When BMW introduced the i3 back in 2013, it showed the world that it was ahead of the pack when it came to electric cars. That the decade-old model still looks fresh and desirable is a testament to the brand’s achievements. Since the i3, BMW has fallen behind its rivals where the electric car is concerned.
