Most electric vehicles in the market are designed as compact cars and sedans that appeal to professionals and young families. But there’s another kind of EV in the block that is offered as a crossover and packed with innovative electric and performance features- the BMW i3. This BMW crossover comes with an 81 miles range for battery, or can deliver 150 miles in range using the range extender. Aside from range, there are other great things going for the BMW i3 including the use of innovative materials and of course, its performance.

And if you really want this kind of car, then you should have the cash to show off- the BMW i3 retails for at least $42,000!
