Questions and answers
I have an i3 range extender…when I charge my car fully, it only shows 60 miles. It’s a 2016 model. Is this right or something wrong with My car.
Yes, it is normal for a 2016 BMW i3 Range Extender to show only about 60 miles of range when fully charged, especially if the battery has aged. Battery capacity reduces over time, leading to a lower estimated range. The displayed range also depends on recent driving habits and conditions.

@Mr. Anderson does this mean that it will only go for 60 miles or would it be more than that? Would I need to constantly charge it every 60 miles? Thanks
