BMW i3 Repair Manuals – PDF & USB (2013–2022)
The BMW i3 marked a bold leap into sustainable urban mobility. Introduced in 2013, the i3 was BMW’s first mass-produced electric vehicle, built on a revolutionary carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) chassis and featuring a fully electric powertrain or optional Range Extender (REx) gasoline engine. Lightweight, compact, and technologically advanced, the i3 was offered in various configurations with different battery capacities from 60 Ah to 120 Ah.
These OEM BMW i3 factory repair manuals are available in searchable PDF and USB formats and cover every aspect of the i3’s service requirements. Whether you’re maintaining a standard Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) or a REx model, these manuals include diagnostics, wiring diagrams, battery servicing, charging system troubleshooting, and more — all sourced from official BMW workshop documentation.
