That sound wasn't coming from the car(!)... BUT from one of the rear passenger's luggage resting on the back of the front seats. The car's interior was build very well and it was very quiet. All you hear is the whirl of the electric engine as you drive. BMW had these i3 shuttle cars to get us around the Messe. The IAA is huge... its more like a BIG airport than like your typical convention center.
Gotcha. Thank you for the clarification. It sounded like the squeaks we have in the e90 :-)
