Great review!! We are considering a BMW i3 when our leasing of a MG4 had ended. There are many cheaper cars around, but this seems like a kind of lifestyle. Lots of personality.
You should try the turn radius of a smart 453, it will run inside loops on the i3. Its kinda fun that you call the i3 a small city car, its really not small, small is a smart at 270 cm I love the smart 453, but i am actually in the process of switching to an i3S
Not from the factory, but you can retrofit i3’s with an aftermarket module to enable Android Auto (and wireless Apple CarPlay) even if yours didn’t come with it originally.
You cannot open the rear door without first opening the front. In this situation the back passengers are in a similar circumstance as those in a 2-door car.
@@MichaelDrivesOfficial ok, that's what I thought. Not great to have the doors there but be unable to open them and die burnt inside the car if ever fire happens.
@@officerockstar I don't see how it's ridiculous. It's the same for a two-door coupe as you just pointed out. Do you even know what ridiculous means ? You must have a lot of ridiculous things in your life if you find this ridiculous. It's just common sense that having no door to get out is a risk. Did I somehow break your ego with my comment ?
@@johngonon1507 I’m not sure how my ego would have been broken from a comment on a video to which I have no connection. With your seemingly high level of anxiety are you able to enjoy any activities outside of the house? For example, are you able to enjoy driving in any vehicle? Your comment about the function of the rear doors on this vehicle on this persons video is what makes it ridiculous. If you had made such a comment to an official BMW channel it would be slightly less ridiculous. My reply to you is ridiculous because I caved and decided to engage with such a ridiculous comment.

Does it have Android auto ? and if so which models do ?

No radar cruise on an i3 unfortunately. It's a camera based system and not particularly great. No idea why they didn't use radar system.
Thank you for the correction! You are right, it’s camera-based. This explains why direct sun and poor weather can cause it to disengage.
How is it sustainable to have a frame that gets totaled in an accidental in a heartbeat?
The frame is the exact same material that is in F1 formula race cars. Unless you’re driving over 200mph then you’re not going to die in a BMW i3
So if you're in the backseat, in a crash, and the driver is unconscious, ... can you open the "rear" door ?
You cannot open the rear door without first opening the front. In this situation the back passengers are in a similar circumstance as those in a 2-door car.

This is one of the most ridiculous comments I’ve seen. With this logic, be sure to never get in the back seat of a two-door coupe.
