About the BMW i8
The BMW i8 ran from 2012-2020 and was part of BMW’s first foray into electrics, under their i group of cars. A hybrid-electric powertrain, the BMW i8 was a hybrid sports car for the modern world. Its futuristic design, compared with innovative technology, led it to being one of the most highly sought-after sports cars in the mid-2010s.
By its own right, the BMW i8 is impressively eco-friendly with a 42g/km CO2 output, pushing it into a low tax band and therefore making it a more affordable daily supercar driver. With no direct comparison thanks to its unique drivetrain, its price and prestige sit it closer to the Aston Martin Vantage and Porsche 911.
For those wanting an introduction into the world of electric supercars, a BMW i8 is a popular choice. This car has the punch of a petrol engine combined with the high torque of a battery powered car. The futuristic design is eye-catching, and its performance specs make it an enjoyable drive.
