| The BMW i3’s Designer Gets Philosophical About Its Interior |
Feb 27th, 2015 |
|
From the March 2015 issue of Car and Driver Designed from the inside out, BMW’s i3 is all sustainable natural fibers, hand-rubbed eucalyptus wood, and avant-garde design.

In America, we like our people-movers in the shape of SUVs, because of all the off-roading we never do.
