    How does your i3 Lease compare to my Volt lease

    One of the challenging aspects of cross-shopping EVs these days is that some manufacturers really seem to be subsidizing the leases while others don't or don't as much. It can sort of skew what is a "good deal" relative to other EVs. Anyway, we all know the early i3 purchases leases were...

    Anyone know when the i3 will be in Dallas for test drives?

    I found out they had a couple making their way between our 4 DFW dealers last month during our annual ice storm for 4 days, but missed it! The Dallas auto show is in about 4 weeks...minimally, I am hoping they will have one there to sit in. I have driven an ELR, but that's beyond what I'm...

    Is the i3 more like a coupe in practice than a 4 door sedan?

    I know there aren't too many owners on here yet, but I'm wondering if folks are finding the i3 with its rear-hinged clamshell doors feels more like a 4seat coupe than 4 door sedan in daily life? If you've ever owned a coupe you know the extra bit of hassle it is with regard to letting folks in...
