BMW i8
1:13 PM
Three pistons combusting internally, a dollop of electrons and lots of aluminum and carbon fiber are the main ingredients for the i8. Its 357-hp hybrid powertrain drives all four wheels; in our testing, the i8 hit 60 mph in 3.6 seconds but averaged just 26 MPGe. The poised chassis and sharp steering are good fun, but eco-friendly tires and regenerative braking hinder performance. Familiar controls are nestled in a plush cabin and the i8’s wild, eye-catching styling looks straight out of sci-fi.
