How to properly charge the BMW i3 battery?

I recently purchased a BMW i3 and I am wondering about the best practices for charging the battery. Should I charge it every night or wait until it is low? Also, is it better to use a fast charger or a regular outlet? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Congratulations on your new BMW i3, Tony! It's important to keep in mind that the battery life of your car will depend on how well you take care of it. The best practice for charging is to keep your battery between 20-80% and to avoid letting it reach a 100% or go below 20% frequently. As for charging every night, it's not necessary unless you are planning on taking a long trip the next day.

Hi Tony, I have been driving an i3 for a couple of years now and have found that using a regular outlet at home is sufficient for daily charging. However, if you do plan on taking a longer trip, it would be best to use a fast charger for more efficient charging. Also, make sure to fully charge the battery at least once a month to maintain its health.
