2018 BMW i8 Spyder Convertible Spied

 

The vehicle is due on sale in 2018, meaning we should see it arrive as a 2019 model. Its arrival will trail that of an updated version of the i8 coupe BMW will introduce later this year.

The car is more of a targa than a true convertible, with its roof likely to be a removable panel that needs to be manually stowed away.

The i8 Spyder, along with the updated i8 coupe, will maintain the current turbocharged 1.5-liter inline-3, 6-speed auto, and electric motor combo. However, the setup’s lame 362 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque output is expected to be boosted.
