Just wondering if anyone has heard anything about BMWs car sharing program called "Alternate Mobility Program". In the earlier press releases from about a year ago BMW seemed to make a big deal about being able to temporarily trade in your I3 at your local BMW dealer for a BMW ICE car to use on occasional long trips. The idea was that you would get an allotment of trade-in days ( I think they suggested 10 days per year) and that you would be able to borrow the BMW ICE car at no cost. I asked a BMW representative a few weeks ago and she said the program was in effect, but she didn't know any details. The salesman I'm working with to buy my I3 has even less information.
The BMW website is pretty vague saying only:
Alternate Mobility Program
For those occasional long-distance trips, BMW i is developing customized mobility solutions for your longer excursions. Whether you're planning a long weekend getaway or a road trip vacation, BMW i will have you covered in style.
*Planned to be available in 2014.
(it's on the BMW I3 website under the "360 electric" tab and then under the "flexible mobility tab")
It would be pretty handy to be able to borrow a regular BMW for free to use on those occasional long trips. Does anyone have any more information
