First look at the BMW i3

Performance Meets Precision.

BMW has officially unveiled the first-ever all-electric 3 Series, the BMW i3, marking a "technological quantum leap" as part of the brand’s visionary Neue Klasse line-up. Combining hallmark BMW sportiness with next-generation efficiency, the new i3 saloon is set to redefine the electric driving experience when production begins in Munich in August 2026.The BMW i3 50 xDrive features an electric motor on both axles, delivering a combined output of 345 kW (469 hp) and 645 Nm of torque. At its heart lies the ‘Heart of Joy’ - a high-performance super-brain recently introduced in the new BMW iX3 that processes driving dynamics ten times faster than previous systems, ensuring the precise, effortless handling expected of a 3 Series.
