Possible new rider with questions

That's probably overstating their similarities. Some Mini electrics do use the i3's propulsion motor and maybe motor electronics and transaxle. But I think that's about it. Even though some Mini battery packs are a similar capacity to the 94 Ah i3, the battery packs are different.

Sharing a platform usually means sharing the entire rolling skateboard chassis which definitely isn't true for the i3 and any Mini electric.

Yes, sorry for spreading my misremembered info. I must have been thinking about the powertrain.

There’s no way in heck I’ll pay an equivalent of gas money. The whole point if ev is no gas. Cheaper. So what then? If evgo is such a rip off why in the hell use it. Sheesh.

Aren’t there ways or places that are like half or less then half gas? Not home.

The whole point in ev is save money on gas.
