BMW i3 Auto Euro 6 (s/s) 5dr (Range Extender)

+HIST+2OWNER+HUGHSPEC+VAN CONVERSION+The eagle-eyed will have noticed that BMW has been marketing its i sub-brand for a long time, building up consumer awareness until the time was ripe to launch one of the two currently planned cars. That time has arrived and so has the i3 city car, which can be bought in either all-electric or range extender guises. BMW has had a mammoth task on its hands with the i3. The main difficulty has been in developing a drivetrain that fits with the company's fun-to-drive ethos as well as being energy-efficient and reliable. Equally important is the fabled range anxiety, which the Range Extender version of the i3 aims to overcome. At the time of its launch it has precious few direct rivals, with Vauxhall's Ampera much larger than the i3 and the supermini-size Renault Zoe having no range extender model. It means that this, version of the i3 can be launched as an entirely new style of mobility solution aimed squarely at urban users. Featuring a rear-mounted small-capacity two-cylinder petrol engine adapted from its normal use in a BMW motorbike, linked to a tiny fuel tank nearby, the i3 Range Extender has about double the effective range of the all-electric model, and in the absence of a recharging station it can be refuelled at any normal filling station. They both share the same batteries and final drive system buyers of the range extender get all the same zero emissions benefits, not to mention the same torque-rich driving characteristics. Our verdict on the BMW i3 Range Extender :There are good reasons why buyers would choose this version of the i3. Companies looking to lower their carbon footprint and take advantage of tax breaks linked to electric cars will be first on the waiting list, with early-adopters looking for the latest technology right behind them. Ultimately the i3 is far from what some existing BMW owners might expect, but it's excellent in its own, new way. 19in Alloy Wheels - i Light Streamline Star-Spoke Style - 427 with Mixed Tyres,5.7in Colour TFT Display - Instrument Cluster,Alarm System - Thatcham 1 with Remote Control and Engine Immobiliser,BMW Integrated Differential Transmission,BMW Navigation System,Bluetooth Hands Free with USB Audio Interface,Cabin Pre-Conditioning via iDrive or BMW i Remote App,Cruise Control with Brake Function,DSC - Dynamic Stability Control Plus,EPS - Electric Power Steering with Servotronic,Electrically Operated Parking Brake,Electronic Drive Selector Located on Steering Column to Select: Drive-Reverse-Neutral-Park,Halogen Headlights,Heat Protection Glazing with Green Tint,Interior and Exterior Mirrors with Automatic Anti-Dazzle Function,Navigation System - BMW Professional Multimedia,PDC - Park Distance Control - Rear,Park Assist,Pre-Heating of HV with Active Air Flap Control,Rear Lights - LED Integrated into Tailgate,Shark Fin Aerial,Start-Stop Button with Comfort Go Keyless Engine Start and Auto Start-Stop Deactivation Button,Steering Wheel - Leather Multifunction Two Spoke - Black with Unique BMW i Blue Accent,TPMS - Tyre Pressure Monitoring,Voice Control of Navigation and Telephone Functions,19in Alloy Wheels - i Light Streamline Star-Spoke Style - 427,6.5in Colour Display Screen,ASC - Automatic Stability Control,Airbags - Curtain Head - Front,Airbags - Front Side,Airbags - Passenger,Alarm System Thatcham 1 with Remote Control,Automatically Dimming Rear View Mirror,Bluetooth Hands Free Facility,CBC - Cornering Brake Control,DTC - Dynamic Traction Control,Electrically Operated Handbrake - Parking Brake,Headlights - Automatic Activation,Heated Windscreen Washer Jets,Navigation System - BMW Business Advanced,Start-Stop Button with Keyless Operation,TPMS - Tyre Pressure Monitoring System,Voice Control - Navigation,Voice Control - Phone,Airbags - Curtain,Cabin Temperature Preparation,Comfort Access System,Concierge Service,DC Rapid Charge Preparation,Driving Assistant Plus,Enhanced Bluetooth Telephone Preparation with USB Audio Interface and Voice Control,Internet,LED Headlights,Loudspeaker System - Harman Kardon,Media Package - BMW Professional,PDC - Park Distance Control - Front and Rear,Park Assist Package,Real Time Traffic Information,Reversing Assist Camera,Interior World Loft - Cloth-Synthetic Leather - Carum Spice Grey,19in Alloy Wheels - i BiColour Light Turbine Styling - 428
