Art Marries Purpose: The BMW i8 Spyder Concept
What may be very recognizable from the Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol film, here’s the updated convertible variant of the BMW i8, appropriately titled the ‘spyder concept’.
In the video, you can hear the hum of it that matches the sleek body.
It’s a beautiful thing when art carries into everything.

BMW recently unveiled images of their latest BMW i8 Spyder concept car, which is the convertible version of the car Tom Cruise drove in Mission impossible 4 late last year. Unlike the coupe, the Spyder has a two-section folding roof and upward-opening doors. The interior features an 8.8-inch (22.4 cm) screen display, which BMW claims, shows “all the relevant driving information in three-dimensional, high-resolution quality.”
Inside the hood, the hybrid has both a 131 hp electric motor to drive the front wheels and a 223 hp turbocharged gas three-cylinder powering the rear wheels, which allows for front-wheel, rear-wheel, or all-wheel drive. The i8 Spyder tops out at 155 mph, goes from 0-62mph in five seconds, and most impressively, does so while maintaining an impressive 78 miles per gallon!
