AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)12/09 Report--

In the latest issue of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology declaration catalogue, we obtained the declaration map of Brilliance BMW i3. It is worth mentioning that this "i3" is not the "i3", although Brilliance BMW named this new car i3, but has nothing to do with the previously imported hatchback version i3, but a pure tram model based on the mid-term modified BMW 3 Series.

As a pure electric model, the BMW Brilliance i3 front face features a closed double kidney grille, and chrome trim strips on the edges add exclusive blue elements. LED headlights with unique light sources on both sides, the shape of the bumper integrates a slightly exaggerated diffuser, and also adds the blue element exclusive to electric vehicles. On the side of the body, the BMW i3 will be available in a variety of rim styles, including 18-inch and 19-inch size. At the rear of the car, the new car basically retains the current design, while the rear bumper design echoes the front face and adds blue trim. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4872/1846/1481mm respectively, the wheelbase is 2966mm, and the total amount reaches 2530kg.

In terms of power, the new car will be driven by a rear single motor with a maximum power of 250kW. This set of power performance is higher than the current fuel version of BMW Brilliance 325Li or even 330Li models, comparable to BMW's current classic B58 inline 6-cylinder 3.0T engine (245kW). Therefore, the tail "35L" logo is the highest positioning of the domestic ordinary 3 series.

According to media reports, Brilliance BMW i3 is expected to go on sale next year and will be produced at Shenyang factory together with iX3. Its positioning and price will be significantly lower than that of imported i4 series. Competitors will include Tesla Model 3 and other models. However, due to its appearance and BMW 3 series is very similar, many netizens discuss whether it is an oil-to-electric model, in addition to the car weight of 2.5 tons also expressed shock.

According to the official plan, BMW Group will continue to push forward the electric vehicle offensive. By 2023, it plans to launch 12 pure electric models in the Chinese market, covering almost all current market segments. By 2025, at least a quarter of BMW Group cars sold in China will be purely electric.

At the Guangzhou Auto Show, BMW iX officially launched, innovative BMW iX xDrive50 official guidance price of 846,900 yuan. As a product that adopts the new design language of BMW's electric era, BMW iX creates a luxurious and atmospheric atmosphere in its styling. In terms of power, the iX xDrive 50 has a maximum power of 523 hp, peak torque of 765 N·m, acceleration time of 4.6 seconds from 0-100 km/h and a maximum range of 630 km under WLTP conditions.
