BMW has kicked off the new year with a bang, as the highly-anticipated electric 3 Series has already seen its order books open months ahead of schedule. The German luxury automaker's decision to release the all-electric 3 Series earlier than expected is a clear indication of the growing demand for eco-friendly vehicles. Industry insiders point to the increasing pressure on car manufacturers to meet stringent emissions targets and the rising popularity of electric vehicles among consumers. As a result, BMW is likely to sell out of its initial production run quickly, setting the stage for a thrilling competition in the electric luxury sedan market.
