² The BMW i3 is a battery electric vehicle requiring mains electricity for charging. WLTP electric range for the new BMW i3 Saloon model range: 503 to 562 miles. Whilst we recommend the battery is charged to 80% to help optimise the health and life of your battery, the electric range figure shown is the WLTP figure after the battery had been fully charged to 100%.

Only compare fuel consumption, CO2 and electric range figures with other cars tested to the same technical procedures. These figures may not reflect real life driving results, which will depend upon a number of factors including the starting charge of the battery, accessories fitted (post registration), variations in weather, driving styles and vehicle load.

Unmistakably sporty, from every angle.

New front, new rear, new proportions – a true icon with BMW sports saloon DNA at its core. The exterior design of the BMW i3 Saloon stands out thanks to its athletic, modern styling. The kidney grille and headlights form one cohesive, expressive statement. And the completely reinterpreted light signature makes this saloon unmistakably a BMW, even from a distance. Precise contours and a striking silhouette ensure a lasting impression.
