BMW i3 Owners Shocked By $30,000 Battery Replacement, One Quoted $71,000!

Even if one of the eight cells in the battery go bad, i3 owners are left with a huge repair bill

First released in 2013, the i3 marked BMW‘s initial foray into the realm of mainstream electric vehicles. Primarily designed as a city car rather than a long-distance traveler, it wrapped up its U.S. journey in 2021 with approximately 45,100 units sold on this side of the pond.

Three years after its demise, the BMW i3 remains a dapper little puddle jumper that isn’t too expensive on the used-car market. Like most luxury cars though, and especially ones from established European marques, it’s not the initial cost but the lurking maintenance expenses that can catch you off guard.
We’ve encountered numerous i3 owners lamenting and reporting that dealerships frequently demand over $30,000 for battery replacements, with one customer allegedly quoted a staggering $71,000.
