BMW i3 $10,000 Utility Discounts To End on July 31st
3 H BY TOM MOLOUGHNEY 2
If you’re looking for a fantastic deal on a BMW i3, it’s time to act fast.
Earlier this year we reported that BMW was partnering with Southern California Edison to provide a $10,000 discount for any new BMW i3 purchase. The offer was available for all SCE customers and employees. Soon thereafter, we learned that BMW was partnering with about a dozen more electricity providers in six other states as well as the District of Columbia to offer the same $10,000 discount on new i3 purchases (not leases).

The catch is that it’s only available on purchases, not leasing. Even after considering all credits, that comes out to around $28k for a base model. Not bad, especially for a BMW, but especially since one would still need to wait for a good six or more months to realize the tax credit savings, that certainly gives a lot of people pause, especially those who are financing the purchase.
True, but I’m sure you can work the dealers in your area to bring down the purchase price even more…since all those discounts, incentives, etc are not from any dealer.
If the current i3 had a range of 214 miles instead of 114, I might recommend it. It is a very good bev overall if don’t mind it’s “functional” look….which is fine to me btw
