Over 800,000 charging points.

Whether you’re on a trip or going about your daily routine. You are guaranteed to find plenty of charging options with over 800,000 charging points throughout Europe. The BMW Charging Network⁷ is being continuously expanded to provide access to even more charging stations.

Plug & Charge. Charge & go.

More than just charging technology. BMW Plug & Charge takes you into the future of electric mobility. The system automatically detects and authenticates your car as soon as you connect it to a Plug & Charge capable charging station. And, thanks to the multi-contract function, you can choose one of several saved charging contracts from different providers. Whether private or business. It's up to you.

The charging times of electric cars.

Charging your electric car at high-power charging stations is the fastest method. You benefit from shorter charging times and higher charging speeds thanks to the high charging power at these DC charging stations. For instance, the new BMW iX3 takes only ten minutes to charge for 309 - 372 kilometres⁴.

Benefits of the Multifunction Charger.

The Multifunction Charger lets you charge your vehicle when out and about. When used with the appropriate Mode 3 adapter, you can use it at any public AC charging station with a power output of up to 11 kW. The 6-metre cable gives you plenty of room to park at the charging station. You can also charge your vehicle at home using the adapter supplied.

Straightforward charging.

Intelligent charging flap.

The intelligent charging flap of your new BMW iX3 makes charging simpler and easier. The flap opens automatically as soon as your vehicle detects that you wish to charge. Once you have removed the charging plug, the flap closes automatically after a few seconds.

Spacious storage compartment under the bonnet.

You can store the Multifunction Charger and associated adapters in the spacious 40-litre storage compartment under the bonnet of your new BMW iX3. The storage compartment can also be used for the fast charging cable (Mode 3) for public AC charging and the tyre repair kit Plus, for example.

Every journey tailored to your individual needs.

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 The stated values are based on the mandatory WLTP measurement procedure. The real life values depend on various factors, e.g. cargo weight, driving style, route, weather conditions, auxiliary electrical consumption (including air conditioning), tires, battery state of health.

³ The charging performance depends on vehicle equipment, the state of charge and health of the battery, battery temperature, individual driving profile, use of auxiliary users, ambient temperature, and the charging power provided at the charging station.

⁴ The recharged range within 10 minutes of high-power charging was determined in accordance with ISO12906 in the WLTP cycle. This, as well as the charging performance, depends on vehicle equipment, the state of charge and health of the battery, battery temperature, individual driving profile, use of auxiliary users, ambient temperature, and the charging power provided at the charging station.

⁵ The My BMW app is compatible with all BMW cars from model year 2014 onwards. It needs ConnectedDrive Services equipment to be fitted, and use of a compatible smartphone. The availability and functions of the My BMW App are market-dependent.

⁶ Market-specific offer applies to new vehicles purchased from BMW branches and dealerships in Europe in the BMW Charging network.
