Used brake pedals vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
Yes, the BMW i3 does have a conventional brake pedal — while it uses regenerative braking as its primary means of slowing down, a traditional hydraulic brake pedal and system are still fitted for additional and emergency braking. This is standard across all i3 variants, including the standard battery versions and the i3s. You can source a used brake pedal from a breaker in the normal way.
The BMW i3 ran in a single generation from 2013, with a facelift arriving in 2017 — so a 2014 pedal comes from the pre-facelift car and a 2018 pedal from the facelifted version. The brake pedal box and mounting are unlikely to have changed significantly across this boundary, but because mid-generation running-gear updates can affect pedal assemblies, you should confirm compatibility with the breaker against your exact registration rather than assume a straight swap.
The i3s has a sportier tune and a slightly uprated powertrain, but the brake pedal and its mounting assembly are part of the shared bodyshell structure rather than a performance-specific component. Trim level and the i3s designation should not affect pedal fitment, so a pedal from a standard i3 and one from an i3s are likely to interchange — but confirm with the breaker against both registrations to be sure, as this is not guaranteed.
The i3 REx carries a small two-cylinder petrol generator in the rear, but the brake pedal and front-end braking system are shared with the standard battery-electric i3. The REx's additional weight is relatively modest, so no significant brake pedal differences are expected between the two drivetrains. That said, ask the breaker to cross-reference by registration to rule out any minor build differences.
No — trim levels on the i3 such as Lodge, Suite, and Atelier relate to interior materials and equipment choices and have no bearing on the brake pedal or its fitment. The brake pedal is identical across trim levels, so you do not need to match trim when sourcing from a breaker. Any cosmetic differences between donor cars will not affect whether the pedal fits your vehicle.
The BMW i3 received its facelift in 2017, bringing exterior styling changes and updated battery options, but the fundamental brake pedal assembly sits within the shared platform structure that carried across both phases of production (2013–2017 pre-facelift, 2017 onwards facelift). It is plausible that a pre-facelift and post-facelift pedal are interchangeable, but whether a specific pedal crosses that boundary is something you should confirm with the breaker using your registration, as mid-generation component updates cannot be ruled out.
