Not sure if this applies here but my understanding is that car companies benefit from the high MPG of electric cars which brings their average into line with US standards. The i8 has sold very well but the numbers are far too small to makeup for the development and production costs.

I've also read that the M5 V10 was likely the last of the supercar saloons.
