- petewailes 11y agoExpanding on that a little - it's not entirely accurate. BMW are shifting to electric powertrains, but not entirely electric; they're building hybrids too. Since they've not yet said exactly what the split of those will be, it's nothing to get particularly excited over yet. The i8 isn't exactly a shining example of MPG friendliness in real world conditions (high 20's to mid 30's), and even the best hybrids still have a long way to go until they can be considered clean in terms of emissions in build and lifetime operation.
