This increase comes despite past improvements in the efficiency of transport and is broadly in line with increases in the level of economic activity as measured by gross domestic product (GDP), as well as increases in demand for both freight and passenger transport. The share of renewable energy in transport in the EU rose from 6.7%

The purchase funds for Fisker would in theory go directly to the DOE since the government agency loaned the auto company a large sum of money before it stopped production more than a year ago. Delays in production and last-minute design changes drove the price to build a Karma much higher than the company could sell them for.
