The BMW i8 plug-in hybrid sports car, has been crowned UK Car of the Year for 2015.
Fighting stiff competition to the title of Performance Car of the Year, the four-seat i8 also won the overall vote. As BMW’s ‘I’ car programme charges on, the BMW i3 was awarded UK Car of the Year in 2014. The BMW i8 also took the Top Gear Car of the year award.
The UK is Europe’s biggest market for i8 sales with 450 registrations so far and a lengthy none month waiting list. The smaller BMW i3 has sales of 1,860 cars sold in the UK since its November 2013 launch.
“The BMW i8 is the culmination of many years of investment, hard work and commitment to creating the world’s most progressive sports car. With our first two BMW i vehicles – the i3 and i8 – being named consecutive UK Car of the Year winners, our technology strategy is being recognised as truly game changing for the car industry.”Graeme Grieve, BMW UK CEO
