BMW announced this week that a version of its 2017 i3 electric car will offer an all-electric range of 114 miles—a big jump from the current model's 81 miles. The new longer-range i3 will immediately catapult the model to first place in EV range among vehicles priced below $50,000.
Pricing for the 2017 BMW i3 will be released closer to its launch. The current model starts at $43,395, before state and federal credits. The more affordable Nissan LEAF, which starts around $34,000 for the version with 107 miles of range, has nearly as much range. Yet, a new breed of long-range electric cars—such as the Chevrolet Bolt and Tesla Model 3—are expected to offer 200 or more miles of range for about the same cost.
