Fisker Automotive Selects Deeza Chassis Parts for Karma Hybrid’s Outer Tie Rod Ends

Creating the product for Fisker was a two-year design process, Deeza says.

TOTOWA, N.J. – Fisker Automotive has selected Deeza Chassis to produce outer tie rod ends for the Karma Hybrid, the world’s first premium luxury electric vehicle with extended range.  

"We are extremely proud to be working with Fisker to manufacture for the Fisker Karma Hybrid’s outer tie rod ends," said Gokhan Kuru, president, Deeza Chassis Parts. "It was a two-year design, development and testing process under Fisker’s superior engineering and management team to take the concept of Karma’s Outer Tie Rod Ends and finally produce a quality product to an exceptionally well thought and designed next generation hybrid electric car.”

Kuru added that there will be other OEM projects for other car manufacturers that Deeza will participate in, in the future.

“Our determination on developing and manufacturing quality chassis parts will continue in both European and North American markets," he said.  

A significant number of pre-orders for the Karma have already been placed around the world. Fisker also is developing a higher-volume line of premium electric vehicles with extended range, scheduled to start production in the fourth quarter of 2012.
