Costa Mesa-based Fisker Automotive and Technologies Group LLC launched a new customer support website for owners of its Karma luxury sports cars.
The site, thenewfisker.com, provides owners company-approved locations where their cars can be serviced and offers up to $2,000 in free parts and an additional $1,000 in free labor for some. Elite Motors OC in Aliso Viejo is one of 15 U.S. centers listed on the company’s website as being a dedicated service provider for the Karma, whose first model cost about $100,000.
The move is among the first announcements by Fisker since Wanxiang Group in China bought it last year for $149.2 million.
Automotive trade publications expect the company to roll out a new corporate name in the near future, among other initiatives. Local real estate watchers, meanwhile, are anticipating a possible move of the company’s main offices, and potentially a new manufacturing facility in the Inland Empire.
