Fisker claims the EMotion will cost about the same price as the Model S which means something between $68,500 and $150,000.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Obviuosly, Fisker is aiming to beat Elon Musk in his own game with superior battery technology. Fisker has developed a\u00a0innovative battery\u00a0technology using graphene which is much better than Tesla\u2019s lithium-ion batteries.The graphene batteries have been developed by Fisker Nanotech, a joint venture between Fisker Inc. and Nanotech Energy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Emotion will feature a low profile and and quite aggressive looking front fascia, curved windshield.
