宝马将在巴黎车展发布一款i8 Protonic Dark Silver限量版车型。与此前发布的车型一样，新车也采用了“Protonic”（质子）涂装，包括标配的质子蓝。车身涂装很亮，特别是红色在阳光照耀下非常耀眼。另外，该车还提供标准版i8的所有选装件。不过，该车动力系统与标准版无异，包括一台中置1.5升三缸涡轮引擎，功率170千瓦/228马力，搭配一台前置电机，功率96千瓦/129马力，综合功率266千瓦/357马力。车辆0-96公里/小时加速时间4秒（百公里加速时间4.4秒），最高时速250公里。该车的生产受时间限制而非数量限制，将从今年12月开始生产，但订单要从明年才开始受理。宝马还未公布该车价格。

 

Limited-run BMW i8 Protonic Dark Silver Edition to debut in Paris

BMW has started launching special edition versions of the i8 to give the range a bit of a kick. First came the Protonic Red Edition, launched at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year. And now BMW has announced the follow up Protonic Dark Silver Edition, which will debut at the Paris Motor Show next month.

 

Like its predecessor, the Dark Silver Edition features a highly reflective ‘Protonic’ paint finish - Protonic Blue is available from the standard color chart. And they are extremely bright - the red in particular is absolutely searing in bright sunlight.

 

As for the rest of the car, BMW says buyers can “tailor their car entirely to their own vision.” In other words, the normal i8 options catalogue is available in full.

 

The standard powertrain package remains in place, too. A mid-mounted, 1.5-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder engine borrowed from the Mini Cooper serves up 228 horsepower (170 kilowatts), while the accompanying front-mounted electric motors makes 129 horsepower (96 kilowatts), a total system output of 357 horsepower (266 kilowatts).

 

Mash the gas and the i8 will sprint from 0 to 60 miles-per-hour in under four seconds (0 to 100 kilometers-per-hour in 4.4 seconds) and run on to a limited top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h).
