Comment on Cost of owning a BMW i3

I think this might have been posted here before, but think this is an interesting comparison as well: https://cleantechnica.com/2019/06/22/toyota-corolla-vs-tesla... It is US centric though, so not a perfect comparison.

So far I have had no issues with my 3. $115 for tire rotation and state inspection is the only thing I have spent any money on so far in 15 months and over 20,000 miles. So that is less than $10/month in maintenance. And I am spending about half as much in electricity as I was for gas. The insurance was a big jump from a 2011 Ford Focus, but that car has cost significantly more to maintain in the same time frame.
