by BMW in the News on November 3, 2011

The German automaker calls its i3 and i8 Concepts the cars of the future and will offer a sneak preview in New York on Nov. 9.

Both cars feature carbon fiber bodies. The i8 is the successor to the Vision Efficient Dynamics concept and features flip-up doors, while the i3 is the concept previously known as the “megacity vehicle” and has rear doors that open toward the back.

The official debut for both will be at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Nov. 16 and 17 and will include a presentation on the BMW i brand.

BMW says it created the i brand to meet future mobility needs in the world’s most densely populated urban centers.
