I work for BMW, and I have to admit... I went in for the i3 drive with the impression of not being exciting or thinking it would not be as impressive as I would have though. It's an electric vehicle. I drove it, learned much about the engineering behind it. WOW! I must say, it's one of the nicest vehicles I've driven in it's class. Overall, I'd say I'm very pleased with the torque, design, and build characteristics. Amazing amazing. Bravo BMW. I knew you wouldn't make a piece of junk.
