Description: Although BMW hasn't exactly been stingy with the details of the new i8 up until now, the Frankfurt Auto Show served as the venue for the car's official debut. BMW is calling it "the mos...Add Comments1
Description: Most significant is that the 1.5-liter diesel engine has been replaced by a gasoline engine with the same displacement. This allows for 80mpg for the fuel economy, although the rating in the US would ...Add Comments10
Mathew Caleb StanfieldSep 21, 2011 @Jason yeah and the fact that the imperial gallon is totally different than a US gallon too
Jason BrowerSep 14, 2011 It's funny because that not really it. The way the EPA tests cars for fuel efficiency is different than the EU. Simple as that.
Michael PalazzoSep 14, 2011 ya, not really sure why they always lower the mpgs here, the Mercedes E350 diesel in Europe gets somewhere along 70 mpg, but here its not even 30.
Alex SharpSep 14, 2011 He means, because theyre a German company, they likely used a European gallon, which is different than an American gallon. People on here schooled me on this before, hope Ive still got it right.
Nick BenzSep 14, 2011 Oh is 80 mpg too high for the americans? No mpg should be too high.
Description: This is able to offset the weight stemming from the heavy electric drive components. It also features something called PRO ECO mode, a setting that allows the driver to utilize the most energy efficie...Add Comments5
Bob ThebuilderSep 14, 2011 Saw these both in Chicago when they were shooting the commercial - the i8 looked decent :/
Shawn RobinsonSep 14, 2011 But an" I " pod/pad/phone just isnt the same without the " I "
Phillip GreeneSep 14, 2011 even you are apple it sounds stupid
Eddie FilipovicSep 14, 2011 Looks promising and numbers sound good. But I hate the iSomething name. If you're not apple, it just sounds stupid to have the "i" before the name.
Description: It's reportedly been tested in cold weather around the Arctic Circle. Whether owners will actually consider such a trip to one of the planet's most extreme weather climates is another issue,...Add Comments16
Dan RuthSep 15, 2011 Concept cars sure have come a long way.
Ferdinand Glen SaputroSep 15, 2011 This car is gonna debut in mission impossible: ghost protocol
Phillip AlexanderSep 15, 2011 Dude it says like two pages ago that production is slated for two years from now, calm down. It's not like they're claiming it will travel in time and BMW doesn't need to allocate funds for it.
Landon CombassSep 14, 2011 Okay I've been seeing pictures of this car for forever!!! WTF BMW!? all they do is release pictures of this "concept" It will NEVER be made. I saw a picture of this "concept" years ago.
Duncan GibsonSep 14, 2011 Cool look. A bit radical with the doors, but that's easily fixed
Tyler DunnSep 14, 2011 If I ever see one of these on the road ,which is highly unlikely, I will loteraly cum my pants.
Zain SheikhSep 14, 2011 @Carlos 0-60 in 4.6 Secs and you think this needs a V8.
Jesus CabralSep 14, 2011 wow this car is Really Amazing i wud buy this In a Heart-beat :) I also love the Tron kinda Look they shud of put it in the Movie IMO
Troi StoesselSep 14, 2011 @Travis. I agree - go fast and save on gas. 0-60 in 4.8 is good - I'm sure there will be upgrades to make it faster. Save the trees so we can breathe.
Travis HoodSep 14, 2011 Many people, including myself, would love to go fast without paying too much for gas.
Matt RobbinsSep 14, 2011 It's not the industry that demands it, it's the blasted governments and tree huggers.
Nate SchwanerSep 14, 2011 Carlos: this concept is slightly based on gas mileage. Not that I'm disagreeing it would be sick but a v8 just wouldn't hit the same fuel economy that the industry demands
Ydj YoungSep 14, 2011 I would buy this without thinking! Great design.
Carlos Gallego RodriguezSep 14, 2011 I like this car but it should have the twin turbo V8 from the M5
Zain SheikhSep 14, 2011 This car is a concept that can and must make it. It's been tested in snow on a track . But BMW always tends to not make stuff at the last minute ehich pisses me off
Int move well advertised.
