FAQ: THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON BMW ELECTRIC CARS.
What is an electric car?
A purely electric car (BEV, Battery Electric Vehicle) drives exclusively with electricity. It therefore has no combustion engine to power the vehicle. The electricity is stored in a battery. Its capacity determines the range of the e-car, in other words the distance that can be covered with one battery charge.
Purely electric cars are ideal for users who can charge electric cars at work or at home. At the same time, the extension of the public charging infrastructure is being pursued intensively. New charging stations are therefore appearing all the time in urban areas and along motorways. This also includes a large number of high-power charging stations for ultra-fast charging while travelling, e.g. at our partner IONITY in Europe. In the future, long-distance journeys will become easier and easier as a result. In the future, long-distance journeys will become easier and easier as a result.
What advantages does an electric car have?
An electric car offers an entirely new, emotionally charged driving sensation. Thanks to the torque available from a stand-still, you experience fascinating electric dynamics and spontaneous acceleration. At the same time, the almost silent electric engine gives you a new and relaxed driving experience.
When actually driving, a BEV is also emission-free (the term also used is “locally”) and thus offers maximum protection for our environment.
Additional benefits of BEVs are the highest category of country-specific subsidies and tax incentives that they entail.What factors affect the performance of the high-voltage battery in my electric car?
A significant external factor that influences the performance and capacity of a battery is the temperature. You may have noticed the same thing with your mobile phone battery. Very cold temperatures can limit battery performance in particular. It is similar with your electric vehicle. However, our optimised performance strategies minimise the effect that temperature can have.
And did you know that the capacity of the battery also provides information about your remaining range? In addition to temperature, the range is influenced by other factors that affect how fast energy is consumed, such as the use of air conditioning, the current load, and your driving style.
If you ever need to recharge while away from home, your BMW electric vehicle will be preconditioned for the DC charging point* at your destination, which means the high-voltage battery is brought to the optimum operating temperature by the time you get there. This increases the maximum power while charging and reduces the amount of time you need.
* Only relevant for BMW electric vehicles.What do I have to consider if my electric car is left standing still or parked for a longer period of time?
If you don’t plan to use your vehicle for a longer period of time, such as during a holiday, there are various ways to positively effect the lifespan of your battery. Whenever possible, maintain a charge of between 30 and 50 per cent and park your vehicle in a cool place or in the shade during summer months and keep it in a garage in the winter. In addition, the vehicle should not be left plugged in for charging when stationary for longer periods of time.

FAQ: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT LEASING AND FINANCING OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES.
What are the benefits of leasing or financing an electric vehicle?
Leasing:
- The customer does not have to take care of the re-marketing of the electric vehicle after the leasing contract has expired.
- The customer can order various services such as Service Inclusive on top.
Financing:
- The customer is the owner of the electric vehicle.
- The customer can finance the electric vehicle over a longer period compared to leasing.
Is insurance included within an electric vehicle leasing or financing?
Within leasing yes, within financing no > however, there is the option of taking an insurance through the BMW insurance partner.
Are there government incentives for the leasing of financing of electric vehicles available?
Country-specific. Most countries offer now state subsidies for electric vehicles. In addition to the state, additional municipal subsidies are often offered.
Are there tax advantages for the leasing of financing of electric vehicles?
Country-specific. Yes, in some countries tax benefits such as the elimination of vehicle tax are offered.
Does BMW offer a leasing or financing with no down payment?
Country-specific. In most countries, leasing or financing agreements are possible without a down payment.
Energy consumption and CO2 emissions.
BMW iX xDrive50:
Power consumption in kWh/100 km (combined): 26.6
CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 0BMW iX3:
Power consumption in kWh/100 km (combined): 18.9–18.5
CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 0BMW i4 M50:
Power consumption in kWh/100 km (combined): 22.5–18
CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 0BMW i4 eDrive40:
Power consumption in kWh/100 km (combined): 19.1–16.1
CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 0BMW i3:
Power consumption in kWh/100 km (combined): 14.2–12.9
CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 0BMW i3s:
Power consumption in kWh/100 km (combined): 14.7–12.9
CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 0The values of fuel consumptions, CO2 emissions and energy consumptions shown were determined according to the European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the version applicable at the time of type approval. The figures refer to a vehicle with basic configuration in Germany and the range shown considers optional equipment and the different size of wheels and tires available on the selected model.
The CO2 efficiency specifications are determined according to Directive 1999/94/EC and the European Regulation in its current version applicable. The values shown are based on the fuel consumption, CO2 values and energy consumptions according to the NEDC cycle for the classification.
When charging times are shown they can be affected by a number of factors such as type of charger, voltage supplied to the charger/car and type of current (AC or DC) supplied to the charger/car. The car also plays a role in charging times as it can be set by the driver to accept various different amperage and should preconditioning be used to heat or cool the vehicle while charging this will also affect the charging time.
The basis for the calculation of the charging times for 100 km range is the electric consumption of the vehicle based on the use of a high-Powered Charging station (HPC) or charging type and current as indicted in the literature above. The testing procedure measures are based on a 23 degrees Celsius battery start and ambient temperature with certification values excluding additional auxiliary consuming devices and systems within the vehicle such as seat heating, displays, air conditioning.
Individual consumption (fuel economy) may differ due to driving profile, vehicle load profile, auxiliary consumer usage, temperature, and ambient conditions. Consumption is based on WLTP or NEDC (whichever is indicated) best case conditions and is independently tested for BMW Group. If you are comparing this range with other models or brands make sure they are stating the same WLTP or NEDC testing regime. These results can be used to compare vehicles on a close to “like for like” basis but are unlikely to be achieved in real world conditions for reasons including temperature variation, driving conditions and the use of the auxiliary systems referred to above.

Please contact an authorised BMW dealer for specific information on vehicles and features available in New Zealand. Product changes may have been made since production of this content.
Note: To obtain NZ CO2 figures for vehicles imported by BMW Group NZ in relation to the NZ Clean Car discount or “FeeBate” you will need to contact your preferred dealer. The Clean Car discount figures sourced from your dealer will differ from those listed in the BMW owner’s handbook and reported figures as they have been converted by the NZ government to WLTP3 from figures derived through one of the following testing procedures: WLTP4 or NEDC or Japanese JC08 mode or Japanese 10-15 mode or CAFE test cycle.
For all vehicles not imported by BMW NZ (Used vehicle imports) you will need to contact the source market for these CO2 figures as BMW Group NZ has no access to and cannot source this CO2 data.
