Rwd? Fwd? Awd?
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I'd be way more interested in it as a commuter if it's RWD. |

That is a major deal in terms of driving dynamics. Odd that BMW aren't trumpeting that fact in marketing messaging (as compared to other EVs).
Wait -- bet I know why. They are simultaneously moving to FWD on some cars and don't want to kick that initiative in the teeth in order to help the i3. Not a good play cost-value wise; the i3 doesn't need the help and the FWD play doesn't need the damage. |

I also suspect that since many EV's are bought by tree hugging, non car enthusiasts, rwd is a term they associate with scary and poorly suited to fluffy white stuff falling from the sky.
