BMW i3 Battery Wholesale: Minimum Order Quantity – Why CNS Lets Independent Shops, Startups & Small Fleets Buy Just 3 Packs (Not 20) and Still Get Factory Pricing, Full Warranty & Plug-and-Play Reliability

“A mobile EV technician in Portland wanted to offer BMW i3 battery replacements—but every ‘wholesale’ supplier demanded MOQs of 10, 15, even 25 packs.

He couldn’t tie up $80,000 in inventory for a service he’d only perform 2–3 times a year.
One vendor even said, ‘If you can’t buy 20, you’re not serious.’
Then he found CNS BATTERY—the only global supplier with a BMW i3 Battery Wholesale: Minimum Order Quantity of just 3 packs, no hidden fees, full 2-year warranty, and true plug-and-play compatibility.
His first order? Three 62kWh packs. Installed them over six weeks. Zero comebacks. Now, he’s known as ‘the i3 battery guy’ in Oregon—and never had to mortgage his shop.”

If you’re a small repair shop, independent installer, or emerging EV fleet operator, you’ve likely hit the same wall:

  • High MOQs that lock capital in slow-moving inventory
  • “Wholesale” pricing that vanishes below 10 units
  • Pressure to commit to one capacity (e.g., only 45kWh) when your customers need 50kWh or 62kWh
  • Fear of buying incompatible or uncertified packs with no recourse

The industry myth? That real wholesale requires bulk volume. But in today’s fragmented EV aftermarket—where demand is steady but scattered—flexibility beats volume. You don’t need a warehouse full of batteries. You need one reliable source that treats 3 packs like 30.

CNS BATTERY shatters the old wholesale model. As specialists in BMW i3 battery systems since 2018, we know most shops don’t replace i3 batteries daily. So we engineered a program where MOQ = 3, mix-and-match capacities are welcome, and every pack—whether #1 or #100—gets factory-grade cells, full documentation, and OEM-level validation.

Here’s what “low-MOQ wholesale” really means at CNS:

  • Minimum Order Quantity: Just 3 packs total (any combination of 45kWh / 50kWh / 62kWh)
  • True wholesale pricing from unit #1—no “retail until 10” tricks
  • Mix capacities in one order: Need two 62kWh + one 45kWh? Done.
  • Full 2-year/80,000 km warranty on every pack—same as bulk buyers
  • Plug-and-play ready: No coding, no BMS flashing, no diagnostic headaches

Unlike traditional distributors who treat small orders as “inconvenient,” CNS built its entire supply chain around agile, low-volume professionalism—because the future of EV repair isn’t mega-dealerships. It’s skilled independents like you.


Why Low MOQ Doesn’t Mean Compromised Quality

Some assume low-MOQ suppliers cut corners. Not here. Every CNS BMW i3 battery—regardless of order size—includes:

🔋 Genuine New CATL NMC Cells

  • Not refurbished, not recycled—brand-new prismatic cells from China’s top EV battery maker
  • Each cell batch traceable via internal code

🧠 Europe & North America-Tuned BMS

  • Validated for CCS Combo, CHAdeMO, and OBD-II compliance
  • Accurate range display, fast-charging support, zero ghost codes

📦 Professional-Grade Packaging

  • Fumigation-free wooden crates, shock indicators, anti-static wrap
  • Ready for ocean or air freight—even on small orders

📑 Full Compliance Documentation

  • UN38.3, MSDS, CE/RCM/FCC (as needed), commercial invoice
  • Everything required for resale, insurance, or inspection

“I run a two-bay shop in Vermont. I ordered three packs last year—two 62kWh, one 50kWh. All installed cleanly, charged fast, and my customers love the range. CNS treated me like a partner, not a ‘small account.’”
