We at Bert Smith BMW know that the all-new BMW i8 is a hybrid of unrivaled luxury in German performance, efficiency, handling, ride, braking, exterior design, interior trim, connectivity, audio, instrumentation, comfort, convenience, safety, security and warranty.
With so much to love about the i8, and even with the choice between coupe and roadster, it’s hard to know where to begin. Available in six colors, the i8 utilizes a two-speed automatic transmission for an AC (alternate current) synchronous electric motor. It comes with an estimated 485 pound-feet of torque for monstrous acceleration, a generous 0.27 coefficient drag for aerodynamic driving and utilizes both an 11.1 gallon tank and a lithium-ion battery.
A low center of gravity and a curb weight of 3,501 pounds ensures a smooth ride across a nearly perfectly balanced weight ratio. Its 6-speed automatic transmission helps to push out 227 horsepower at only 6,000 revolutions per minute. With a zero-to-sixty of just 4.2 seconds, the i8 knows how to have a lot of fun!
