Henrik Fisker Stepping Down as Fisker Automotive CEO

Henrik Fisker Stepping Down as Fisker Automotive CEO

In a conference call to journalists today, Henrik Fisker announced that he would be stepping down as CEO of Fisker Automotive to become the company's executive chairman. In his place, former Chrysler CEO Tom Lasorda will become CEO of Fisker Automotive. 

Henrik Fisker says that his new role will be building brand awareness for the Fisker brand in China and the Middle East. He will still be the designer of the company's cars. 

Lasorda has worked in the auto business for 32 years, mostly at General Motors and Chrysler. He joined Fisker as the vice chairman last year.

Fisker has just had a late launch for the Karma, its electric sports sedan.
