BIEBER AND DICAPRIO DRIVE IT: THE ECO-FRIENDLY "RICH MAN'S TOY" ARRIVES IN BETHESDA - FISKER KARMA IS HERE!

THE GREEN CAR

WITH AN

EXHAUST NOTE

Another Robert Dyer @ Bethesda Row Exclusive

Bethesda is now officially the Richest Town in America.  So how better to save the planet, than with a $110,000 hybrid electric car?

Yes, there's the extravagant Fisker Karma, basking in the oohs, aahs, and adulation of shoppers at Bethesda's Westfield Montgomery Mall.  It's certainly a deserved reward for the exotic sedan, after a long boat ride from Finland to the United States.

With a relatively-modest fuel economy rating of 54 MPG electric, and 22 MPG with its GM gasoline engine online, are you overpaying to slow the rise of the oceans, and heal the planet?

Probably.  The Tesla Model S will give the Karma a run for its money.   But let's face it, the S is no Karma in the styling department.

With the Karma, you get a "tailored" drivers seat.  Stealth Mode.  10.2" dashboard screen.

And everyone's attention on the road.

Described as a "rich man's toy," well, that descriptor will suit you well in Bethesda.  If it's good enough for Justin Bieber and Leo DiCaprio...

Once prices hit six figures, I'm thinking of Lamborghinis and Ferraris.  But if saving the world is on top of your list, and you're determined to do it in the grandest style, the Fisker Karma is waiting for you to take a test drive.
