What's the difference between the BMW i3 REx and the BMW i3 BEV?

I'm considering buying a BMW i3, but I'm not sure which one to choose. Can you explain the difference between the BMW i3 REx and the BMW i3 BEV and help me decide which one is better for my needs?

The BMW i3 REx stands for Range Extender, which means it has a small gasoline engine that can generate electricity when the battery runs out. On the other hand, the BMW i3 BEV stands for Battery Electric Vehicle, which means it relies solely on its battery to power the car.

The BMW i3 REx has a slightly longer range compared to the BMW i3 BEV, but it also has a higher price point. If you have a daily commute that is longer than the BEV's range, then the REx might be a better option for you.
