Plus, with the BMW ChargingNetwork, you're never far from a charging station.
Compare range and charging.


Estimated ranges attainable when battery fully charged & under ideal driving conditions. Actual range will vary depending on multiple factors, including but not limited to: vehicle model, tire & wheel selections, driving style, accessories used, traffic conditions, outside temperatures, & charging frequency. Ranges of recently released, new model year electric vehicles may not yet be fully certified by EPA. Estimated EV range is based on preliminary BMW AG tests based on EPA's testing procedure standards. See www.fueleconomy.gov. EPA publishes a blended range average of all wheel size/tire combinations which may differ from the range presented here.
Factors that increase range.
Mild temperatures.
A further range is made possible under mild ambient temperatures.
Economical driving.
An anticipatory, smooth driving style optimizes your range by using less energy.
Flatter terrain.
Flatter terrain means your electric motor doesn't have to work as hard, minimizing the use of energy.
Factors that decrease range.
Extreme temperatures.
While electric cars are equipped for extreme weather, excessively hot or cold weather can reduce your range.
Sporty driving.
Aggressive accelerations and high speeds use more energy, while less is recovered from hard braking.
Heating & cooling.
Cabin heating and cooling requires electric power and uses battery energy.
Steeper terrain.
All vehicles work harder going uphill. Driving up steep inclines uses more energy than on flatter terrain.
Range means confidence for BMW drivers.
Switching to maximum range.
When using the Max Range function, drive power is reduced and the maximum speed is limited to 60 mph. Comfort features, such as air conditioning or seat heating, are intelligently reduced in order to use as much energy as possible on forward propulsion. The Max Range function is available for many fully electric BMW models. Please contact your BMW Center for more detailed information.
