BMW has made the worlds first and only petrol-electric hybrid supercar. The dynamic BMW i8 Coup provides unconditional driving pleasure as far as the road goes.Its about as far from the usual BMW template as you can get. The engine is a tiny 1.5-litre turbo three-cylinder, mounted transversely ahead of the rear wheels. Tiny, but mighty: it produces 231bhp. Theres a 131bhp electric motor up front and a big plug-in electric battery to give it serious potency. All this is packed into a carbon fibre tub and wrapped in stunning thermoplastic bodywork; it looks like a concept car thats escaped from the motor show stage. Radical? You bet.The BMW i8 Coup is futuristic right down to the last detail. The most striking feature: the lightweight carbon-fibre gull wing doors. The impressive stream flow design optimises airflow and creates exceptional aerodynamics.The interior reflects the dynamic lines of the exterior design with the controls arranged intuitively ensuring maximum driver orientation and clarity. In the dark, the LED interior lighting ensures a high-quality ambience.Drive ahead and leave practically nothing behind - thanks to the intelligent energy management of the BMW i8 Coup. It coordinates the interaction between the electric motor and the battery with the combustion engine always geared towards maximum performance with minimum consumption. This creates a powerful plug-in hybrid system with enormous efficiency.Charging or refuelling are both are easy to handle. At home, you can easily charge your BMW i8 with the BMW i Charging Station or the charging cable. On the road, youll find an ever-growing number of public charging stations that you can easily use with the ChargeNow card. Find out where the next charging station is with the ChargeNow app or, alternatively, directly in your BMW i8 Coup: for example, via the fully-networked BMW ConnectedDrive services for navigation.Wherever you go the BMW i8 Coup is prepared for anything thanks to numerous assistance systems. For example, during wet driving, the brakes are cleaned from time to time by the dry brake function to minimise moisture and all without noticeable brake pressure. In bad weather conditions, Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) makes starting easier by reducing wheel spin and ensuring maximum traction. Once driving, the BMW xDrive all-wheel drive system takes over to provide excellent grip in any situation. The system is activated in hybrid mode and distributes the drive forces of both types of drive variably and according to the situation to all four wheels.The special LifeDrive architecture allows the BMW i8 to distribute its weight optimally across both axles. The electric motor in the front, the petrol engine at the rear and, as the consolidating element, the so-called energy tunnel with built-in high-voltage batteries runs along the centre console through the car. The hybrid technology with the battery at the bottom of the bodyshell combined with the lightweight carbon module above it ensures ideal weight distribution and outstanding, extremely sporty handling.While our service department specializes in BMW, we sell and service all makes and models.
