Those from Teamspeed managed to take some pictures of famous concept during some tests or shooting that took place in Abu Dhabi. This remains a mystery for now.
It is possible that the serial version of the Bavarian bolide to look exactly like in this picture. Munich Trademark fan rejoices seeing for the first time the possible serial version of the concept not covered by camouflage. The most obvious change are the doors that are totally transparent, they increase the car's futuristic character. Also, the hood has been redesigned.
Passed days, in the auto press it was circulating a rumor that the series variant of Vision might be called i8.
BMW Vision EfficientDynamics/i8 is hidden under the hood a 1.5-liter turbodiesel engine with three cylinders. It is accompanied by two electric motors. Hybrid drive train is able to deliver 356 horsepower and 800 Nm of torque. Thus, the car can reach 100 km/h in 4.8 seconds and a top speed of 250 km/h (155 km/h). I feel a little disappointed, because looking at it, I feel that i am dealing with a much faster car. i8's consumption is just 3.76 litres/100km (63 mpg in US).
However, is possible that the car from image to be another concept.
Serial version of BMW's Vision EfficientDynamics/i8 is scheduled to debut in 2013. Model price is set at 173,725 euros (231 985 $).
