    The BMW i3 is a cool little electric hatchback -- but it's not worth $50,000. Today I'm reviewing the i3 to show you why it isn't worth what BMW is charging -- and I'm going to show you all the quirks and features of this i3 with the range extender.

      it indeed is a very cool city car, but tbh i suggest that people get the range extended version when looking to buy one since you can really use that 2 cylinder "generator" in case you want to go on road trips, i find it very fascinating how it is possible to go on long roadtrips in this car with the generator if it does actually like charge the battery as you go along when its low

    The contact patch depends on the diameter of the wheel but not on the width but up to a limit I think, so for example if for a 200wide 20” wheel it’s 50x180mm 900sqm if you use a 150 it will be like 60x145 so 870sqmm. So the larger wheel diameter helps grip and reduces rolling resistance but you still have better grip with wider and smaller tires

And you can drive in bus lanes (which are also everywhere). And ferries are free (which are also everywhere). And public parking is free. And public charging is free.

    15:20 You have to pull it harder, it can be moved. It can either be inside the center console, in front of the console (like in the video) or in front of the console at an angle. In theory you could purchase extra ones and have a total of 6 cupholders in the car. Two could be mounted at an angle beside where the cup holder in the video is, one could be in the centre console and then you have the 3 fixed ones that cannot be moved (one up front, two between the rear seats)

    This is a perfect first driver car. Find a used one for 10-15k in good shape and its great. It should last a long time, they can't get too far from home, it won't motivate them to drive like an idiot, it doesn't have enough room for too many friends. It is a zippy little car that requires little to no maintenance and has ultra low operaring costs. It just needs to cost 1/3 what it does new.
