Which electric-vehicle company did Henrik Fisker and Bernhard Koehler found in 2007?

Henrik Fisker and Bernhard Koehler founded Fisker Automotive in 2007.

The company was established to develop premium plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, building on Henrik Fisker’s background as an automotive designer. Its best-known model was the Fisker Karma, a plug-in hybrid luxury sedan introduced in the early 2010s.

Fisker Automotive filed for bankruptcy in 2014 after production and financial difficulties. Its assets were later acquired by Wanxiang and became associated with Karma Automotive, while Henrik Fisker later founded another company, Fisker Inc., in 2016.

The two names are easy to confuse. Fisker Automotive was the 2007 company founded with Koehler; Fisker Inc. was a later venture and is not the answer to this question. The earlier company’s history is therefore separate from the later Fisker brand.
