With a striking new design language, advanced technology and exhilarating performance, the BMW i3 Saloon redefines what driving pleasure means in an electric era.

Be among the first to experience the future of driving.
The BMW i3 represents a technological leap forward as part of BMW’s Neue Klasse – a new generation of vehicles built around electrification, digitalisation and sustainability. Every element has been reimagined, from its intelligent architecture to its driver-focused design.
Its modern silhouette, defined by a long wheelbase, flowing roofline and short overhangs, delivers both elegance and athleticism. Inside, a completely re-engineered interior creates a spacious, minimalist environment centred entirely around the driver.
This is not just a new model - it’s the future of BMW.
The BMW i3 50 xDrive delivers electrifying performance with dual motors on the front and rear axles, producing up to 469 hp and 645 Nm of torque¹. The result is instant acceleration, exceptional control and a driving experience that feels effortlessly powerful.
At the heart of this is the “Heart of Joy” high-performance system, working alongside advanced computing to deliver responses up to ten times faster than previous systems. Every input feels sharper, every corner more precise - creating a truly connected drive.
Step inside and experience a completely new digital environment. The BMW Panoramic iDrive transforms the way you interact with your vehicle, while the latest BMW Operating System X delivers a more personalised, intuitive experience.
Features such as Panoramic Vision and the optional 3D Head-Up Display place key information directly in your line of sight, enhancing focus and control. Combined with BMW Symbiotic Drive, the i3 introduces a new level of intelligent assistance, making every journey smoother, safer and more engaging.
Designed for everyday usability and long-distance capability, the BMW i3 offers a range of up to 562 miles (WLTP)², with some configurations reaching up to 900 km².
Thanks to next-generation 800-volt architecture and sixth-generation eDrive technology, ultra-fast charging is effortless. With DC charging up to 400 kW, you can gain up to 248 miles of range in just 10 minutes².
The BMW i3 also introduces bidirectional charging, including Vehicle-to-Home and Vehicle-to-Grid functionality, allowing your car to act as a flexible energy source whenever you need it.

² The BMW i3 is a battery electric vehicle requiring mains electricity for charging. WLTP electric range for the new BMW i3 Saloon model range: 503 to 562 miles. Whilst we recommend the battery is charged to 80% to help optimise the health and life of your battery, the electric range figure shown is the WLTP figure after the battery had been fully charged to 100%. Model shown is the BMW i3 50 xDrive Saloon with up to 562 mile range. WLTP figures are shown for comparability purposes. Only compare fuel consumption, CO2 and electric range figures with other cars tested to the same technical procedures. These figures may not reflect real life driving results, which will depend upon a number of factors including the starting charge of the battery, accessories fitted (post registration), variations in weather, driving styles and vehicle load.
