    @Scott, I've always been wary of hybrid cars because of the fear of battery life and replacement costs that certain motoring press have claimed for these car so can you enlighten us what is the potential lifespan of the batteries used in both the i8 and i3 and have you any idea as yet to replacement and disposal charges?

    I am aware of that but as most of the other figures are known and since this is possibly the most important concerns of owning a hybrid these key questions really need to be answered........and soon don't you think?

    Throughout the BMWi testing phase BMW are testing various solutions to determine what is right for the car , I will say that having the advantage of being in a position of having access to perhaps the industry's best Hybrid technology determines BMW's goal to change the overall perception of Alternative Drive with the BMWi cars.

    The cars are set for launch in 2013/14. Plenty of technological developments can happen during that time.
