NEW VIDEO: Henry Catchpole takes a look at the new BMW i8, and evaluates whether hybrid and electric cars really are the future of the performance car: bit.ly/1wA3vPo What are your thoughts on the subject?

I don't get the point with fully electric cars, as your just moving the co2 from the cars till the power plants.. And then we have the batteries themselves which is a horrible business, that transmit a ton of co2 into the atmosphere... Hydrogen cars on ther hand, is the future.

spekhugger Not all the energy has to come from coal. Plus burning coal is much more efficient overall than refining and burning petrol. Seriously, this argument is the new "if humans came from apes, why are there still apes?". Both show a completely misunderstanding of the facts and both are simply wrong

Finally another GREAT video coming from EVO! Love the build-up process, the length of each sequence and the fact that you really provide your authoritative opinion on this hot topic. Well done!

Followed EVO in print from the 1st issue and still have it , by far the best reviews period.

Great job Henry, that was an epic review. Sheds some new light on the hybrid and electric cars that is looking more and more likely to fully replace all vehicles one day. In sports cars there will likely be for a long time still an engine combined with an electric motor, while normal everyday cars are probably heading more in the direction of fully electric. Still, we can enjoy motoring with an engine probably for as long as i'm alive anyway but one day the change will have to take place and it doesn't have to be a bad thing. Motors still has a place in cars as long as there's oil left, but this way we can cut down our consumption of it and make the petrol and diesel powered cars survive longer combined with "new" tech.

Really cool review. Kudos EVO. One of your best and certainly one of the BEST BMW i8 reviews. Another reason I love you guys so much. Keep it up!!!

***** Thanks!. I am really very happy with the i8 and Protonic Blue is PERFECT of the i8

Excellent Henry, one of your best. I like the combination of hands on and feedback about the driving experience along side the broader perspective and analysis of the trends. I've watched all the prominent i8 reviews and this and that of CH are a cut above; really impressive. Keep up the great work. More like this please!

This may have been one of the best reviews I've seen in a LONG time. I mean everything from editing to narration to presentation. Also the Renault Twizy is kind of a funny little thing. xD

This was true automotive journalism at its finest! Definitely the best piece I've seen in a very long time, and I'm including Top Gear in that list. Congratulations, and, from what i see in other comments, you have our approval to come with more of these. Simply stunning work.

Another great review(s) by Henry. I like the way that they had the forsight to record each of the seperate reviews in conjunction with one another. I haven't seen anyone else do this yet.

That was better than recent offerings from Drive, Top Gear and the like. Nice doc, this along with the excellent Auction video featuring Harry shows that Evo creates content for those who love cars but at the same time exposing us to other things in a concise and informative way. Thanks Henry!

great film...love the build up to the i8 review- gives the viewer good perspective of how impressive the i8 is. Thanks...keep up the great work!

this is one of the best videos on Evo channel so far...Henry Catchpole,you know that you have one of the gratest jobs ever...aand you are doing everything right,keep up the good work.

Wow this was absolutely amazing! Enjoyed so much watching it, EVO did a wonderful job. This guy so informative but doesnt making it boring. He even makes reversing sound interesting lol Great Job, this actually made me change my mind even more about hybrids.

Fantastic video, Henry Catchpole is becoming one of my favorite people to watch talk about cars. Keep it up EVO!

This video turned out to be a lot more educational than I was expecting. Good job EVO!

Simply stellar mini doc...I personally would love to see many more of these on different genres of cars new and olds just a joy to experience. Clean, concise and I formative.thanks as always EVO team

Very interesting video ! I like the fact that you mix history with different tests ! I want more ! :)

Amazing car, makes me feel a bit giddy being in this era of tech and advances. Cracking review by Henry as well, very informative, reminds me of the older episodes of Top Gear, when Clarkson & Co. actually gave a toss about cars. More please :)

Best i8 review by miles. Even beats Chris Harris' vid!

2:57 You almost made me spit out my Ramen. The tiny bits of humor are always appreciated.

Henry, I loved this video, very cinematic. I subscribed yesterday and I'll be keeping my eye on EVO!

I can't help but commemorate the video editing and cinematic of this video, absolutely brilliant.

Finally a major car channel lets people know that electric cars have been around since the beginning!

Very nice resume of what is now available. We're at the very begining of this !

Wow. I can't put my finger in why exacly, but IMO, This is one of the best put together videos Evo, or any other of the Auto channels, have ever done.

Brilliant video, any chance you could make the magazine app available in the Dubai App Store?

Love this channel and everything about evo. Keep it up guys.

Henry, EVO, this was amazing and your absolute best work to date. Thank you for telling the truth and letting everyone know that the future is not to be feared or loathed. Good on you and keep up your great work.

A superb video, very professional yet relaxed presentation style, really enjoyable, thank you.

Brilliant piece, so refreshing to watch some positivity about such an exciting development in motoring. I drove my first EV this week and was totally sold - a combustion car seems instantly antiquated. Thanks guys for a great video.

Very nice video. Thank you very much for posting. Best wishes

Exceptional video. Excellent work.

Great video. Keep them coming!

Fantastic film, incredible to watch, visually and informatively, and more would be welcome. Great job.

Wow EVO, this was an absolute pleasure to watch. Thank you.

Great work Henry Catchpole! Thanks a lot for 14m32s of enjoyment.

Loved this video. Gave me a whole new appreciation for the i8!

Same here! I used to be skeptical about the i8, but after doing a bit of research, I fell in love with it

Can I just say, one the best car reviews I've seen in a while.

Thanks for a great primer on these innovative rides. Your team produces some of the most engaging films and your willingness to experiment is exciting.

