BMW Redefines Hybrid, Sports Car with the Plug-In Power of the i8

If you ever feel like your driving needs and desires don’t fall neatly into one of the rigidly-defined auto segments, you’re not alone. BMW seems to cater to these misfits with their segment-blurring vehicles that tap into the best of many automotive worlds. What if you need the fuel economy of an electric, but you want the agility of a luxury performance car? BMW has created a voluptuous sports car hybrid that caters to your seemingly juxtaposing desires, and its name is the 2015 BMW i8.

From zero to 60 in a mere few seconds with the revolutionary pairing of a turbocharged 1.5-liter, three-cylinder with a lithium-ion battery pack, this all-wheel drive i8 offers more horsepower and torque via an intuitive automatic transmission than the 3 Series delivers.

And these impressive stats don’t even hint at all the high-tech features the luxury automaker is kicking out this model year. Check out what the i8 is offering BMW drivers:
