The BMW i8 at a glance

The BMW i8 is a unique blend of drama, efficiency and performance. Launched in the UK in 2014, it broke the mould for sports cars by combining a lightweight carbon-fibre body with plug-in hybrid power. A facelift in 2018 added a Roadster convertible and improved battery range. Production wrapped up in 2020, but the i8 remains a striking sight on British roads. Unlike rivals like the Audi R8 or Porsche 911, the i8’s hybrid set-up delivers quiet, electric-only city driving alongside exciting bursts of petrol power. The i8’s looks are pure concept car, with butterfly doors, a sweeping roofline and clever details everywhere. Standard kit is generous – expect leather seats, advanced navigation and reminders that this is truly a next-gen BMW.

Pros

  • Icon - tickFuturistic design
  • Icon - tickLow running costs – for the class
  • Icon - tickElectric drive for city commutes

Cons

  • Icon - crossLimited rear seat space
  • Icon - crossPricier repairs than regular BMWs
  • Icon - crossFirm ride, with some road noise

Hire Purchase (HP)

HP is a finance plan that allows you to spread the cost of the car by making monthly payments over an agreed term.

You make higher monthly payments than a Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) agreement, so that when you come to the end of the agreement you'll own the car.

Unlike PCP, there are no limits on mileage.

HP could be right for you if want to own the car at the end of the agreement, without the need to make a larger final payment.

  • What are the key safety features of the BMW i8?

    The BMW i8 is built with a lightweight but strong carbon-fibre structure, and comes with a full suite of airbags, ABS, stability and traction control as standard. Parking sensors and a head-up display also help minimise distractions. Advanced driver tech like surround-view cameras was available as an option.

  • What engine options are available with the BMW i8?

    Every BMW i8 uses a plug-in hybrid drive system – a 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine pairs with a powerful electric motor, creating four-wheel drive. All UK i8s blend both power sources, with around 374hp depending on the year.

  • What are the standard technology and infotainment features in the BMW i8?

    All BMW i8s are well-equipped. Expect climate control, professional navigation, DAB radio, Bluetooth, parking sensors, heated electric seats and a digital driver display. Later models added Apple CarPlay, head-up display and upgraded Harman Kardon sound as options.

  • What is the fuel consumption of the BMW i8?

    Officially, early BMW i8s claim up to 134.5mpg, later dropping to 128.4mpg. Real-world driving typically means 40-50mpg as a hybrid. The car can drive up to 20-34 miles on electric power alone between charges, especially useful for city journeys.

  • What should I check when buying a used BMW i8?

    Be sure the plug-in charger and battery pack are working, and that the carbon-fibre body has no unusual repairs. Look for full BMW service history and battery warranty details. To cover all bases, a professional check, such as The AA Vehicle Inspection, is wise.

  • Are BMW i8 cars reliable?

    Owner surveys and expert reviews rate the i8 above average for reliability among sports cars, thanks to its robust BMW hybrid system. The battery has a long warranty, but as with all high-tech cars, repairs can be costly, so careful maintenance matters.
