No rattles of squeaks at all in my i3, not even after 30.000km and 21 months. I love to take the i3 for the daily commute where the adaptive CC works wonders. I have not driven any car where the adaptive CC works so well in a trafic jam, not even in my 528. And I enjoy the spacious and...

Just a quick update: 31.000km / 21 months and still flawless. I'm wondering if I ever have to visit the garage again before the first regulatory check (APK in NL) ;)

Mine was replaced during a recent visit to the dealer. They said it is a known problem. I have now just removed it because I only use DAB and don't notice any reception problem.

Ik heb alles telefonisch geregeld!

There are 435 i3 BEV registrered in the Netherlands as of end of March. Of which 89 in March.

To get back to your original post: the right answer is probably C. I've noticed that with cold weather (close to or below zero) I lose anywhere between 2% and 6% in range when not pre-conditioned while connected to the mains.

Yes, they can be pre-conditioned, this gives you 6-8% more range on a cold day. But the battery has to be kept warm while driving. This costs energy as well as the heating of the car interrior even while I have the heatpump option, which reduces energy consumption for heating. On one of the...

Voor NL: ik heb een verzekering afgesloten bij de ANWB. All-in dekking voor € 274! Welliswaar met maximum schadevrije jaren en extra korting ivm langjarig (goud) lidmaatschap. Dit is de goedkoopste die ik gezien heb voor mijn 'bijna full option' i3 (€46k).

Ah, OK, that I didn't know. Then it should be possible to charge at any 32A AC point even without the DC option. Apologies for the confusion :oops:

I've done 5,500km now in my i3 and have an average of 15.4kWh/100km. I do 3-4 times a week a 64km one-way to work with about 55km of that on the highway. I usually tend to stay around 115km when possible, but average speed during rush hour rarely gets beyond 85km :cry: Over the past weeks I've...

Ik heb zelf een Wallb-E eco aangeschaft en een offerte gevraagd voor installatie. Dat was rond de EUR 380 voor 15 meter kabel, een extra aardlekautomaat en de hele boel aansluiten. Uiteindelijk toch besloten om het zelf te doen :D De Wallb-E eco kost EUR 530 en aan onderdelen (grondkabel...

De hoofdzekering bepaald niet met hoeveel ampère je laad, dat doet de interface elektronica in de laadpaal (mode 3) of jouw auto als je een mode 1 laadaansluiting gebruikt. De standaard laadkabel die bij de i3 geleverd wordt is een mode 1 kabel en dan moet je de laadstroom in het 'laden' menu...

The i3 will work on almost all 22kW/32A AC charging outlets. But it only uses 1 phase. I do this quite often. Only if you have the DC/fastcharging option you can actually charge at 7.4kW on an AC connection. Otherwise the max. is 3.6kW (16A) If you have access to a CCS type DC charger (there...

I've done a short swap with a Tesla owner earlier this week (and S85), both with those ugly yellow Dutch licence plates :mrgreen: The speed and acceleration of the Tesla are impressive, and it does boast 3 times the range of my i3 BEV. But compared to the Tesla the i3 feels so much more as a...
