BMW i3 Live Pics from NYC World Premiere

We were in attendance today at the NYC world premiere event for the BMW i3 sedan [Official Thread]. The i3 was simultaneously debuted in three cities - NYC, London and Beijing, and the cover was pulled back on the i3 at the same exact moment over live feeds at each location.

The debut event was held in a building bordering the High Line Park in NYC, a 1-mile linear park built on a 1.45-mile section of a former New York elevated subway track. It was quite the appropriate venue as both the i3 and the High Line Park represents sustainability mentality and creating something with an eye towards recycling (since the the railway was recycled into an urban park).

Two i3 models were on display for the reveal - one in Andesite Silver and the other in Solar Orange.

The i3 marks the very first electric vehicle by BMW and launches the BMW i brand, with the BMW i8 hybrid electric car to come next (in 2014). There will be other BMW i models coming.

Enjoy our photos.
