How to maintain the optimal hybrid battery performance in the BMW i8?

I recently purchased a BMW i8 and I want to make sure I am taking proper care of the hybrid battery to maintain its longevity and performance. What steps should I follow to ensure the optimal performance of the hybrid battery?

Hi Mark, congratulations on your new BMW i8! To maintain the optimal performance of the hybrid battery, make sure to charge it fully at least once a week and avoid fully draining the battery. Also, try to keep the battery level between 40-80% to prevent strain on the battery cells. Finally, regular maintenance checks at a BMW dealership can also help ensure the longevity of your battery.

Hey Mark, to keep your BMW i8's hybrid battery in top shape, try using the eDrive mode for shorter trips and save the SPORT driving mode for longer trips where you can take full advantage of the hybrid system. This will help optimize the battery's charge and performance. And remember to always use the BMW-approved charging equipment.

Hi Mark, one of the key factors in maintaining a healthy hybrid battery is avoiding extreme temperatures. So make sure to park your BMW i8 in a covered or shaded area during hot weather and avoid leaving it in extreme cold temperatures. This will help preserve the performance and longevity of your battery.
