BMW I8

The most important new supercar of the last decade hasn’t been a Ferrari or Lamborghini, it has been the BMW i8. The German manufacturer created not only a stunning looking two-door coupe, but one that has a state-of-the-art environmentally sensitive power system too. If you hire a BMW i8, you’ll discover that its mix of electric and diesel power produces performance to rival Ferraris. It can reach 60mph from a standstill in less than five seconds yet the sensational-looking i8 can return up to 134mpg. It has demonstrated that eco-motoring can be sexy too.
