Normally less then a month and my i3 will be delivered, counting the days now. I would like to be prepared for winter tho. However it seems there are 2 types of wintertyres (blizzak ?), what would you belgians recommend ? Or is the winter tyre overkill. On the otherhand i would like to have an extra set of tyres in case of emergency (quick flat tyre replacement).

Hi,
It has been a long time since I last asked a question to my fellow Belgian owners

It seems that other markets (France, Netherlands, USA, etc) are receiving regular software updates.
In the case of Belgium, as far as I know, my car (delivered late January 2014) has only received one update, though I haven't spotted any difference after this update was made.

Any feedback from the others?

Cheers

actually as i had scheduled my wintertire change for next thursday 23 october, i was told there were 3 updates waiting for my REX, one of them could take more than 1 day so i would be provided a replacement car for 2 days

It would be interesting to know if your regenerative braking will be the same, i have seen people complain about there braking being not that strong anymore after upgrade and installed winter tyres.

There seem to be more updates needed than software updates only...
A part of the drivetrain is replaced because of possible excessive wear.
