What all-electric BMW models are available?

BMW currently offers three all-electric models: the BMW i4 Gran Coupe, the BMW iX SUV, and the BMW i7 sedan. Other all-electric models, such as the i5 sedan, are set to launch soon.

How long does it take to charge a BMW EV?

BMW EVs can be charged using three primary methods: at-home, Level 2 public, and DC fast charging. At-home and Level 2 chargers offer comparable charging times, providing up to 30 miles of range per hour. With DC fast charging, you can replenish the battery for a 108-mile range in 10 minutes. Even using a standard power outlet, you can charge your EV's battery at a rate of four miles of range per hour.

Does servicing an EV cost more?

The maintenance requirements for EVs differ from those of gas vehicles. As a result, owning an all-electric vehicle could save you time and money on maintenance. For example, EVs don't require oil changes and other services commonly required for gas vehicles.
