Back in 2015, BMW lent the\u00a0Los Angeles Police Department some BMW i3<\/a>\u00a0squad cars, in an attempt to win a bid with the Department to supply i3s. BMW ended up winning that contract and ended up supplying the LAPD with one hundred i3s each year, for three years, from 2016-2019. Now, though, those very i3s are currently up for sale.<\/p>\n The dealership which provided the cars, New Century BMW, is now selling all of them as CPO models. Almost all of them have low miles, under 20,000 miles, and they\u2019re all the same spec. All LAPD BMW i3 BEVs are in the Deka World trim, with the standard 19\u2033 wheels and the older 22 kWh battery pack, despite newer models having been given bigger battery packs. So they only have about 81 miles of max range, at least when new.<\/p>\n
