BMW i3 Coupe Concept revealed for Los Angeles Auto Show

BMW has released the first details about the i3 coupe concept before its debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show.

Essentially a three-door version of the i3 concept, the coupe features a revised exterior with a modified front fascia, restyled doors and new side skirts. There's also an updated rear end with a new tailgate and a revised bumper. Despite various changes, the distinctive 'stream flow' design makes the model instantly recognisable as an 'i' variant. This concept has a two-tone exterior with 20-inch alloy wheels wrapped in low rolling-resistance tyres.

The model measures 3,964mm long, 1,768mm wide and 1,555mm tall with a wheelbase that spans 2,570mm.

The interior of the i3 Concept Coupe is designed to feel spacious and have a lounge-style ambience. Leather, wool and other renewable raw materials are used throughout to make the car eco-friendly, along with light eucalyptus wood trim and brushed aluminum accents.

The coupe uses a 170bhp electric engine that puts out 250Nm of torque to the real wheels through a single-speed transmission. It is powered by a lithium-ion battery which enables the model to travel up to 160km on a single charge.
