Starting price: $43,395

The BMW i3 is one of the top luxury hybrids on the market today. The car features a very stubby style and uses a ‘game-changing’ carbon-fiber/aluminum structure, and is a slightly more affordable version of the i8. The auto can go from zero to 60 MPH in just 6.5 seconds, and has a top overall speed of 92 MPH. The i3 has above average handling capability due to the low center of gravity in the auto’s design. The auto sees a maximum range of 81 miles per charge, and can go from a dead batter to full charge in just three hours of being connected to a standard 220-volt outlet. Consumers can also choose to purchase a range extending gasoline engine when buying the auto new that helps deliver a total range of 150 miles. The stock drivetrain in the i3 is rated at 170 horsepower, and the auto sees a gas mileage equivalent of 127 MPGe (city) and 107 MPGe (highway).
