AKRON, Ohio -- As the first production models of the new 2012 Fisker Karma EVer (electric vehicle, extended range) hybrid are delivered to their new owners, they'll be rolling exclusively on Goodyear's Eagle F1 Supercar tires.

The Fisker Karma EVer is the world's first premium electric vehicle with extended range and the "embodiment of an environmentally conscious vehicle with passion, style and performance," according to Fisker.

The four-door, four-passenger Karma is a series plug-in hybrid that combines the zero-emission benefits of an all-electric car with the full driving range of a conventional car. It will offer a responsible alternative to those in the market for traditional full-size, fully equipped luxury performance cars, Fisker says .

Because of its large 22-inch wheels and the high torque output of its electric motor, Goodyear worked with Fisker to develop high-performance tires specifically for the Karma EVer. The 2012 Karma EVer is equipped with custom Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar tires in sizes 285/35/R22 (rear) and 255/35/R22 (front).

Fisker is one of several automakers that have selected Goodyear tires as original equipment for its fuel-efficient vehicles. The Toyota Prius, Scion iQ, Chevrolet Volt, Chevrolet Cruze Eco and Ford Fusion S also come standard with Goodyear tires. Traditionally, more new vehicles in North America are equipped with Goodyear tires than any other brand, according to the company.
