Video - The new BMW i3 crosses Europe and breaks a charging record

BMW has just achieved an impressive feat with its new i3. The German manufacturer traveled nearly 6,000 km from Norway to Spain, spending only 2 hours and 46 minutes plugged into charging stations. This record clearly demonstrates the progress made in terms of efficiency and fast charging.

Traveling across Europe in an electric car is no longer anything extraordinary. But doing so with less than three hours of charging over nearly 6,000 km is certainly worth noting.

This record has been significantly broken.
