Undernourished in the raw power stakes compared to the Honda, but the i8"s ability to make hybrid motoring feel impossibly exotic is beguiling."You"d almost never believe it was an eco-chomping hybrid, doing an amazing impression of a 340bhp straight six rather than a little turbo triple. It doesn"t quite feel 911-fast, despite a 4.4-second 0-62mph time, because high-rev drama and violence is lacking. But it"s still ruddy quick, and traction is fantastic."Read the review
