It's been around seven years since the Fisker Karma was a still a thing, and Henrik Fisker appears to be back in business with another company. With Fisker Automotive bankrupt since 2013 and the Fisker Karma revived by a Chinese company under a different name, Henrik founded Fisker Inc. in 2016 and set out to develop an all-electric sports car. Less than two years have passed since then, and Fisker unveiled his first automobile in years. It's called the EMotion, it's gorgeous to look at, and it has the coolest set of four doors ever created.

We've seen Lambos and McLarens with butterfly doors and Teslas with falcon doors, but the EMotion is probably the first four-door to bring together both designs. It's also the first production four-door to have unconventional doors (the Model X has regular doors up front). It's like Fisker took the front half of a Lamborghini and welded it to the rear half of a Model X, and then redesigned the body until it came up with the hottest four-door coupe I've seen in years.

Butterfly doors go a long way back. While the Lamborghini Countach is probably the most iconic classic car to sport vertical doors, they were actually used for the first time by Alfa Romeo on the 33 Stradale, launched in 1967. Tesla's falcon doors aren't very original either. Mercedes first used them on a production model, the 300 SL "Gullwing," in 1954 and since then we've seen them on a handful of cars, including the Bricklin SV-1 and the DeLorean DMC-12. What I'm trying to say is that Fisker Inc. took two classic design cues and gave them a modern twist on a four-door car. Okay, so maybe it's not exactly revolutionary, but it's the hottest thing since the Lambo Countach. Actually, it's that four-door Lamborghini we've been dreaming of since forever.
