I agree. Do you remember that they originally had it as hybrid electric diesel before US market had them switch to hybrid gas electric? If BMW could fit a fully electric motor with 60-100kwH battery that would be amazing.
We have the 8 series now so I think the i8 should stay its green course, hope bmw contiues to advance it and brings nice i5, i3 etc
