BMW introduces ‘Sport’ model in i3 range

BMW is now adding a Sport model to its electric i3 range, called the i3s. The new BMW i3s will sport cosmetic as well as mechanical changes, with upgrades such as front and rear aprons with matching colour accents, 20-inch wheels, and a slightly lowered (0.4-inch) suspension. The sportier i3s will feature an electric motor belting out 184bhp and 270Nm of torque. The base model, however, will have 170bhp and 250Nm of torque. The 2018 BMW i3 range will also include an optional range extender (internal combustion engine). The 2018 BMW i3 range will be unveiled later this year at the Frankfurt Motor Show, and prices will be announced toward the end of this year, just before going on sale.
