sorry but that smooth stop feature is GENIUS! Who hasnt tried to do that manually feathering the brake at a red light?! love it!
I currently own a Mazda CX-5. So I'm not interested in another crossover. But I absolutely am interested in the i3 EV coming out next year depending on its 0-60 performance. It's got the looks, it's got the range, and then some, now I just need more details on the driving performance.
Highway range still poor.
Why so expensive for a car that Rory showed still has a few faults. Admittedly no car is perfect. The worst being it can’t park straight in a bay. Don’t like the centre display design. Sorry wouldn’t be convinced to consider buying one, even if I could afford it.
No physical buttons and a shape that looks like a stretched 80s BMW…hard pass…
Bm v not dobbel you
1:25 im pretty sure it was the fockewulf which made the bmw, sadly they couldnt stay in bussiness.
Part of that billions, buying opinions!
Peugeot
Perfect! except the Chinese unorthodox battery inside.
I struggle to see how this advances ev motoring. Huge, heavy battery and from other reviews has poor efficiency. What were bmw thinking. It’s like adding a huge fuel tank rather than fixing the issue ~ efficiency
I cant be the only one to find this car incredibly ugly and plasticky inside…right?
Amazing they have the self park set to steer when stationary which is nuts and should never be done: it's very poor driving that loads the steering rack and ball joints and scrubs the tyres. Just the tiniest bit of creep reduces all of this substantially.
Great review: always love Rory's stuff.
Have to say, the car looks excellent in black: looking forward to seeing one in the flesh.
i3 owner btw.
Why all cars UI looks so laggy aside from Tesla like Tesla is the only one that is smooth lol
I can explain the beauty of this car in one word “ ugly “
Yo the front looks good
8:23 😂😂
It's far from perfect. Who would dream of having this car many years ago. Far from sleek and it is a government covid 19 purchase…. be part of the sheep and go electric but don't think doing this will make you environmentally friendly. The factories to make these plus all the charging and electric resources have created more problems to the environment and the issue with disposing th batteries as well. Oh for the financial side…buy electric on pcp otherwise buy it outright and you will loose half your earnings in one year- exaggeration here- and issues such as an electric motor issue with no warranty on this car cost £6k to replace each side at an independent and £10k at a dealer….yeh….buy one good purchase!
This thing is hideous
Much better exterior than the new 3 series.
The deathtrap door handles are way too much of a safety risk to even consider buying this car.
