Favoured by forward-thinking professionals and design-conscious early adopters who treat their car as a statement of intent as much as a mode of transport. Motivated by innovation and image; values being ahead of the curve without sacrificing sophistication. Urban-based, career-driven, and drawn to technology, architecture, and considered luxury experiences. Likely enthusiastic and aspirational; will champion the design and concept whilst candidly acknowledging real-world limitations.

The scissor doors weren't just a styling flourish — they were engineered to allow easier entry and exit in tight car park spaces, making a supercar silhouette genuinely practical for everyday life.

Despite producing a combined 357bhp, the i8 was so aerodynamically efficient that it could return over 130mpg on the official cycle — a figure that genuinely baffled the motoring press when it was first announced.

The carbon fibre passenger cell at its core was produced in a purpose-built facility in Moses Lake, Washington, powered entirely by hydroelectric energy — meaning the bones of the car were built with a remarkably low carbon footprint long before it ever reached a road.
