This all-electric i3 M isn't badged a 3 Series, but BMW officially counts it as part of the eighth-generation 3 Series lineup, alongside the unrelated gas-powered G50/G51.
The revived i3 can add 263 miles of range in just 10 minutes on a 400kW DC fast charger — numbers the original i3 couldn't have dreamed of.
The i3 REx wasn't just an EV with a backup engine — California regulators created an entirely new category for it, "BEVx," and the i3 was the first car to ever qualify.
