Last week, we talked about additional uses for the battery of one of the standout 2016 BMW vehicles. Today, we want to talk a little more about the vehicle itself. The BMW i3 is the first electric production vehicle from the automaker, and every part of it was created with sustainability in mind. From the carbon fiber plastic which is the primary material to the previously mentioned battery, the 2016 BMW i3 is green through and through. But of course, it's still a BMW - so it also boasts 170 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, and provides an exciting and agile driving experience.
This combination of sustainability and ability makes the 2016 BMW i3 ideally suited for a police department trying to go a little greener, like the Los Angeles Police Department. The LAPD recently held a field trial of electric vehicles, including several options in their fleet to determine which was the best choice to add full time. After the trial period, the department selected the 2016 BMW i3 thanks to its top notch fuel efficiency, cutting edge technology and ConnectedDrive system, and its reliability on the road. The LAPD fleet will begin integrating 100 of these electric vehicles, utilizing them as part of the non-emergency fleet, and the uses for the models will include transportation of officers and community outreach.
If you are looking for an electric vehicle that still offers the excitement and capability you expect from BMW cars, Columbia, Ellicott City, and Baltimore, MD, drivers can take a cue from the LAPD and check out the 2016 BMW i3. With a fuel efficiency that will be as easy on your wallet as it is on the environment, and enough agility and power for a police car, the 2016 BMW i3 is the whole package.
