IRVINE, Calif., Jan. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The Karma Revero, a luxury plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, has been named Green Car Journal's 2018 "Luxury Green Car of the Year" today at the Washington Auto Show.
The vehicle's combination of iconic design and innovative electric plug-in hybrid drive technology contributed to the judges' decision to choose the Karma Revero as the winner. Finalists for the competition included the BMW 530e, Cadillac CT6 Plug-In, Lexus LS 500H and Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid.
"Karma's Revero stands out among its premium-class competitors, generating more attention than any model we have ever tested," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car Journal and GreenCarJournal.com. "It also generates its own electricity, supplementing on-board batteries and delivering 50 fun-filled miles of zero-emission driving, with a total electric range of about 300 miles. There is no range anxiety experienced in our deserving 2018 Luxury Green Car of the Year™."
