2013 Frankfurt Motor Show has already brought us so many concepts and new vehicles. Now adding to the list is BMW i8, X5 eDrive, X5 and 4 Series Coupe, but the i8 is the one product which attracted the maximum eye balls.
The fully hybrid BMW i8 gets highly turbocharged 1.5-litre BMW twinpower turbo petrol engine with intelligent energy management. It has carbon fibre reinforced plastic passenger cell, which makes it an extremely light weight vehicle. Despite being a plugin hybrid vehicle, it has been claimed to touch the 0-100kmph in mere 4.5 seconds. It's a 2+2 seater vehicle and has the aluminium drive module.
Our consulting editor Rachit Hirani is at the event to bring you the live updates on all the unvelings, so stay tuned for more updates. Cheers!
