involving undisclosed investors, bringing its total to $1.2 billion.
