BMW i3 (NA0)


The BMW i3 is a battery electric compact executive car manufactured by BMW. It is part of the eighth generation of the BMW 3 Series range, along with the internal combustion engine variants - the BMW G50 and BMW G51. It was teased during the launch event of the BMW iX3 (NA5), revealing its official name and expected launch date of 2026.
Spy shots of the battery electric M3 were captured, with a rumored model code of ZA0.

Overview

The i3 was previewed by several concept cars showing the Neue Klasse generation as a whole, including the BMW i Vision Dee, BMW Vision Neue Klasse, and BMW Vision Driving Experience. They showed a new, simpler form language that was simpler and included references to classic BMWs.

Design

Similar to the iX3, the i3 will use BMW's radical Neue Klasse design language, with twin kidney grilles merged with the dual headlights.
