The ADME Newsroom is a news aggregator. Headlines, excerpts and article images remain the property of their original publishers, are shown for the purpose of reporting news, and always link to and credit the original reporting. Items marked “file image” use manufacturer-supplied press imagery of the vehicle referenced; vehicle and brand names are trademarks of their respective owners.

ADME commentary

The ADME angle

The arrival of the BMW i3 as part of the 3 Series lineup will likely draw more customers into BMW showrooms, potentially increasing foot traffic and leading to more sales opportunities.

What it means for the order bank

BMW's decision to offer an all-electric version of the 3 Series indicates a commitment to EV technology and a desire to appeal to customers looking for alternative fuel options.

This move by BMW will likely put pressure on competitors to respond with their own EV offerings, potentially changing the competitive landscape of the Australian market.

Competitor response and market dynamics

As the i3 becomes available, Australian dealers can expect to see increased interest in EVs from customers who may have been waiting for a premium brand like BMW to enter the market.

The i3's presence in the 3 Series lineup will also give dealers an opportunity to promote the benefits of EV ownership to a wider audience, potentially increasing sales and revenue.

Action plan

This week, dealers can start preparing for the arrival of the i3 by training staff on the benefits and features of the vehicle, and reviewing their sales strategies to ensure they are equipped to handle increased customer interest in EVs.
