Sniff Petrol review i3

[electricvirgin]

Just saw this and thought it might be of interest.

It seems the writer 'gets' the i3 in many ways, which is refreshing.

Sems like a good review except for the poke at the REX having a ‘scooter engine’!

Well, it does have the engine of the BMW C 600 scooter. So nothing wrong with that.
Nice report.

I thought it was a motor bike engine?

I thought it was a motor bike engine?

In the USA the same water cooled 650 cc engine is used in both the 60 hp (@7500 RPM) C 650 GT Scooter and the 50 hp (@6500 RPM) G 650 GS motorcycle.
