There’s a new BMW in town — the fully electric i3 50 xDrive. Kinda… For one thing, it’s not here yet. It’s hitting the streets in Q1 2027. For another, it’s only technically new, borrowing the naming convention from one of the German automaker’s most popular cars. This i3, however, has the honour of being the first all-electric 3 Series available in SA. It’ll be built in BMW’s home country, rather than using the company’s local production line.
