Pretty good car
I have had my i3 for a little over a year now. For the most part, I do like it. However, I will be on the lookout for a different car soon. PROS Fun to drive, nice stereo, comfortable seats, no stopping at gas stations, and storage is great! CONS Limits how far I can travel due to limited range. Back seat is challenging to get in and out of and it gets HOT due to no air vents back there. Any maintenance is EXPENSIVE! (4 new tires cost me $1400) In one year, I have had to take my car into the shop three times for repairs. If you are looking for a fun electric 2nd car, this is a nice choice. If you are looking for a new single car, you may want to look somewhere else. You may be disappointed once you have it a while.

Most fun car I have ever owned....
Not much more to say than the title. The care feels spacious on the inside. Drives so snappy and with a little practice the break pedal is hardly touched. My advice to BMW: Come out with an i4 by just stretching the i3 a bit wider and longer....

IS NOT A LEMON IS A LEMONADE
Problem after problem and dealer know not much about. Luchy for them that they stop production. Tire last 25/30000 mile $180 each. Back doors when you open and a car is park next you get very challenger get out. Warning light came on without a reason. Electric motor move back and for forth, replace support bushing, only last for 2 weeks. And more. And more, very disappointed for a car that has a BMW logo. 1 star is to much, i can't leave blank.

Practical Car
The car is a little quirky, but overall I love it. Suicide doors are nice in some circumstances and in others not so much. Kids have a little step to get over when going in and out but overall I feel they are very safe in it since the rear seats are so low. The car shelters them. Drives fantastic and has the basic automotive accoutrements for a local commuter. Most folks don't need a local commuter to go more than a 140 miles in a day. This thing is great for that. I don't need something that goes 300 miles, nor do I want that. The pricepoint is perfect for an electric, "first-timer" vehicle. It has unique tires but they last quite a while. There is no maintenance on the car! Change the break fluid and tires, and that's it. I hvae put 17,000 miles on the car. Winter is a bit of a power suck, so plan a little for that. Spring, summer, and expecially fall maximize the economy of this car. I really enjoy driving it. The power is great and it rides smooth. Regenerative braking works like it should. I don't even use the actual brake pedal anymore...my wife still can't grasp that concept. The other unique feature about this car is that it is the only car out there that is made entirely from recycled materials. It's a great little car; I think you would be surprised.
