Both the i3 and i8 will be profitable. Just over 700 customers have ordered the i3 globally. Now that the car is official we expect to see this number increase.

I think 400 of them is in Norway, which is easily explained as with the taxes.
As i said above, the I3 cost half of what a F30 320d cost here.
And taking into consideration that an I3 will let you pass on payed road's, that's also a benefit.
