BMW i8 Concept:

the sports car of the future

Dynamic, progressive, innovative – the BMW i8 Concept is a symbol of progress,

combining the performance of a sports car with outstanding efficiency.

T h e B M W i 8 C o n c e p t combines the performance of a sports car with exceptional fuel economy. Its innovative

eDrive technology sees the front axle powered by a highly dynamic electric motor, while the rear axle is driven by a 220hp

(164kW) three-cylinder TwinPower Turbo engine with 300Nm of torque. The 0-62mph time is achieved in less than ive

seconds with a restricted top speed of 155mph, while fuel consumption is under three litres per 100 kilometers (approx.

94mpg). Thanks to a large lithium-ion battery that can be charged from a domestic power supply, the BMW i8 Concept

covers a range of approximately 20 miles on electric power alone. That means the majority of short, day-to-day journeys

can be completed with zero emissions, given that the average distance driven by UK cars is less than 25 miles a day.

A s w e l l a s v i s i o n a r y v e h i c l e s , BMW i also offers innovative mobility

services that make life on the road that much easier. Take the MyCityWay service,

which provides comprehensive practical information on numerous cities (see page

64) and the parkatmyHouse service, available throughout the UK, through which

private parking spaces in cities can be rented out and booked.

T h e B M W i 3 will be the i rst all-electric production car to come

from the BMW Group. The BMW i3 Concept features the eDrive

technology package which comprises a 170hp (125kW) electric

motor developed by BMW, pioneering lithium-ion batteries and intel-

ligent motor management, all of which makes for an extremely agile

driving experience with 250Nm of torque on tap and an everyday

range of 80-100 miles. There is also the option of using a small, smooth-

running, quiet petrol engine to charge the batteries during a journey.

This range extender acts as a kind of “spare can” that allows the car

to exceed the standard range. An extremely rigid carbon passenger

cell guarantees high crash safety levels and, in conjunction with a

light, spacious, lounge-like interior, makes the BMW i3 Concept the

perfect car for driving in big cities. A Parking Assistant and Trafi c

Jam Assistant make for even more relaxed driving in urban trafi c. The

car is capable of automatic parallel parking, while in stop-go trafi c it

benei ts from active steering input that allows it to “go with the ﬂ ow”.

The BMW i3 Concept further features a new intelligent safety system

that warns the driver if there is a risk of colliding with a pedestrian or

another vehicle. With its electric drive and sustainable production

methods – drawing on recycled materials and renewable resources

– the BMW i3 Concept has a life cycle global warming potential at least

a third lower than that of a comparable combustion-engined vehicle.
