 It was this realization, and a fateful meeting with Alan Niedzwieki of Quantum Fuel Systems, that led Henrik Fisker and Barnard Koehler to start a joint venture called Fisker Automotive, whereby Fisker Coachbuild would provide design and Quantum would provide the Hybrid-EV technology to create a new range-extended Electric Vehicle, which would ultimately be named the Fisker Karma.Fisker Coachbuild continues to provide design services for automotive and other applications.As Fisker Coachbuild turned its attention to the new EV market, the company stopped further marketing of the Latigo.
