Oct. 25, 2009 The News Jornal reported that Fisker Automotive http://karma.fiskerautomotive.com/ may soon announce that they will be building what they call the "worlds first luxury plug-in hybrid electric vehicle at the old Boxwood Road Gm Plant.

According to the company website American automaker Fisker Automotive was recently approved for a conditional loan of $528 million by the Department of Energy (DOE). The next generation Karma will be built entirely in the U.S

It looks like they plan on making 75,000-100,000 of these cars a year and the resulting vehicle will sell for about $39,900 after federal tax credits.

With 50 miles of electric range and more than 350 miles of total range, the Fisker Karma with its proprietary Q-DRIVE powertrain developed by Quantum Technologies, will have the potential for a fuel economy of over 100 miles per gallon (MPG) on extended drives. Fisker Karma has a top speed of 125mph and 0-60 comes in less than 6 seconds.

This could mean thousands of jobs New Castle County which saw 2 large auto plants close recently. Lets keep our fingers crossed it all comes together!

Once in awhile you run across a great new place to have lunch and you want to share it with everyone. Its called the Sugar Rush Cafe located at 17 N. Chapel St., Newark, De. 19711

What makes it so special? When you take a owner from 2 upscale resturants and open a cool eatery only good things can happen!

Check out some of the menu

Arizona caesar salad ($7.95), that spices up plain grilled chicken

Norwegian salmon salad ($8.55), a bed of greens topped with smoked salmon, roasted red peppers, red onion, tomatoes, Parmesan cheese and a balsamic vinaigrette.

artichoke prosciutto ($8.25), prosciutto and provolone with tomato, marinated artichokes and balsamic dressing.

B Spicy panini ($7.55).Spicy chicken, plum tomatoes, roasted red peppers, onions, blue cheese crumbles and a homemade cajun sauce came in between two pieces of crisply grilled bread.

maple smoked ham sandwich ($7.95)was another simple, but delicious sandwich. The roll was filled with generous amounts of ham, bold asiago cheese and honey mustard.

There are also baked potatoes on the menu, and we tried the buffalo chicken potato ($4.95). The spud was loaded with spicy chicken, tomato and cheddar cheese, and was a welcome departure from the average lunch.

Don't forget to check out the cakes and pies, with a name like Sugar Rush you are sure to find something pleasing in the desert case!
