Easy rider - Charging an electric car is easy – simply plug in to a public or home charging point and the battery will top up. It’s convenient and intuitive, and with the My BMW app, you can check on your charging progress remotely.

Economy, charging and batteries BMW hybrid and electric vehicles feature a lithium iOn battery, which powers an electric motor. In plug-in hybrid models, this supports the combustion engine and enables the car to travel on zero-emissions power over short distances. In electric vehicles, the system replaces a combustion engine, and you can expect a range of up to 380 miles in selected models. The battery comes with an 8-year/100,000 mile warranty, and can be charged using a domestic three-pin socket, a 11kW home wallbox (recommended) or a public charging point.

Why choose BMW hybrid or electric?

Range is key for many motorists who are looking to switch to an electric model, and with several BMW vehicles boasting a range of over 300 miles (WLTP cycle), there’s no need to worry about running out of charge. There’s no compromise on performance either – thanks to their instant torque output, selected BMW electric cars can complete the 0-62mph sprint in under four seconds.
