Fisker did a second close on their current funding round, bringing the total raised in this round to $133M. They also doubled the maximum size of the round to $300M from $150M.

Two points:
1) It takes a LOT of capital to fund a startup car company
2) Even with the delays, price increases, changing specs, etc., Fisker still looks attractive to investors. Tesla is still losing money hand over fist, but it enjoys a market cap of almost $3B.
