BMW UK is celebrating selling its 10,000th BMW I3, which was launched in 2013.

Thanks to the latest BMW eDrive technology, both the BMW i3 and new BMW i3s offer emission-free driving with instantaneous power delivery, efficient use of energy and an increased range.

In 2017, BMW Group sold more than 100,000 electrified vehicles and both BMW i and BMW iPerformance became best-selling Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) brands worldwide.

BMW i vehicles are now sold in 74 countries and has 130,000 ChargeNow locations worldwide with more than 5,000 in the UK.

Graeme Grieve, chief executive officer, BMW UK commented: “This is an important moment for electric cars in the UK. With the electric vehicle market growing at astonishing pace, I am proud that the BMW i3 has played such a major role in promoting EV ownership.”
