Announced during the Washington Auto Show’s Policy Day, the 2020 Karma Revero GT has been named the 2020 Luxury Green Car of the Year by Green Car Journal.

The vehicle was honored for its exemplary environmental performance without compromising but rather improving safety, value and style, according to the publication.

Revero GT has two electric motors driving the rear wheels, using a single-speed transmission. Its combined power output has significantly increased from 403 to 535 horsepower.

The luxury electric vehicle beat out the other 2020 Luxury Green Car of the Year finalists that included the BMW 745e, Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring, Porsche Taycan and Range Rover Evoque.

"The Karma Revero GT epitomizes what a luxury car should be in a modern age," Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car Journal and GreenCarJournal.com said in a press release. "The Revero GT features a compelling design with performance characteristics to match. Importantly, this extended-range electric sedan's ability to drive up to 80 zero-emission miles on battery power alone and 360 miles overall suits all driving needs."
