Getting back to the. BMWs...... In the advert, they seem to focus o the butt ugly one on the right, but I. Quite like the look of the sportier looking one. Not saying I'd buy it, just wonder why the advert goes wit the fugly car.

The i3 is electric but has a small petrol engine that 'maintains' the battery level so in theory you can drive it all day long with that engine running keeping the batteries for extending the range etc.

Seems like a step in the right direction - but seeing as it's made using some pretty expensive materials it wont be cheap!

I'm surprised Nissan didn't think of these energy saving measures. ;D

Yes, passenger side. Give them something to think about other than distracting me from driving with mundane crap like "I want to go shopping" ::)

Nissan are a bit too preoccupied with the prospect of Britain leaving the EU, to worry about mundane things like designing and building cars.  ::)  ;D
