That is not the point.
The i3 is a model from BMWi it has no bearing with standard BMW Portfolio.
Scott, if this was the intent... They shouldn't have used 3, 8 and now (rumored) 5 as these are paralleled too easily to the BMW lineup.

At least BMW i is named better than "Model S" I have to admit.
Tesla in a flattering way is copying Ford in the beginning.

Model A...
Model T...

Model S
Model E [3] III
Model X
