    Mobile App for Setting Climate Control

    Thanks! That works.

    Mobile App for Setting Climate Control

    Yes, I noticed the Chrome issue as well. We are going downhill instead of improving. But, the mbrace set the standard with the "Done" button in the left lower corner. I did an informal usability study with about 8 people at random: EVERYONE points the finger to the right lower corner after...

    Mobile App for Setting Climate Control

    Thanks! As others pointed out, MB needs to work on the app.

    Mobile App for Setting Climate Control

    Thanks for taking the time to share. I am still confused--feeling like I am in the wrong movie. I do not have this button. See screenshots:

    Mobile App for Setting Climate Control

    Where is that button? I only have "Climate control" and can "Set departure time" and "Deactivate"

    Mobile App for Setting Climate Control

    Yep, I know. I can determine the time presets (there are 3 presets), but it seems impossible to activate any of them.

    Mobile App for Setting Climate Control

    That helped and after logout and login I got it to work again. Maybe they should abandon the checkbox "Stay logged in for 30 days" if they cannot pull it off. thanks for the hint! BTW: Have you ever managed to do it via the dashboard menu. I tried to follow the instructions, but the menu items...

    Mobile App for Setting Climate Control

    I have problems with the mobile app to set the climate control. More often than not it is not syncing despite perfect Internet connection and trying it on different devices. See screenshots. Anyone know if MB plans to bring this app out of the beta stage? Or, did anyone find an alternative on...

    It seems to be all the time 100% (full). Also, did you read: http://bmwi3.blogspot.com/2014/12/bmw-i3-psa-no-there-is-nothing-wrong_8.html?m=1 ?

    Yes, and as you correctly pointed out, I can plug in at hoe as well. No problem. Forgive my ignorance, which display/screen is this? Take a picture for me and I can shoot another video with the display on all the time.

    Thanks for your comments! Two notes: Yes, it is hilly in Pittsburgh so I have to accelerate and decelerate quite a bit. Second, apologies, I was cheating: I recorded the trip back and then the trip to work. As it is each day the same trip it does not make a difference regarding the actual...

    OK, I did this for my trip from work (fully charged) to home (no charging at home) and then next day back to work. Check out this 5 min video (12 times faster then normal as it was shot with 2 frames per second, but plays here with 24 frames per second): http://vimeo.com/113661901

    Range - Temperature

    I have watched this--but for another reason. I use the remote climate control and it uses up "1 mile" to heat up the car, but I am conscientious about what it says when I park and what it says when I leave the house. I was initially afraid that this will use a ton, but it does not. <<You could...

    Something is up. I'm not sure what that is, but that is very poor economy. The Rav4 EV weighs about the same 4000 pounds, with likely worse aerodynamics, and for me to get 2.0 - 2.2 miles per kWh would take some INSANE driving. While I am German and used to drive on the Autobahn, I am driving...

    I see "2.0 mpkWh"

    Range - Temperature

    I did a few times driving down to 5-10 miles (in one case to 1 mile) and the estimate is accurate +/- 4 miles.

    You are all quite the engineers here: Thanks for sharing your insights! Today, it is about 60F here in Pittsburgh and the car is 100% charged and the display tells me a range of 60 miles in E mode (in the past this turns out to be an accurate estimate when I drive very carefully avoiding quick...

    I am still puzzled that some people talk about 80 miles range (without range extender) and I have never seen more than 67 miles in E mode.
