BMW has announced a pricing realignment for their incredibly popular BMW i3 and BMW i3s, to ensure that customers can continue to benefit from the UK Government Plug In Car Grant.
This comes as a reaction to the government’s latest update regarding the EV grant scheme for those wishing to make the switch. You learn more about this, here.
On the road pricing for the BMW i3 120Ah now starts at £33,805 and £34,805 for the sporty BMW i3s 120Ah. This means that they are then eligible for a government plug-in grant application.
