During the upcoming 2016 Geneva Motor Show, BMW has something very impressive in store for its fans. The renowned German automaker is set to unveiled its i8 Protonic Red Edition car, which flaunts a superb red paintjob complemented by Frozen Grey metallic touches. Other visual highlights include “Protonic Red Edition” door sill plates as well as grey seatbelts, carbon fiber door handles, black ceramic detailing on the gear selector and unique floor mats with leather piping and red contrast stitching.
BMW has not shared too many images of this model, but what we’ve seen so far suggests that it will feature 20-inch W-spoke alloy wheels in Orbit Grey metallic and Aluminium matte. As far as power is concerned, this special edition features the same performance capabilities as its standard counterpart. It is based on the same 1.5-liter TwinPower Turbo three-cylinder engine complemented by an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery pack. This plug-in hybrid powertrain provides 357 horsepower, and it guarantees a 0 to 60 mph sprint time of just 4.2 seconds as well as a top speed of 155 mph.
