Notes and sources

  1. Fuel economy: not published. A fuel-economy figure was published for this car (31.0 mpg) and is withheld here: it is not comparable with the other cars in this list.
  2. CO₂: EPA's charge-weighted composite — the miles it assumes are driven on grid electricity are credited at zero tailpipe — 22 g/mi, or 14 g/km. It is lower than the tailpipe rating a petrol car states, and it is not what the car emits with the battery empty.
  3. Fuel cost: not estimated. A plug-in hybrid's fuel use depends on how much of its driving is done on the battery, so no cost is computed for it.
  4. Not published for this car. The record's own reason is free to read with an account.
  5. Crash rating: not published. NHTSA lists this car (14449) and publishes no overall rating for it: it rates a car overall only when it has run the frontal, side and rollover tests on it.
  6. Recall campaigns: NHTSA lists none for the 2020 i3 as of .
  7. Not published for this car. The record's own reason is free to read with an account.
  8. Not published for this car. The record's own reason is free to read with an account.
  9. Not published for this car. The record's own reason is free to read with an account.
  10. This car is measured on the plug-in scale: miles per gallon on fuel, a charge-weighted CO₂ rating that credits its electric miles, and horsepower. MPGe and the plain tailpipe rating do not apply to it.
  11. Price: no price is published for this car. NHTSA's CAFE market data prices this market's cars by compliance configuration, and it lists none matching this one.
