The new BMW i8 Roadster combine the high-torque acceleration
of the electric motor on the front axle with the power of the combustion engine
on the rear axle, which is efficiently brought to the road by a six-speed
automatic transmission. Although the new BMW i8 Roadster can drive purely
electrically, the particular attraction lies in the combination of both
engines, which play to their advantages and complement each other perfectly. The
BMW i8 Roadster plug-in hybrid sports cars deliver exceptional dynamic ability
as well as efficiency. The exterior colors
E-Copper and Crystal White Pearl Effect have been exclusively developed for the
new BMW i8 Roadster.
