Why it matters
The Atlantic was Fisker Automotive's planned second model: a midsize, extended-range plug-in sedan shown in April 2012 as a more affordable companion to the Karma. The 2012 coverage gives no firm production timetable, so the car is known mainly from its unveiling and the plans for its plant.

History
Fisker showed the Atlantic at the 2012 New York Auto Show. It had been known as Project Nina before the reveal, and it was aimed at the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
The Atlantic was to be built at a former General Motors plant in Wilmington, Delaware, which Fisker had bought with a Department of Energy loan guarantee. After Fisker missed milestones for the plant, the DOE stopped releasing loan money.
The planned powertrain used two electric motors on the rear axle, fed by a lithium-ion battery, with a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine as a generator. No official specifications for the generator engine had been released when the car was shown.
