Now this is a hybrid I definitely want to own. A nice change from all the hybrid crap you get from japan.

not really into hybrid cars all the while but this is the one I wanna own! Sleek and cool design..

They claim that the i8 can be driven for 35km on electric power alone at speeds of up to 120kph, and recharge it for 3 hours from an ordinary plug socket. From my point of view, I don't think it's a practical choice to drive that in singapore with the high cost of COE prices. Could get a better high performance models with that price tag and singapore still lacks of charging infrastructure, especially in public spaces and housing.

Singapore is both an ideal and ill-suited environment for EVs. The average Singaporean driver covers about 55km a day, or 20,000km annually. Singapore itself is about 40km long. But it still lacks the charging infrastructure, especially in public spaces and housing.

The i8 won't be coming.

But I'm looking forward to the i3, which with a range extender engine, boosts the car’s range to 300km.

According to PML, the i3 will be available in SG next year. The expected cost of the i3 will be around the same price “as a 3 Series". Sounds attractive to me!

From what i gather, the i8 will definitely be coming but not too sure when exactly.

I am sure there are many out there who could afford it and it is such a looker. Cant wait try it out actually.
