BMW’s highly anticipated i3 is edging closer and closer to public availability. Quantifiable proof of this is that the German auto maker is giving out the first ever, journalist test rides today in Sweden. First in line to test out the fully electric BMW, with available range extender option, was Autocar and Car magazine (both UK outfits).
The first BMW i3s will be delivered to the public inNovember of this year (the 16th of November if you want to be precise and mark the date on your calendars).
Reportedly, the standard, fully electric version i3 will cost around €40,000, that is about $52,000 US dollars (and yes, that is at the higher end of previous estimates).
BMW pegs the i3′s all-electric range at 140 miles on the old LA4 US standard, which translates to about 90-95 miles on the US EPA rating system.
