The quirky BMW i3 and sports variant i3s were on sale in Australia between 2014 and 2021. The BMW i3 city car had some unique features such as its carbon-fibre construction and a range-extender (REx) version, which utilises a small 650 cc BMW motorbike engine as a generator to charge the battery while you’re driving for an additional 100 km range.
Older BMW i3 models were available with 22 kWh or 33 kWh battery packs depending on when they were manufactured, while the latest models came with 42 kWh packs.

| BMW i3 | $68,700 | 260Km | 42Kwh |
| BMW i3s | $69,900 | 260Km | 42Kwh |
