Accurately calculate the charging time and battery level for your BMW i4 eDrive40 electric vehicle. Plan optimal charging stops, estimate costs, and maximize efficiency on your next electric vehicle journey with our free calculator.
This is to protect the battery. When the battery level approaches 80%, the vehicle automatically reduces charging power to extend battery life
Try to charge when battery level is low, and choose charging stations that match your vehicle's maximum charging power
Calculations are based on ideal conditions. Actual charging time is affected by temperature, actual charging station output power, and other factors
Vehicle efficiency is affected by weight, aerodynamic design, battery and motor efficiency, and other factors
The eDrive40 is more efficient at 3.59 mi/kWh vs M50's 3.22 mi/kWh, due to single motor setup and less aggressive power tuning.
BMW's 5th generation eDrive technology shows excellent reliability. Early i4 models report minimal degradation after 50,000 miles.
BMW limits peak charging to 200kW (vs Tesla's 250kW) but maintains higher speeds longer, resulting in similar overall charging times.
