Awesome! thanks for the clarification. I just gotta adjust my range anxiety. Appreciate it.

so if the 'drivetrain' doesn't turn the generator then there's no charge to the high voltage battery which could lead to a dead car? damm. so I gotta get it fixed. I was hoping that I could bypass the REx and just live off the electric battery.

NICE! How much of a hard drive does the i3? can we store a good amount of music?

Thank you all for the responses. I turned off the radio by pressing MODE. if you press it a couple of times.

Hello, I was wondering how can you tell if the 12v battery is dying? Today I tried to turn on the car and it would not get into gear. dashboard would light up. check engine light came on. I did see a YouTube video about how someone else's i3 died and he had a feeling it was the battery. I'm...
