I recently purchased a BMW i8 and I'm curious about the best way to charge the battery. Are there any tips or tricks for maximizing efficiency?
ReplyThe most efficient way to charge your BMW i8's battery is by using a Level 2 charger, which can be installed at your home or office. This can fully charge your battery in 2-3 hours, compared to the 8-10 hours it takes with a standard outlet. It's a worth investment if you plan on using your i8 as a daily driver.
Another tip for maximizing efficiency is to use the Eco Pro mode while driving. This will limit the amount of power used by the air conditioning and heating systems, allowing more energy to be directed towards charging the battery.
I've found that pre-conditioning my BMW i8 before leaving on a trip helps to conserve battery power. By using the app or key fob to turn on the air conditioning or heating, the car will be at a comfortable temperature when I get in, reducing the need for energy-hungry systems during my commute.
