Sixteen Fisker Karma electric vehicles caught fire and burned to the ground
after being submerged by saltwater from Hurricane Sandy's storm surge.
The $100,000 cars were parked in Port Newark, N.J., prior to the storm's
arrival, according to
Jalopnik<http://updates.jalopnik.com/post/34669789863/more-than-a-dozen-fisker-karma-hybrids-caught-fire-and>.
The vehicles were submerged when Hurricane Sandy's storm surge beached the
port, flooding the luxury electric vehicles and other cars parked in the
port.
Jalopnik reported the cars "then caught fire, exploded." The website showed
several photos of what remains of the vehicles.
Fisker released a statement confirming some of its luxury vehicles were
damaged by fire at the Port of Newark, and the company said it plans to
investigate the cause of the fire as soon as it can access the area.
Fisker has struggled over the past year after a variety of problems with
the Karma model sparked questions about the car's reliability and safety.
Consumer Reports wrote a critical

of
the car after it broke down within days of being driven off the dealership
lot.
