Are you looking for a used BMW i3?

Are you interested in getting a used electric car? Look no further than the BMW i3 - an excellent choice! AutoUncle present 400 options collected from different dealership websites and online marketplaces.

What is the average price of a used BMW i3?

The oldest and cheapest BMW i3 here on AutoUncle can be purchased for £6,950, and a newer model with a more advanced trim costs around £16,950.

There exist five primary factors that affect what a used BMW i3 costs: what year the car is from, engine size and performance, fuel consumption, the car's mileage together with equipment.

For instance, a more recent model with limited mileage, or a premium variant featuring a powerful engine, typically commands a higher price than a used model with many kilometres on the odometer and in a simple equipment variant.

What equipment options does the BMW i3 have?

What are the fuel options for the BMW i3?

El is the foremost fuel option for the BMW i3.

BMW i3 fuel types compared:

  • BMW i3 el: 335 cars currently available with an average price of £12,629
  • BMW i3 plug-in hybrid: 63 cars currently available with an average price of £9,506
  • BMW i3 plug-in hybrid: Currently there is 2 cars available on AutoUncle with an average price of £12,245

When deciding on a fuel type, your driving habits should be a key consideration. Are your driving routes predominantly in urban areas or on highways and motorways? What is your average weekly mileage?

If you mostly drive short trips, electric cars, plug-in hybrids or petrol cars may be relevant. For longer daily commutes, a modern electric car is often suitable - especially if you can charge at home or at work. Diesel cars can still make sense if you drive very far and don't have access to charging. Be aware that in several countries, diesel engines that emit high levels of pollutants are barred from urban areas.

More and more people are choosing electric cars over traditional ones

In the UK, the rising popularity of electric cars is a result of their eco-friendly benefits, lesser fuel and savings on maintenance expenses, and government initiatives to curtail carbon emissions, providing perks for electric vehicle consumers. The integration of electric vehicles like the BMW i3 plays a crucial role in transitioning towards more environmentally responsible and sustainable transportation choices.

Advantages of purchasing a pre-owned electric car

A great deal of upsides come with opting for a pre-owned electric car. Some of the advantages are:

  1. Lower purchase price: Pre-owned electric vehicles are typically less expensive than brand-new models. The reduced pricing of these vehicles extends the reach of electric vehicle technology to more buyers.

  2. Environmental impact: The choice of a second-owner electric car over a new one further reduces its carbon footprint. Manufacturing a new car, especially the battery, has a significant carbon footprint. Choosing a used EV means you're not adding to this ecological concern..

  3. Improved battery life: Concerns about the battery lifespan in EVs has decreased with the evolution of technology. Many used EVs still have a substantial portion of their battery life remaining, and replacement costs are decreasing.

  4. Performance and technology: Many electric vehicles on the market now deliver striking performance and are fitted with the most modern technology. Models that are a few years old can still offer an advanced technological driving experience.

  5. Government incentives: Whilst being lower than for brand-new EVs, there could still be governmental benefits available for second-hand electric vehicles, including lower road tax and access to low-emission areas..
