Dutch customers looking for an extra-special EV have
a new special edition on their hands. Based on the BMW i3, the new Carbon
Edition accentuates the vehicle's futuristic lines with a special trim and
equipment.
The BMW i3 Carbon Edition features a
special carbon black exterior paint finish that's so dark it almost looks blue
– accented by 20-inch powder-coated wheels and trim in matte gray.
The interior is done up in special leather
upholstery and features all the bells and whistles. The list of otherwise
optional equipment bundled as standard include an electric sunroof, tinted
glass, Harman Kardon audio system, LED headlamps, and the connectivity, driver
assistance, parking assistance, interior design and iPerformance packages.
BMW is only offering the special edition in the
Netherlands, and only on the pure-electric version. Pricing starts at € 53,731, or nearly € 15k
more than a base i3, but you do get a
lot of extra equipment for that premium.
