The body length of the BMW i3 is 4020mm, with a width of 1775mm, height of 1600mm, and a wheelbase of 2570mm. The BMW i3 is positioned as a compact car, featuring a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. The BMW i3 is equipped with a pure electric 170-horsepower motor, delivering a total power output of 125kW and a total torque of 250Nm, paired with a single-speed electric transmission. The BMW i3 adopts a wider front windshield, uses smaller aluminum alloy wheels, and its interior design closely resembles that of the MINI Clubman, emphasizing the vehicle's practicality.
Just helped my cousin measure his BMW i3 the other day - the car length is exactly 4 meters (4006mm to be precise), even shorter than regular hatchbacks. But with a 2570mm wheelbase, the rear seats are surprisingly spacious, especially with those practical coach doors. This compact size makes city driving extremely nimble - I parallel parked in one go at those tight market parking spots where three cars squeeze into two spaces, thanks to the rearview camera. The only drawback is the small trunk; we had to slide the rear seats forward to fit a stroller.
