BMW i8, first view and engine sound. Incredible.

Mini-review of the incredible i8 from BMW. It might look like a concept car, but this is an exquisitely engineered masterpiece and I simply have to have it.

it's the speakers in the exhaust that make it sound like that.!

[sonikku]

The engine noise comes from the speakers. They sound like V6 or V12 engines. A 3 cylinder sounds like it though, after watching somebody drive a 218i.

Well the interior sound is actually fake

[poohkie]

5 years later, look how much this car has depreciated and price is now less than half for a second hand car.

[BigRedCatFTW]

The engine sound is actually partially from the speakers as well

[yurrien]

its a 100% electic car with a speaker in it for the V8 sound....

[cmoreno]

I sold mine and bought a 2016 rs7

but my 1982 ford fiesta I still have haha twin turbocharged homies

[turtletitan]

The car is a 3 Cylinder, but the interior soundtrack is a V6 sound. Lol.

[Cuenta-rybm]

why is quiet and then sounds the v8? is this an electric-normal car? can you put it normally? i mean, with the fuel burning in the pistons? is awesome. i tough it was quiet like a prius but you can active the normal engine and it sound like an m3 e92! awesome car...

[hitman]

funny when he said sound good ...Because I'm pretty sure he doesn't know than the sound is a fake sound piping through the speakers of the car and the outside sound is a external speaker which make a fake sound as well!

No thank you, I'll keep my Mazda RX8 - horrible fuel consumption, drinks oil, loud and fast enough.

[mitchelrichardson]

5:15.  OMG, you drove in Kiln Farm. that where I used to work.

[poohkie]

Its 3 cylinders that sound is fakeee, its from the

[dinnerque]

Haha cool but with a fake exaust? Would i buy this?

[borinvlogs]

It is incredible that the i8 can now be purchased for less than 40k on a used market. A hell lot of a sexy looking car for the money.

[CheekyCultured]

Jeremy Clarkson made a mistake, that's unusual .

[bruhnt]

The sounds are played from the speakers, to get the real sound rev it and there is the worst sound coming out of a car

[TravelsChases]

[Stig]

[Livekernalevent]
