BMW eMobility service, BMW Charging, provides access to over 10,000 partner charging stations across the UK. These include public charging provided by BP Pulse, plus access to high-power charging stations from IONITY.
BMW’s partner IONITY provides high-power electric charging stations for ultrafast charging along Europe’s main transit routes. The technology of the high-performance electric vehicle charging stations automatically optimises the charging speed to the maximum that your high-voltage battery allows. So a short coffee break is usually enough to sufficiently recharge your vehicle!
Thanks to the BP Pulse Wallbox, BMW i drivers can charge their cars up to 70% faster than when using a conventional 3-pin socket.
All New BMW i models now come with two cables:
✔ Standard BMW charging cable, which is five metres long and can plug into any conventional 3-pin socket.
✔ BMW AC Fast Charging Cable (Type 3) – for recharging at public AC Fast Charging Stations.
*These figures may not reflect real life driving results, which will depend upon a number of factors including the starting charge of the battery, accessories fitted (post-registration), variations in weather, driving styles and vehicle load. Figures shown are for comparability purposes. Only compare fuel consumption, CO2 and electric range figures with other cars tested to the same technical procedures. Plug-in hybrid vehicles require mains electricity for charging.
