GMballistic Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 134.5mpg. That's just insane. Very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Yeah but realistically it will get 40 mpg. Its a bit like that new Mitsubishi off-roader that claims similar MPG. They only get that as the current test is 7 miles long so the battery can do most of the work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) Yeah but realistically it will get 40 mpg. Its a bit like that new Mitsubishi off-roader that claims similar MPG. They only get that as the current test is 7 miles long so the battery can do most of the work Well obviously I didn't really think it would do that mpg ~ hell I doubt there is a car maker in the world who's mpg claims are true under normal circumstances but still..

Payco Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I drive past this place 3 times a week on my way to work. They have some serious metal. You couldnt walk in there with less than a £100k and buy anything... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but I think its a bit of a joke they can get away with saying 140mpg. It doesn't do anywhere near half of that. There has been some complaints by other manufactures so the test is up for review now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinjj Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 is that price tag a joke? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Bradders- Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 nope, there are people who will pay it, BM only bought out a set amount so people who had first dibs bought them before they were even made and now selling them, there isn't really a set price tag for them.

Ponsonby Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 is that price tag a joke? They are just shy of £100K so I think they got carried away with their 9's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BMW i8 is the second in a range of ‘i’ models from BMW, with the first being the BMW i3 supermini, an electric car which is also available as a range-extender hybrid. The i8 is the latest addition to the line-up and a different proposition altogether. It's a £100,000 plug-in hybrid coupe with the kind of looks you only normally see from outlandish concept cars. In its construction, though, there are similarities with the BMW i3 – it uses the same carbon fibre-reinforced plastic body on an aluminium chassis construction.
