Electric vehicles are becoming more and more popular as automakers all over the world are engineering high-tech models for drivers around Miami and beyond. One thing you might read about is range anxiety, which is where drivers fret over whether they will make it to a charging station on time before their EV’s battery completely runs out. 

Thanks to the BMW EV’s range, you have nothing to worry about with regard to finding a public charging station when you’re on a summer road trip or heading out to your favorite weekend getaway. Find out everything about the BMW EV range with our guide.

Have a Strategy for Your BMW EV Range for Best Results

The easiest way to overcome range anxiety thanks to your BMW EV range is to develop an overall strategy with your new vehicle. We’ve outlined a few things here.

  1. Understand Your BMW EV Range

What is the range of BMW electric cars? Even the lowest-level BMW model has a superior range compared to similar vehicles made by other manufacturers.

See the maximum ranges of popular 2024 BMW EVs here. 

  • BMW i4: Up to 307 miles
  • BMW i5: Up to 295 miles
  • BMW iX: Up to 311 miles
  • BMW i7: Up to 321 miles

So, what is the range of BMW electric cars? As you can see when answering, most of them reach nearly 300 miles as the standard BMW EV range when traveling around Hollywood.

  1. Plan Your Trips

Plan your daily trips, whether you’re heading to work, shopping, or a mountain resort destination several hundred miles away. You can see a national map of charging stations here with the U.S. Department of Energy. You can also tap into the My BMW App to point the way to the nearest charging stations and even plan your route to maximize public charging locations. When planning a trip, be flexible in case of road construction, traffic, or road closures. You don’t want to be stuck somewhere outside of Coconut Creek because of a detour.

  1. Be Efficient With Your EV

Rather than accelerating quickly or hitting the brakes suddenly, practice efficient driving by accelerating slowly and using regenerative braking. A steady pace wins the EV race! You also need to pay attention to the weather. Extremely hot or extremely cold temperatures can decrease your BMW EV range. Using the air conditioning or heater a lot can also lessen the range, so try to run the heat or air minimally as you drive if you aren’t near an EV charging station. Consumer Reports states that the ideal outdoor operating temperature to maximize your BMW EV range is around 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
