Uploaded 6 years ago by The Redline

Video Summary

Here is the requested summary of the YouTube video:
- The BMW i3 had an LCI (Life Cycle Impulse), a general upgrade, including full LED headlights.
- There will be a battery with more capacity next year (2019).
- The i3s has fatter tires and new 20-inch wheels. Its dynamic stability control is set up so that controlled drifts are enabled.
- The i3 has 125kW (170 hp), the i3s has 135kW (184 hp).
- Torque is up by 20 Newton meters, and is available at zero revs.
- Other changes in the i3s include a wider track, lower suspension, different springs and dampers, and a sport mode.
- Both i3s have roughly the same range from the 33kWh battery pack.
- The Range Extender version also has a motorbike engine which gives another 100km.
- The 1-pedal operation in this car is effective. The regenerative braking slows the car to a halt without the brakes.
- The choppy ride is not fidgety, but a little bit inconsistent. However, it's easy to get used to.
- Electric cars do not have to suck, and the presenter has been a "fierce defender of this car."
- There are people who will wave at you. It has a distinctive look.
- Electric cars are very expensive.
- The BMW I3 is a very cool car, and the S version is worth the extra expenditure.
