So I'm sure you all have read about the Model S father and son pair that met Elon's 400 mile plus challenge. They were able to get 423.5 miles on their Model S which has an EPA rated 265 miles. They were able to accomplish this by driving an average of 25 mph in the wee hours of the morning with no traffic or altitude change. Thing is, that record they set really is only 1.6x the EPA mileage rating. In Fisker terms, that would be like the Karma getting 51.1 miles (1.6x32). There have already been a few folks that have gotten 50 miles on a charge. I regularly get 41-43 miles under normal driving. Anyone up for seeing if they can best this Tesla record on the Karma?
As an aside, interesting that most Model S owners get substantially less than the EPA range (210-240 miles out of the EPA ranting of 265 miles) while all Karma owners get more - most cases, substantially more range than the EPA rating (38-45 miles vs EPA rating of 32 miles)!
