BMW i3s vs i3 ( Ultimate City Car Showdown )

We finally got a chance to review the BMW i3s. As most of you guys who watch the channel know I am a huge BMW i3 fan. BMW decided the last i3 could use a little more sport and dropped us a newer, sportier version. Styling is changed slightly, a wider wheelbase, different tires, lower suspension, and a little more power are updates for the new i3s. First impressions of this car were that the S stood for faster and it does, just not in the way I was thinking. Horsepower and acceleration wise the car was very very similar to the old car. Where this car really stood out from the regular i3 is the much more sharp suspension. I noticed this i3s really felt like it was setup for quick turns more than just happening to be a sporty feeling car. Big thanks to Alan Okey for letting us take out this 2019 BMW i3s and put it through its paces. The i3 is really all around a great car that I recommend for anyone looking to get into a used EV that's great. Shot on: GoPro Hero 8 / iphone 11 Shot by: @ray_syd 2019 BMW i3s w/ range extender
