03. UTILIZATION
THE ORIGIN OF EMISSION-FREE
DRIVING: POWER FROM RENEWABLE
RESOURCES.
With zero local emissions while driving, the BMW i3 helps reduce air
pollution in urban areas. When charged with clean power – generated
from renewables – the positive impact is greater still. This is because,
throughout the entire product life cycle, driving the new BMW i3 on
energy from renewable sources can potentially reduce emissions (CO
2
equivalents) by up to 50%, when compared to a highly efficient vehicle
of the same class with a combustion engine. That's why BMW i rec-
ommends clean energy producers, to help make an even bigger differ-
ence. Further details can be found online at bmw-i.com/sustainability.
As if that weren't enough, the innovative eDrive technology of the
BMW i3 also features all sorts of efficiency enhancers: from state-of-
the-art brake energy recuperation to range-increasing ECO PRO+
driving mode, which can boost the driving range by up to 40km at the
touch of a button.
