BMW i8 Specs
BMW has been notorious for producing cars with big engines, but the eco-friendly hybrid electric BMW i8 has given a whole new definition to BMW’s “sheer driving pleasure.”
The combination of engine and motor provide the i8 with split personalities: it can run only on electricity, as a zippy hybrid, or with both powertrains teamed together as a genuine sports car. It is a “through-the-road” hybrid; each propulsion mode is linked together via software, but they’re not mechanically connected even when they are working together.
Let’s explore the full BMW i8 specs for each year of the coupe and roadster versions:
