All cars should come with upwards opening doors. They look better and they make the cars look better. Mercedes did it with the gull wing doors on the 300 SL. Lamborghini has done scissor doors it on all its V12 supercars. Koenigsegg has raptor doors on its Agera. More recently Tesla has done Falcon wing doors on its Model X. All great looking cars. Now Fisker has gone one-up on all of them with this the EMotion electric vehicle.

Four butterfly doors! Count them. Four.

What did I tell you about cars looking better? But looks aside, the new EMotion sedan is one of the most exciting new electric cars all set to be launched. While Tesla’s Model S has been sought after by buyers, Fisker is packing the Emotion with loads of tech to give Tesla a fair and square fight.
