..... is very cool.

Comparison with the i3 community is fascinating, although the values in there are changing around a lot, as there are less than 1000 i3 miles in the UK recorded in the community.

Miles/kWh , miles per charge, kWh regen, etc., Probably a bit of novelty at the minute, but good fun for now.

Neat. What's the process for getting it up and running ? Does it take a few days to sort out ?

Can that total community figure be right? I've done 700ish of those, and there must be plenty of BMW salesmen also running around for the last few months.



What's the 5000ish figure at the top of the column, do you think?

Very easy, you get a username and password by text a couple of days after you get the car. In the app you can turn community on or off. Even when it is off you still get the stats but don't contribute to the community figures (and I guess don't see them, but I'm not sure because I've had it switched on from the beginning)

Possibly not, but then the salesmen may only have community switched on? I imagine most people just won't bother exploring it and therefore won't turn it on.

I'm not sure what the 5000ish figure is, let's see if it moves over time.

I've had a brainwave. The 5000 figure is the highest mileage recorded by someone, the 1000 figure is the average. What do you reckon?

That could be it. There are a couple of thing on the stats which aren't immediately obvious, I'm not sure I fully understand the units for recuperated energy mi/kWh. That's also the stat which is most different to the community for me, the average being over 20.
