Both public and trade visitors to the 2018 Detroit Auto Show show will have their first opportunity to experience the updated BMW i8 Coupe and new BMW X2.

Making its debut also at the show, the BMW i8 Roadster First Edition is limited to a production run of 200 units. The special-edition models will be among the first examples of the open-top plug-in hybrid sports car built and delivered to customers around the world.

All of the body paint finishes and interior designs offered for the new BMW i8 Coupe and new BMW i8 Roadster are also available for the special edition. These include the newly introduced exterior colors E-Copper metallic and Donington Grey metallic.

The Carpo interior design package (included as standard) comprises full leather trim, which is available for the new BMW i8 Roadster exclusively in the colour combination Ivory White/Black.

The first major auto show of the year opens its doors on January 13th for the press and five days later for the general public.
