BMW will present at the motor show in Los Angeles next week, the concept of eco-mobile i3. Car body is made of carbon fiber with the use of aluminum. In addition, the new product has a double floor. According to British sources, it is in the space between the floor and the bottom of the BMW i3 will be hidden batteries.
According to some reports, the first two models of eco-brand BMW i - i3 city car and a sport coupe i8 - should be on sale in 2013 and 2014 respectively. According to the plans the automaker, the year is planned to produce 100 000 copies BMW i3.
However, experts believe that the company will have to postpone the release of environmentally friendly models indefinitely. There are several reasons. First, the lack of infrastructure is not conducive to promoting sustainable mobility. Second, European governments, initially promised to provide incentives to buyers of electric vehicles, are forced to abandon their proposals because of the more complicated economic situation in the EU.
