So we are long-time EV owners, having owned two Leafs and two Volts. My wife has wanted an i3 for a while but they were just too expensive. we found one this weekend that was a manufacturer buy-back shipped in from California. According to the buyback paperwork, there was some problem with the Rex making a clicking sound. The part was out of stock and the repair was going to take too long so they customer returned it. I'm fairly satisfied that there is nothing wrong with this vehicle that would make it a "lemon" or anything like that. So this one is a 2014 model.. I am not sure which "world" it is, but it loaded with a lot of high end stuff including the larger NAV screen, fast charging, Rex, heated seats, ACC, etc. It has only 3,000 miles on it! So it is basically like brand new. We paid $26,000 for it. So that's about half what a brand-new one would cost.
We did not get a user manual with this car, so we're probably going to keep coming up with questions.
One issue my wife noticed is that she can't get the car to power on when charging. So, for example, with our Leafs and Volts, if you were at a charging station and wanted to wait in the car, you could still run the climate control. This car doesn't seem to want to do that.
Does the Rex require regular or premium fuel? During my google search I've not been able to find a clear answer.
On the menus, I could not find any sort of "energy monitor" screen. On our other vehicles there is always a screen where you can see information about your trip, like how much energy you've used, miles driven, etc..
