BMW I3

‘The best small premium EV you can buy ‘ according to Top Gear magazine – one of the lightest and most efficient electric cars

A fast, fun, safe, practical and hugely rewarding car. For local journeys the all electric’s range of 80-100 miles in early models is fine.

The range extender version gives another 80 -100 miles per fill of petrol and takes away all range anxiety.

If you run out of charge the small engine kicks in and makes electricity to recharge the battery.

More recent I3s can have a bigger battery which extends your electric range to around 150 miles up to 2016 plates.
