How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?
The estimated real-world range for BMW i5 xDrive40 (2024-2025) is 427 km, ranking it №148 out of 356 ranked positions. Several conditions can influence this range:
Speed: The battery drains faster at higher speeds.
Temperature: Extreme temperatures can impact range.
Terrain: Range is reduced on hilly or mountainous terrain.
Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors, such as frequent acceleration and braking, decrease efficiency.
Feature utilization: Climate control and media system usage also affect range.
These figures are approximations, and your actual driving range may vary. When planning trips, consider these factors and be prepared for potential charging stops.
What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?
The BMW i5 xDrive40 (2024-2025) in Europe is equipped with a CCS Type 2 charging port.
