I haven't mentioned the BMW i8 for a long period of time, so here is the high time to do it! The reason for it is the renderings of the i8 published by Sonny Lin, former senior designer for BMW DesignWorks. If we compare to the concept we will see shorter wheelbase and clipped length. And if we take into consideration the substantial use of carbon fiber reinforced plastic in the vehicle's chassis we will understand what weight savings can we expect.

And let's revise others main features - 1.5-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder engine which gives i8 for about 400 horsepower, accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 4.9 seconds and can be pure-electric, gasoline or a medley of both.
