The BMW i3 is a four-seater vehicle, which is a pure electric car under the BMW brand and has been well-received by many consumers since its launch. The BMW i3 is a single-motor model with a maximum motor power of 125 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. Below are details about the model: 1. The BMW i3 has dimensions of 4006×1775×1600 mm and a top speed of 150 km/h. 2. The BMW i3 offers an optional range-extender version, which is equipped with a 0.647L two-cylinder gasoline engine. With the same power output, the curb weight increases from 1298 kg to 1430 kg, while the acceleration time remains unchanged. The daily driving range is 330 km, with a maximum range of 396 km. In the NEDC cycle, the i3 range-extender version consumes 11.5-11.9 kWh of electricity and 0.6L of gasoline per 100 km. The average fuel consumption for the hybrid version is around 3.2 liters, making it very fuel-efficient. 4. The new BMW i3 continues to feature a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) passenger cell and offers various seat material options, including leather and fabric. The new car adheres to the sustainable development concept, incorporating a significant amount of renewable materials in the interior.

The BMW i3, a compact electric vehicle, is primarily a 4-seater, including two front seats and two rear seats, making it quite suitable for urban commuting. From a practical usage perspective, the rear seat space is well-designed, comfortably accommodating two adults or trips with children, but don't expect to squeeze in a fifth person. The trunk isn't particularly large either, suitable for daily shopping or short trips. Overall, its compact body makes parking on crowded streets especially convenient, offering both eco-friendliness and practicality. However, if you frequently transport the whole family, you might want to consider other models.

The BMW i3, as a stylish compact car, comes standard with 4 seats. I often drive it to work and find it just right for city life—one driver in the front seat, a friend in the passenger seat, and two chatting in the back, with no feeling of crowding at all. In traffic jams, its nimble handling and silent electric motor are definite pluses. However, the trunk is a bit small, so luggage needs to be kept minimal. It also performs quite steadily on highways. In short, it's an electric option designed to save resources, and the number of seats perfectly aligns with the concept of green living.

The BMW i3 primarily offers four seats, with a design focused on environmental friendliness and efficiency. I understand this reflects the urban mobility trend—reducing excess space to save energy. The rear seats can accommodate two adults with decent comfort, making it suitable for daily school runs or commutes. Its compact body makes parking easy, and the electric drive reduces carbon emissions. Remember to check the configurations, as there are generally no expansion options available.

How to Turn On Front and Rear Fog Lights?

Front and rear fog lights can be turned on as follows: 1. Lever-type fog lights: Rotate the lever upwards one notch to turn on the front fog lights, and rotate two notches to turn on both front and rear fog lights simultaneously. 2. Knob-type fog lights: Pull the knob out one position to turn on the front fog lights, and pull it out another position to turn on both front and rear fog lights at the same time. Additional information: 1. Purpose of fog lights: Installed at the front and rear of the vehicle, fog lights enhance visibility for the driver and other road users. 2. When to use fog lights: They must be turned on during heavy fog or rain when visibility is low to prevent rear-end collisions.

Do You Need to Press the Brake to Shift Gears in an Automatic Transmission?

Automatic transmissions do not require pressing the brake to shift gears. Here is an introduction to the gears of an automatic transmission car: 1. All gears: The gears of an automatic transmission include P, R, N, D, 2 or S, L or 1. 2. Parking gear: P stands for Parking gear, also known as the Parking position. 3. Other gears: R stands for Reverse, N stands for Neutral, D stands for Drive, also known as the Driving gear. 4. Sport mode: S or 2 represents Sport mode. 5. Low gear: L or 1 stands for Low gear, also known as 1st gear. Here is additional information on driving an automatic transmission car: 1. General situation: When driving, unless there are special requirements, do not repeatedly move the gear lever between D, 3, 2, 1, etc. 2. Damage: When starting an automatic transmission car, ensure the gear is in P or N position, otherwise it may damage the transmission. 3. Reversing: When reversing an automatic transmission car, ensure the vehicle is completely stopped before shifting into R gear.

What Causes Engine Shaking When Starting an Automatic Car?

Here are the reasons for engine shaking when starting an automatic car: 1. Throttle: A dirty throttle causes uneven airflow, leading to shaking. 2. Fuel system: Poor fuel flow results in inadequate fuel supply at low throttle, causing uneven cylinder operation and shaking. 3. Transmission: Abnormal transmission operation. 4. High-voltage wires: Broken or burnt high-voltage wires or spark plug failure can cause cylinders to misfire, leading to unstable engine operation and shaking. 5. Battery voltage: Whether the battery voltage is within the specified range. Below are additional details on related causes: 1. Cause: The most common reason for car shaking is a dirty throttle or excessive carbon buildup in the fuel injectors. 2. Engine carbon buildup: When there is excessive carbon buildup inside the engine, the gasoline sprayed by the cold-start injector is largely absorbed by the carbon deposits, resulting in an overly lean air-fuel mixture during cold starts and making it difficult to start.

Which Turn Signal to Use When Exiting a Ramp?

When exiting a ramp, you should turn on the right turn signal. Below is an introduction about exiting a ramp: 1. Exiting a ramp: (1) When exiting a highway via a ramp, pay attention to the intersection warning signs, divert your vehicle from the main lane into the deceleration lane to slow down, and then enter the general road via the ramp. (2) When leaving the ramp, turn on the right turn signal. 2. Entering a ramp: (1) On the ramp, when entering the highway, you need to quickly increase your speed. However, do not exceed the speed limit indicated by the signs. Overtaking, making U-turns, stopping, and reversing are not allowed on the ramp. (2) After driving from the ramp into the highway acceleration lane, you may or may not turn on the left turn signal, quickly increase your speed to over 60 km/h, and carefully observe the traffic on the lane to choose the right moment to merge into the driving lane. Emergency braking or stopping in the acceleration lane is not allowed. When the driving lane is sparsely populated with vehicles, you can merge into the driving lane after normal driving; if vehicles on the highway are following closely, control your speed and merge into the driving lane only after all vehicles have passed.

Is starting at 3000 RPM harmful to a CVT transmission?

Starting a CVT transmission at 3000 RPM can cause certain damage to the transmission and clutch plates, and it is not recommended to drive this way. There are three common types of automatic transmissions in automatic cars: dual-clutch transmissions, CVT transmissions, and AT transmissions. The specific details are as follows: 1. Dual-clutch transmission: (1) It connects to the engine via clutch plates. The structure of a dual-clutch transmission is similar to that of a manual transmission, except that it has an additional set of clutches and a shift control mechanism. (2) One set of clutches in a dual-clutch transmission controls the odd-numbered gears, while the other set controls the even-numbered gears. (3) Dual-clutch transmissions offer fast shifting speeds and relatively high transmission efficiency. 2. AT transmission: (1) It connects to the engine via a torque converter. (2) AT transmissions are the most mature and widely used automatic transmissions, featuring a relatively complex structure. (3) AT transmissions contain many planetary gears, which are responsible for gear shifting and torque conversion. 3. CVT transmission: (1) The internal structure is relatively simple, consisting of only two pulleys and a steel belt. (2) The steel belt in a CVT transmission can move along the pulleys, enabling gear shifting and torque conversion. (3) CVT transmissions provide smooth shifting and good reliability and durability.
