Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming more and more commonplace as technology advances to keep pace with demand. Where before range anxiety was ubiquitous with EV ownership, now vehicles like the 2017 BMW i3 are doing their part to put range anxiety to rest for good. With over 100 miles per charge of range, here at Murray BMW of Denver, we think it’s doing a great job of vanquishing those worries about range. If you’ve been wanting to go electric but had reservations about range, the 2017 BMW i3 will release to dealerships later this fall, ready to cure your range woes once and for all.
What makes the 2017 BMW i3 so special is its dramatic increase in range, boosted a full 40 percent over the 2016 model. By switching to new Samsung 94 Ah battery cells, engineers at BMW were able to bring the 2017 i3’s range from 81 miles per charge to 114 miles per charge. Of course, for folks with even heavier driving demands, there will be a BMW i3 Range Extender model for the 2017 line, though specifics about it are currently undisclosed.
Whether you’re someone who just needs to zip around town or you use your car to travel all over, the 2017 BMW i3 and its superior range have what it takes to keep up with you and your busy lifestyle. If you like the idea of never stopping for gas again, consider coming into our Glendale, CO showroom later this fall when the 2017 i3 rolls into dealerships to see if you can’t put a little spark in your drive.
