When the price matches the performance. An electric car could cost less than you think and even save you money. Compared to traditional petrol-powered cars, electric cars have lower running costs, and lower service and maintenance costs. At the same time, you can charge them inexpensively with the electricity tariff that is right for you. In many countries, locally emission-free or lower-emission cars and charging solutions are supported by state subsidies and tax incentives. Free parking spaces with charging stations are now available in many towns and cities – yet another benefit.

Electric car maintenance costs.
You'll save on service and maintenance costs with an electric car. Unlike vehicles with a combustion engine, electric cars have fewer wearing parts. There is therefore no need to replace spark plugs, oil filters and cambelts. At the same time, you'll save on repair costs due to the fact that electric cars have no exhaust pipe or clutch. And there's no need to change the oil during an inspection. A service is around 30% cheaper than with a petrol vehicle, saving you time and money.
The benefits and impact of electric vehicles.
Electric vehicles are now much more than just an investment in the future. They offer a range of benefits that can be helpful in terms of cost planning, day-to-day use and environmental impact. Find out whether or not an electric car will suit your own personal needs.
All about electromobility.
Electric range.
Our electric cars have a range that easily allows you to travel longer distances.
Charging on the go.
Thanks to our extensive charging solutions, you'll also always find the right charging solution near you for your electric car, even when you’re on the road. Make use of one of Europe's largest charging networks, which is growing all the time.
100% electric.
Drive dynamically, comfortably and, at the same time, locally emission-free. Prepare to be impressed by our fully electric cars with state-of-the-art technology and long ranges.
Plug-in hybrids: flexibly on the go.
BMW plug-in hybrid models combine the best of both worlds. You can drive locally emission-free with their electric drive over shorter distances or around town. And, as usual, their petrol engine will support you on longer journeys.

Provided technical data are measured according to the WLTP, not NEDC.
[1] Official data for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, power consumption and electric range was determined in accordance with the prescribed measuring procedure and corresponds to European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the applicable version. For ranges, data determined as per WLTP takes into account any optional equipment (available on the German market in this case). For vehicles that have been newly type approved since 1 January 2021, only the official data according to WLTP exists. In addition, NEDC values are deleted from the certificates of conformity as of 1 January 2023 by EC regulation 2022/195. For more information about NEDC and WLTP measuring procedures visit www.bmw.com/wltp
Further information about fuel consumption and official model-specific CO2 emissions of new passenger cars can be found in the "Guideline for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and electric power consumption for new passenger cars", available free of charge at all points of sale, at the Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH (DAT), Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern-Scharnhausen, Germany, and under https://www.dat.de/co2/.
[2] Range depends on various factors, in particular: individual driving style, route characteristics, outside temperature, heating/air conditioning, pre-conditioning.
[3] The charging performance depends on the state of charge, ambient temperature, individual driving profile and use of auxiliary consumers. The ranges shown are based on the WLTP best case. The charging times apply to ambient temperatures of 23 degrees Celsius after a preceding drive and may differ depending on the usage behaviour.
[4] The recharged range in km after 10 minutes of High-Power-Charging was determined according to DIN70080 in the WLTP cycle. It depends on the vehicle equipment, individual driving profile, ambient temperature, charging status and the use of additional consumers.
