    New Owner Charging Questions

    Adding a charging unit to your garage is an expense to be sure. But I have not regretted it for a moment. In fact I totally love that I can just plug in my car with the ease of plugging in my iPhone. I dread it when I have to gas up my wife's car. If I never enter a smelly, disgusting gas...

    2019 New i3s purchase advice request

    I live in California. I am waiting for $2,500 from the state. I will be applying this month for $1,500 from my county, Monterey. My utility, PG&E, already sent me a check for $800. Depending upon where you live, you might want to check whether your state and county and utility provide these...

    What is your attitudes and preferences toward EVs?

    I did the survey. I think it is legitimate. I didn't feel they were being overly intrusive. There was one question I couldn't get the answer to work right, so I just skipped it. I thought a few of the answer choices were not well thought out. But that's their issue not mine.

    Integration of Apple CarPlay with iDrive

    Thanks for that. I got my information from the person at the dealership who is considered their Genius. What I described is what she described to me. Interestingly when I raised the issue with the person from BMW, I got no push back. That may suggest a lack of knowledge on his part or I don't...

    Integration of Apple CarPlay with iDrive

    Recently I had a call from someone at BMW. Because I am a new customer, they wanted to get my feedback on the i3. I had lots of good things to say about the car, of course, but I did tell the guy that BMW really needs to focus on range because for many buyers and leasers that is the deal maker...

    Interior

    I love the interior of my i3, and it certainly played a role in my decision making. I like how it looks, and I appreciate the environmentally-friendly choices BMW made. To me this goes hand in hand with the quality and reliability of the vehicle. I've now had my car for five weeks, and it is a...

    Final Production date for 94Ah?

    I can't give you an exact date, but I got an email from my salesman on November 3, 2018, that my 2019 model had been built in Leipzig.

    Integration of Apple CarPlay with iDrive

    I was excited that Apple CarPlay was one of the features that came with my new i3. I had used it with our other car and had assumed that BMW would provide the same level of integration. It was only after I got the i3 that I discovered that in reality you have a choice of using iDrive 6.0 or...

    Range Question

    I'm new to the i3, so I am asking a question the answer of which may be obvious to everyone else. The range on the 2019 is officially listed as 154 miles, but when my car is fully charged it says 177 miles. My question is this: what then is the car's range? Obviously enough driving experience...

    Flat towing i3 "4 wheels down" behind rv

    This discussion prompts a question. Am I to infer from what has been written so far that an i3 should not go through a carwash?
