I do not know if I ever saw a posted Cd for the i3. But, consider that being designed for primarily city use, long distance high speed isn't really a mainstay for the vehicle - most city speed limits aren't that high, and for the vehicle to be a reasonable choice, you can't have a very long high-speed commute getting there. Drag does go up at the square of the velocity, so it only becomes a major factor when traveling on the highway, not so much around town.
The tall, narrow tires and smooth, somewhat teardrop shape may have better Cd than you think.
Anyone seen a listed Cd for the thing? I found it, it's listed as .29, which isn't bad.
