BMW expects to sell about 100,000 i-series plugin vehicles annually by 2020, according to a news report by Left Lane News.
Earlier this year, the company suggested it would wait to gauge demand before adding new models to the ‘i’ lineup, however executives now suggest electric-vehicle production will have to ramp as part of a broader strategy to comply with tightening emissions regulations.
The i8 hybrid sports car is also expected to be met with strong demand, and BMW anticipates a wait list of at least six months when the series flagship goes on sale in June.
