A group of people deliberately engineered the cars behave as they do, dozens of people would have "Signed Off" the designs, the internal testing and the whole manufacturing process and nobody thought :

all the tests are bobbins anyway as they do not even close to represent real world experience.
BMW i8 - test figures 135 mpg
BMW i8 - real world figures 30 mpg
