With the 2012 Karma, Fisker Automotive presented the first true electric luxury sports sedan. The model shown in the photo sports a design applied via 3M’s new Envision vehicle wrap film. The eco-friendly wrap series features films and laminates manufactured with sustainable and biodegradable materials.

As well as vehicles, the film and laminate can be used for projects such as boat wrapping and textured wall graphics. 3M highlights the film's ability to be applied in temperature extremes, liberal repositionability, high tensile strength for faster removal, 'exceptional' clarity and compatibility with a wide range of ink technologies.
