The BMW group recently announced that it has won its big to supply the LAPD with a fleet of 100 BMW i3 electric vehicles, a great step toward a greener Los Angeles and great news for the BMW brand. There was a trail period during which the BMW i3 was tested alongside other electric vehicles (EVs), but the i3 was ultimately selected over the competition.

If you’re a true performance vehicle connoisseur, then you’re going to want to pay attention to this next video. Continuing in the tradition of other performance models, BMW has announced that there will be a special edition BMW M4 limited to 700 units meant to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the BMW M3. The new special edition will be called the BMW M4 GTS, and it’s the first high-performance special edition in the M3/M4 model range that will be available in the North American market, so you could be one of the lucky 700!

The 2017 model i3 is set to release late this fall, so there’s still some time before it arrives in our showroom, but you can check out the video below for some more information.

What if you could have all of your important information connected throughout your home, vehicle, and devices?
