Similar for 2014-2022 BMW i3 over 80k miles : about $200 maintenance total, other than tires.

Cost to go a mile varied between 1/5 and 1/10 of ICE, but had limited range (which worked for me).

I had to change the brake disks on my 2014 i3 because they rusted too much as I didn’t use them enough. Remember to brake once in a while if you live in an area with salty roads.
