The California-based electric vehicle maker Fisker has unveiled its most ambitious and exclusive model yet: the Fisker Ronin. This stunning four-door, five-seat convertible is designed to be the ultimate electric grand touring car, with a claimed 1,000 horsepower, a 600-mile range, and a $385,000 price tag. Only 999 units will be produced, making it a rare and coveted collector's item.
The Fisker Ronin is the brainchild of Henrik Fisker, the founder and CEO of Fisker Inc. and a renowned automotive designer who has worked on iconic cars such as the BMW Z8, the Aston Martin DB9, and the original Fisker Karma. Fisker says he wanted to create a car that combines the best of both worlds: the performance and excitement of a sports car with the comfort and practicality of a luxury sedan.
A New Kind of Convertible
The Fisker Ronin is not your typical convertible. It features a carbon fiber hardtop that can fold away in seconds, transforming the car from a sleek coupe to an open-air cruiser. The roof also has a glass panel that can be tinted or cleared at the touch of a button, allowing the driver to adjust the amount of light and heat entering the cabin.
But what makes the Fisker Ronin truly unique are its four butterfly doors, which open upwards and outwards to provide easy access to the spacious interior. The rear doors are shorter than the front ones, but they still allow enough room for passengers to enter and exit comfortably. Fisker claims that the Ronin is the world's first four-door, five-seat hardtop convertible, and we can't think of any other car that matches this description.