Benjamin Rice Not at all...I try to drive the Porsche at least once a day, otherwise I write off the day as a net loss. I just like when established technologies get edged out for the better. And it's exciting to see that so many of these efforts don't sacrifice performance and fun.

Henry, keep up the excellent work!! This was beautifully made, especially the topic of moving into the future of motoring. @EVO, this presentation is the definition of online motoring journalism.

@EVO The into to this was spectacularly written. Lovely video as always.

Great video. It would be interesting to see more detail about where these cars are built and the design, materials and technology employed in their manufacturing processes.

Another great EVO video! Like the retrospective style. i8 very clever, like the full fat electric torque fill, quiet through towns / villages / traffic jams! Clever carbon tube. But it's about as much character as last years washing machine (anything trying to hard be "the future" is in danger of dating paradoxically) Put all that tech into a 911 and you've got the perfect EVO car! Not long to wait I imagine, 991 gen2?

overall wonderful and thoughtfully executed film. it was thoroughly enjoyed!

Great video! I hope you will post more documentaries soon!

Quality video guys! I really enjoyed watching it.

One of your best videos! Third only to the Caterham Snow Driving and the Boxster GTS one

Best Evo vid yet. Yes more like this please!

fantastic, comprehensive video. great work.

Thank you so much, I've enjoyed this video with pleasure. It's been a while since I've watched quality content such as this.

I sat in a i8 the other day the interior is beautiful & the car is even more beautiful

another great video from EVO! applause :D

Brilliantly done video. More like this please!

Great video and so much to look forward to. I have owned M3's for the last 7 years but cant wait for the next hybrid sports cars and what they will bring.

Wonderful review! Best review of the i8 yet.

I appreciate EVO. But REALLY enjoy Henry's reviews. Some quality in his voice and quirky real look

Such a great review and preview of what is to come in the future of motoring. Bravo Evo

Thank you... that was great! You guys are my go to channel now that Drive has alienated me with that pay channel mess. -- Keep up the good work and thanks again!

One of your greatest pieces Henry. Thanks for that.

A different and refreshing review. Thanks!

Good video, nice format and well presented.

I've been reading Evo magazine religiously since issue no5. I love it because I have fuel pumping through my veins; it's all for the thrill of driving. I expected not to enjoy this video talking appraising a 'hybrid'... Hybrids are the enemy after all. Aren't they? But instead I find myself really intrigued; I could see myself really wanting one of these!

Great job buddy, excellent review.

Excellent piece and beautifully photographed in Scotland too.

Great video style! Keep'm coming!

Love the comparison with the CGT! Have to agree 100%... Thanks for the fantastic video.

Brilliant doco Henry. Loved it. "Please sir, can I have some more?"

Thank you EVO. This is sooo much more than an i8 review :)

Make more of these vids!!! This was cool

Great episode. Good work Henry!

Beautiful car. I love where we are heading with cars and hope I too can soon have my own place among the hybrid/ev manufacturers.

Great video, very nice automotive journalism!

Great job, Henry Catchpole! Do more of them... e.g. the history of 911s, maybe drive all of them really hard, from F-model to 991:) Like the story in the magazine. Also loved the story about V8 Ferraris, 308 to 458. You didn't film a video of these comparisons, did you?

fantastic stuff, loved it, please do more! would love to see a history of bmw M, or AMG

Make more videos!!! They're all so brilliant

How does this only have 150,000 views? I thought it'd be at least 1,000,000

Great film keep up the great work

Great video. In depth and entertaining.

Brilliant contribution. Not just because of the i8, but in general a great pro-electric cars piece. Excited to see what the future brings.

You guys are killing it. Keep up the good work.

Great vid! Production on these EVO mini-films is getting better and better all the time, I have to say. Also, although he was already very good, Mr. Catchpole's presenting has gotten much better over time. He speaks a little louder now, so I can actually hear him clearly, and with better diction. I'm sure it's down to becoming more comfortable with the medium, but it genuinely seems like he's just having a spirited conversation with me, the viewer now. But what about the Car? Personally, I've never been a big fan of BMW's. I've always respected them but never really lusted after one. However, this i8 and the new i3 though are phenomenal. I love that you can hoon around in a great looking comfortable sports car and still feel responsible in regards to fuel use/global warming/noise pollution etc. Don't get me wrong, I still love Ferrari's and Lambos and loud, growling, screeching supercars- but now you can have fun everyday in an i8 and save the wailing banshee for maybe the weekend?

Brilliant video. So glad we got Catchpole for this one. I trust his opinion because of his love of sevens and the true sportscars in the world. Way to be wide-minded and enjoy somethings new.

Beautiful video and I am very excited about these new generation of hybrids actually.

Really mature, considered film. Really enjoyed it. It's a good format for subjects like this, and similar EVO articles, like 'the future of Motorsport'.

Terrific piece Henry... While I'm a petrol-head without any doubt, pieces like this spark a bit of excitement toward the future of motorcars... Well done!

great video, I really enjoyed the commentary

Really amazing video. Congrats!

Excellent review. Very well done.

Great review! Cheers

Epic video Henry, really good :)

Beautiful video! Well done.

Excellent video EVO! ! !

Beautiful documentary! Made me rethink electric cars... The future might not that bad after all!

Incredible. Never have I wanted a hybrid more

Another great video by Henry & EVO. Really hope they don't forget about the hydrogen fuel cell cars as the future of motoring though.

amazing review ! I`m impressed.

Great video :) very interesting ! thanks

Very nice piece, enjoyed

Wow, what a great video. Make more like it. I'm not bothered which subjects. Maybe prewar design? Not sure.
