BMW i3 2017: A Game-Changer in the Electric Vehicle Segment
The BMW i3, first introduced in 2013, has been a trailblazer in the electric vehicle market. The 2017 model year marked an evolution for this innovative compact electric car, with enhancements in performance, design, and technology. Let's dive into the technical specifications, modifications, engine versions, trim levels, design, and handling of the 2017 BMW i3.
Technical Specifications
The 2017 BMW i3 is powered by a synchronous electric motor that delivers 170 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. The electric motor is paired with a 33 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, providing a range of approximately 114 miles on a full charge. This battery can be recharged in just a few hours using a Level 2 charger, making it ideal for urban commuting and short trips.
Modifications
For the 2017 model year, BMW introduced the optional Range Extender, which is a small gasoline engine that acts as a generator to recharge the battery, extending the i3's range to around 180 miles. This option offered more flexibility for drivers who needed extra range for longer journeys. Additionally, BMW enhanced the i3's connectivity features with the latest version of its iDrive infotainment system, providing seamless integration with smartphones and navigation services.
Engine Versions
The 2017 BMW i3 was available with two engine options: the standard electric motor with a 33 kWh battery pack, and the optional Range Extender that added a small gasoline engine. Both versions delivered impressive performance and efficiency, catering to different driving needs and preferences.
Trim Levels
BMW offered the 2017 i3 in two trim levels: the base Mega World and the upscale Giga World. The Mega World trim featured sustainable materials and a modern interior design, while the Giga World offered premium amenities and luxurious finishes. Both trims reflected BMW's commitment to sustainability and innovation in automotive design.
Design
The 2017 BMW i3 showcased a distinctive and futuristic design that set it apart from traditional combustion engine vehicles. Its compact dimensions, unique kidney grille, and carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic body highlighted its eco-friendly ethos and aerodynamic efficiency. The i3's interior was equally impressive, with a spacious cabin, high-quality materials, and cutting-edge technology features that provided a premium driving experience.
Handling
Thanks to its low center of gravity and precise electric power steering, the 2017 BMW i3 offered agile and responsive handling. The instant torque delivery from the electric motor provided quick acceleration, making city driving a breeze. The i3's regenerative braking system also helped maximize range by capturing energy during deceleration and braking, further enhancing its efficiency and performance.
Key Differences Between Generations
In 2017, BMW introduced the i3 with an updated battery pack that increased the range to 114 miles, addressing one of the main concerns of electric vehicle buyers. Additionally, the optional Range Extender became more refined, offering better performance and efficiency compared to previous iterations. These improvements made the 2017 BMW i3 a more compelling choice for consumers looking to transition to electric mobility.
Overall, the 2017 BMW i3 exemplified BMW's commitment to sustainability, innovation, and driving pleasure. With its advanced technology, eco-conscious design, and engaging driving dynamics, the i3 set a new standard for electric vehicles in the automotive industry.
The best way to check a car, in addition to an on-site inspection, is to purchase a Carfax and NVMtis report – leading services providing information about vehicles. Obtain comprehensive details about the car, including repair history, mileage, insurance data, and much more, to make an informed decision when buying a used car.
We deliver cars using maritime transport for efficiency and safety. After processing the necessary documents, we transport the car to the nearest port, where it is loaded onto a ship for secure delivery to the destination. For the final leg of delivery from the port to the customer's home, we use ground transportation in the form of car carriers. Our process ensures reliable and timely delivery of your car.
Throughout the entire delivery process, our cars undergo thorough protection. They are insured for the entire transportation period, ensuring safety and coverage of potential risks. Additionally, to prevent damage and preserve the exterior, we use car covers, and inside the car, we install moisture absorbers. These measures ensure the preservation of cars in excellent condition throughout the entire journey to the customer.
To participate in a car auction in the USA or Canada, you need to register on our website, make a small deposit (a mandatory requirement for all auctions), and then specify the desired maximum bid for the car. If the car is sold for the amount you specified or even less, you will become its owner. In some auctions, you may also need to wait for the seller's approval of the final bid.
