Hopefully. All BMW's stop like hell so why would the i8 be any different?
It really comes down to weight and tires. Most brakes have the ability to lock up tires under hat braking, so it really comes down to how well the car can manage what it's given. In this case, it's working with four relatively small contact patches. I don't know the ins and outs of how suspension geometry and ABS tuning plays into it, but the aim is to balance those four patches to eke out as much available grip as possible.
