2018 BMW i8 – Grey Blue

Overview

Three pistons combustion internally, a dash of electrons, lots of aluminum, and carbon fiber are the i8’s ingredients. This coupe’s eye-catching style is straight out of a sci-fi flick. Its 369-hp hybrid power train drives all four wheels, and EV range was upped to 18 miles.

There are few cars that make a stronger first impression than the BMW i8 . A plug-in hybrid with exterior styling that wouldn’t look out of place in a sci-fi movie, the i8 is one of a kind. Its mix of efficient technology, sporting credentials, and astronomical price tag leave it with few natural competitors. The Tesla Model S sedan and the Acura NSX, with their electrified power trains and sky-high base prices, are the closest matches. Statement-making alternatives include the conventionally powered McLaren 570S or top Porsche 911 variants.
