With a ceremony that is & egrave; Carried out at its Munich plant, BMW delivered 18 special models of the BMW i3 electric all in gold (Galvanic Gold) with a contrasting black roof and bonnet. With these models, the German car manufacturer wanted to celebrate the end of the career of its electric which in the course of its life is; over 250,000 units were sold .
As we had seen, production had been stopped at the beginning of the summer. With this small ceremony, the German brand wanted to & quot; say goodbye & quot; in the best of ways, the car that has had a very long career as the production & egrave; started in 2013.
ALMOST 10 YEARS OF LIFE 
A model that will not have; an heir and this already it had been known for some time. The name i3, at the moment, is; also used in China for the electric variant of the Series 3. A choice made because & eacute; the electric compact of the German manufacturer had never arrived on that market. In 2013, the year of its entry into production, mobility electric was a little more; of an experiment. Precisely for this reason, BMW chose to bring to the market a decidedly particular car, originally conceived to be a niche model.
It was designed from scratch thinking about necessity of an electric car. BMW then chose to adopt particularly sophisticated solutions by making extensive use of aluminum and carbon . It did not immediately make inroads among users also because of its particular shapes. Slowly, for & ograve ;, yes & egrave; appreciated by customers and, as we have seen, a total of over 250 thousand have been sold.
Over time, BMW has constantly updated the i3 by introducing higher capacity batteries; . The first model, in fact, had a 22 kWh battery. Subsequently & egrave; the model with a 33 kWh accumulator was introduced and then the current one with a 42.2 kWh battery. For a time, this car is; also offered in range extender version . In these variants there was a small petrol engine that was used to recharge the battery, extending the autonomy.
Version that is not; been more available (at least in Europe), with the introduction of the 42.2 kWh accumulator. In recent years, the German brand had also introduced the i3S variant , more & ugrave; sporty.
