BMW i3 Electric with Enhanced Batteries [Electric]

Model: BMW i3 MK 1 - Years 2013-2022

Here is the new version of the BMW i3 electric, equipped with next-generation batteries. It has a power output of 25 kW. The dimensions, tyre specifications, and aesthetics remain unchanged. What has changed is the interior of the car; the new battery now holds 50% more (approximately 33 kWh), translating to a range of around 186 miles. It reaches a maximum speed of 75 mph. According to tests conducted by manufacturers, as shown in the video, the car's consumption has improved compared to the previous version. Performance can be compared to that of a highly efficient engine using 10 litres of fuel. Mechanical solutions have also improved, providing the car with better characteristics (for example, increased steering angle at the front wheels). Finally, the vehicle is easy to drive, smooth, and free of roll thanks to the rear-wheel drive and new suspension.
