Does the BMW i3 offer free battery replacement within eight years?

[DeMiranda]

Within 8 years from the date of the new car purchase invoice or within 100,000 kilometers, customers can request free repairs for technical defects in the high-voltage battery. Authorized dealers will provide free repairs if the high-voltage battery capacity is detected to be below 70% of its initial value at the time of new car delivery. Additionally, during this period, if repairs are required due to technical defects in the high-voltage battery, the cost of towing the vehicle to the nearest dealer within a 100-kilometer radius of the vehicle's location will be waived or reimbursed to the customer. Below is relevant information on car battery maintenance: Frequent driving maintains charge: If a battery is left unused for a long time, it will gradually self-discharge until it becomes unusable. Therefore, the car should be started periodically to recharge the battery. Regular cleaning: Accumulated dirt on the battery surface should be cleaned from time to time, including oxides on the positive and negative terminal posts. Be careful not to short-circuit the positive terminal when cleaning.
