    The i3 is one of the most underrated cars ever made.

      Yep take a look at the moose test results of the i3s. 79 km/h which is right up there with the best. The i3 handles so much better than you would think with skinny tyres and high height.

    LOL great video! Maybe that viper was just scared of the wet because otherwise your i3 is just too fast. I hope we get to see a hot lap eventually

      @@mike_t_007 I actually got the i3 not knowing too much about it until I really looked into it. Is a non Rex and is a 2014 base model. Even being base is still worth it. Is just fun knowing you can charge it, turn on and take off without ever going to a gas station ever again, that is if you get the Rex. Honestly, I would go for a Rex better I did max it out and got stuck in the road 😅😬 thank God I had a friend following me.

    Everyone should definitely have an i3. You were presumably flagged as the max speed isn’t high enough to be safe on those straights?

    They should have made a Rally Version of it and it would have sold like hotcakes... Think Ford Focus, Subaru Impreza etc... Sadly they focussed on the enviromental aspect too much and made the car sound boring like a Prius, when IRL it can beat a M3 up to 80km/h

  • @mr.tomyum732

    That’s awesome! Was that just with the traction control off?

    • @ojannen
      @ojannen Před 2 lety +2

      It was likely in roller/dyno mode which disables traction control, abs, and brake regen.

    • @alexandrefaustino2448
      @alexandrefaustino2448 Před rokem

      yeah you can't turn off esc. On my i3s it allow you a very subtle drift almost 0 counter steer drift but it is super fun and at red light it has some punch
