MY BMW i3 -- Storage

In my previous car, a 2007 Toyota Prius (2nd Gen.) I had a place where I could store lots of stuff --  in the back of the car and under the floor.  The only thing I'm not satisfied with in the i3 is the lack of space for things that I like to carry with me.  The BMW i3 has no such area since the electric motor and range extender occupy all of the space beneath the floor.

The "frunk"  (aka the trunk in the front since the electric motor and range extender are in the back and under the floor) only has a small space that where you find the convenience (110-volt) charge cable and an electric air pump with a canister to seal a tire leak.  BMW also alerts an owner to the fact that the area is not water proof and that "misting" can occur in the frunk from a car wash.  The charge cable and air pump are in plastic bags because of this.  On the passenger side of the frunk is the windshield washer fluid tank, and the 12-volt battery used for the car accessories is also to the left of it; that battery is recharged when the car is charged.

 There is a small cubby-hole in both of the front doors where a few things can be stored, like umbrellas, ice scrapers, etc.

There is plenty of space in the rear for just about anything you might want to transport in the car, especially if you lower the back seats.  Lots of room for luggage, etc.  I also like the cover that hides the back of the car when the hatchback door is closed.

The glove box has a little space, but if you carry the BMW-supplied user manual and pouch there, not very much room left.

The area between the front seats has a small space for little things under the arm rest and just below it.

One could put some things in the back seats (either upright or folded down) if there was no need for people back there.  But you just know an occasion will arise when you do need to put someone in those seats.

I'm using my i3 as an in-city car, so perhaps concerns about storage would not be very important.  If only the back seats could be raised to provide some more hidey-holes for other things I've always carried in the trunk of my other cars.
