Our reviews give you two perspectives. Jakub takes the perspective of the car enthusiast, while Yuri represents the interests of the general consumer. You won't find details about engine compression ratios here, instead you'll have real world opinions on what it's like to drive and own cars.

Hey guys, i found Yuri's IG but does Jakub has an Instagram because i couldn't find it! Oh and yeah it's a supercar but i feel like it's too different to be the modern day prowler, though it does kinda have the same backstory

Yes super car looks, not super car performance BUT still adequate.

[@MultiMartoo]

ahahhaha just what i thought

[@jblinklu9998]

I think BMW should have made this car fully electric instead of hybrid. Imagine having the power and torque of a tesla model s with the looks of the i8.

[@saverlater123]

Honestly, a car with this design deserves to be fully electric. None of that half assed 3 cylinder hybrid bullshit

[@OJAbrey]

Yeah... Pricing wise this is pretty close to a model S p100D. The model S is almost twice as powerful. As much as I LOVE the way this car looks, there's no way I could justify going with this car over the competition.

[@ajlee6933]

That was Elon Musk’s dream, not BMW’s. Electric cars are cool, but they have limited usage. You can really take the i8 out and enjoy the drive without worrying about where’s the next charging station.

[@OJAbrey]

@@ajlee6933 this may have been the case 10 years ago, but frankly the range on Tesla's high end battery packs rivals or exceeds many internal combustion engines cars these days. The new 200kwh battery they're debuting in the 2020 Roadster, for example, has an estimated thousand km range (plus or minus some depending on driving habits and terrain). Even the current 100kwh battery in the current generation model S is good for 530km... That's about 130 more than I get on a tank in my BMW 335 (commuting). The only real drawback right now is charge times vs refueling times... But with a Tesla super charger those times have shrunk dramatically, and with the ranges provided by 100+kWh battery, you would only need to worry about that on longer road trips.

[@ajlee6933]

OJ Abrey commuting to work and back in the city is ideal for Tesla ownership. My experience with the Tesla Model X wasn’t that great. Time was the major issue. My colleagues and I decided to borrow the Model X because of its really cool Auto Pilot feature. The trip was a 3 hour road trip from Atlanta, GA to Spartanburg, SC (159 miles). We departed fully charged (289 miles) and arrived at the supercharger 12 miles away from our destination with 120 miles remaining. We decided that we didn’t want to wait for the Model X to recharge so that we could get back to Atlanta that evening, so we called an Uber to take us the remaining 12 miles to our destination. Now I understand some people are really patient, but it was a big inconvenience for us to wait at a hotel for a recharge.

[@AF93510]

not a supercar, but more of a "statement" car, and an engineering/styling proof-of-concept for BMW

[@ajlee6933]

Angelo F finally someone gets it. People act as if BMW produced this 3 cylinder car to compete with 10 & 12 cylinder supercars.

[@JustinAbroad]

They should of put a Turbo v6 in it with maybe 600 hp 650tq and it would be an impressive car

[@centrallifestyle3650]

Tidwell bmw don’t do v6 engines. They make inline 6 cylinder engines. And you’re right, they should have put their 6 cylinder engine in instead of that 3 cylinder engine from MINI. Combined with the electric motors, it would have been a powerful performance car. Some even argue that BMW M Division should stick its V8 engine in it to make it i8M or something like that.

[@centrallifestyle3650]

AJ Lee that’s not the point. It’s BMW’s most expensive car, supposed to be the brand’s halo car, and designed to look like a supercar. Inevitably it’ll be compared with other brands’ halo cars (AMG GT, Porsche 911, Audi R8 etc). Even BMW now know they made a mistake using a 3 cylinder engine. They’re looking to use a very modified and very turbocharged 4 cylinder engine and/or 6 cylinder performance engine in the next generation of i8 (or whatever new name it’ll be called). Together with electric motor, it’ll make about 500hp in 4 cylinder base form putting it in very high-end sportscar territory. In 6 cylinder engine form, even more horsepower to put it in lower-end supercar territory. If M division gets gold of it and sticks in their V8, then it’ll firmly be in supercar territory. BMW can easily do this and it’ll sell.

[@HiddenWen]

It's like an electric supercar.

[@ajlee6933]

The i8 has always been misunderstood, and the blame goes to its “supercar” styling. BMW has never marketed the i8 as a supercar. That’s because they know it isn’t one. Instead they call it “iPerformance,” which is just a fancy way of saying a fast hybrid. Which is what the i8 is, a very stylish plug in hybrid.

[@Phailox]

that might be. Doesnt change the fact that its priced as one. It makes sense to not only compare it, but expect the performance that comes with that pricetag.

[@philsbruno]

I guess that price tag is more for the looks and the point that it is the most fancy hybrid. But I agree that most people expect more more performance. And a lot of people are desperate for a real sports car/super car from BMW, which they wished the i8 to be.

[@ajlee6933]

Phailox People aren’t comparing the i8 to a supercar because of its price. It gets compared to supercars because of the way it looks. i8 buyers purchased based off looks alone. They’re aware that this isn’t a supercar, but it’s the cheapest way to look like one.

[@Phailox]

@aj i said that, that might be the case, + some more... just read the other comment. Either way its an awkward car which could as easily have been 80k as 150k, and it isnt even a fast hybrid. Its about as fast as a golf type r

[@Sebastianvalen]

Phailox yea for 80k it's a good deal. You could actually get a slightly used one with like 8k miles for less than 80k

Had an i8 roadster since Aug, love the way it shoots you out of corners, that coupled with the grip , handling makes it very quick on fun roads. That coupled with serene mode makes it quite something special. Winter with it in Portugal and folks have clapped and cheered in all over. I don't think any other car can match it for such a range of experience. Once you been swathed in the carbon fibre and leather cockpit you won't want less. Fit and finish is fab.

Woot! Hell yeah I rewind satellite video! I had been meaning to message you guys for far to long and when I finally did this week via fb you already knew. :) Loved your how to video Yuri. More Fun Things about Time Shift: - Setting up the smart favorites means it always starts from the beginning of the song when you switch to your preset. - If you mute (press the power button) or take a phone call it will pause the satellite radio station and then play it when you un mute or hang up the call. History of Time Shift in BMW: - Time Sift has been around since 2015 BUT wasn't on by default. (was in my 2015 328i) - Smart Presets is a more recent feature (is in my 2019 X3) Your work keeps getting more and more fantastic!

[@jjj4888]

When I consider cool factor, I think about what would happen if I pulled up to my school in a car. Most people might give the NSX a glance, maybe start looking if I revved it. The i8 would have people flocking to it like moths to a lamp (had to throw that in there). So I think the i8 is cooler to non-car people, but the NSX is more respected by people who know it
