I've been running around in a BEV i3 since 1st March 2014. My new 94Ah REx is currently sat at the dealers waiting for OLEV and the DVLA to sort themselves out and add the new model to their systems.

Me!

Just ordered it today (see best lease thread for details if that's what floats your boat)

No idea yet of delivery date. Bog standard car in white for reasons of cheapy cheapy!

Very expensive compared to my current Zoe deal, but very cheap compared to a Zoe today

I have one on order (a Rex,) estimated early October. First Ev so looking forward to a new experience! The initial photos of a blue i3 I saw on the web put me off, so I went for Black in the end - but yours does look good.

i3 Rex, Suite Interior, 19" Turbine, Sports Pack, Protonic Blue, Sunroof, HK Audio, Pro Nav.

Basically to accompany my existing i3 REX with standard interior and no sunroof. smile

Any detectable loss of pep between your old lighter BEV and this big battery REX?

Looks great by the way, mine should be here Early September

Not that you can tell to be honest! You've made a good choice!

What's your new range on batteries compared to the old one ?

Drive it like you stole it 100 miles. I can easily get 125 miles, and 150 would be achievable with a light right foot.

I didn't know they were available for delivery so early - I thought I was quick to order, and mine comes next Friday. It replaces my 3 year old (48k miles) ZOE.
