Heralding BMW’s entry into electric and hybrid mobility, the German automaker’s i-series kicked off with the i8. What a way to start; here was a low-slung two-seat sports car that looked straight out of a sci-fi movie. The i8 featured groundbreaking styling by Benoit Jacob, and a surprising choice of engine – mid-mounted of course. Naturally, there are quite a few fans of the i8, and we’ve got a pleasant 9,000-mile 2014 BMW i8 for one lucky person to grab. So, if you’ve been lusting after an i8, drop whatever you’re doing right now and call us pronto.
Exterior and Interior
BMW offered the i8 in a variety of colors, some of them quite prominent. But, we must say, we prefer the black coat worn by this 2014 BMW i8. It gives the space-age design an element of restraint, while still allowing its jaw-dropping prowess to be retained. The car features 20-inch lightweight alloy wheels, and LED headlamps with cornering lamps too. The interior of this 2014 BMW i8 is a 2+2, but the rear seats are most suited for small children, or to be used for extra luggage space if you prefer. You’ve got beige leather seats, with the front seats being power-adjustable and heated too. Then, you’ll find blue seat belts, an Anthracite headliner, and a leather engine cover. Furthermore, this car comes with the Storage Package, Active Driving Assistant, Park Distance Control, Ambient Lighting, and Heads-up Display options. You’ve also got dual-zone automatic climate control with air conditioning, a digital gauge cluster, and a Harman/Kardon premium sound system. There’s even an alarm, to keep this car safe from opportunistic thieves.
Engine
Now for some surprises. Yes, the engine of this 2014 BMW i8 is mid-mounted, but it’s not what you’d expect. Is it a V8? A straight six? A lively four? None of these. Instead, it’s a 1.5-liter turbocharged and intercooled three-cylinder unit! What? A 3-cylinder in a BMW? Well, yes, but it powers the rear wheels through a 6-speed automatic transmission. Meanwhile, the front wheels are also driven, this time by an electric motor. Hence, the system provides a total of 357hp and 420lb-ft. Therefore, a 0-60 time of 4.5 seconds is possible, as is an electronically-limited top speed of 155mph. The car can also drive along purely on electric power for up to 34 miles, at speeds of up to 75mph. The battery is charged via the engine, via regenerative braking, or the included charger. The total range of the i8 when fully fueled and charged is said to be 330 miles. But, since this is a gasoline hybrid, you can fuel it up at any gas station! Bye bye range anxiety, hello grand touring!
