Anyone familiar with electric vehicles know that the absence of engine noise can make the driving experience somewhat well... quiet. And for some people, that's just what they need, according to a new spot for the BMW i3.

The spot, which is airing with the Olympics (of which our preferred automaker is a sponsor), tells the story of a teenage boy who gets the idea to sneak out when he realizes that that his dad's new car is dead silent. The joy ride is pretty awesome, and showcases some of the neat features that comes with the car, such as a phone app that shows where it's at.

If getting acquainted with this stylish new BMW model is your prerogative, you don't have long to wait. It will be arriving at our Knoxville, TN dealership before you know it.

And if you're worried about someone borrowing your i3 without your knowing? Well, we have an app for that.
