The BMW i8 embodies a future-oriented sports car with the latest, revolutionary technology. The rear axle of the plug-in hybrid is driven by a 3-cylinder engine that only has a displacement of 1.5 liters, but produces a whopping 170 kW (231 hp) of power and a torque of 320 Nm under the pressure of two turbochargers. The front axle draws its power from an electric motor that delivers 96 kW (131 hp). Thanks to intelligent energy management, the interaction of both motor types is optimally coordinated. Result: real sports car performance and this with fuel consumption and emissions values ​​of a small car. The i8 accelerates from 0 to 100 in just 4.4 seconds and reaches BMW's usual top speed of 250 km/h.

William F. ★★★★★

The model captures the i8's sleek, futuristic design perfectly, and I love how the hybrid drivetrain is represented in the build. Everything fits together cleanly—it's a solid little set for any car enthusiast.

Adam R. ★★★★★

The engine detail on this model set is impressively accurate; you can actually see the 1.5-liter 3-cylinder layout on the rear axle. It’s a really satisfying build for anyone who admires the i8’s hybrid design.

Madison A. ★★★★☆

The rear axle setup with the 1.5-liter three-cylinder is faithfully captured, which made me pause and appreciate the engineering. Assembly took a bit longer than I expected, but the final look is sharp and worth the patience.
