BMW eDRIVE
NOTES
The electric motors act as alternators and con-
vert the kinetic energy of the vehicle into elec-
trical energy.
Trip planning and special functions of
the navigation system
Several special functions of the navigation sys-
tem support trip planning taking into account
the electric range:
The high-voltage battery can be charged while
driving in different situations:
▷
The accelerator pedal is depressed less or
only slightly.
▷
The current range can be displayed in the
navigation system map view.
▷
The accelerator pedal is not depressed.
▷
When entering a destination, charging sta-
tions can be selected as points of interest.
The navigation system helps you to find
and add a charging station along the de-
sired route.
Displays in the instrument cluster
The displays on the instrument cluster provide
information about the current state of the drive
and visualize the system's use.

While driving
Energy-saving driving and
maximizing the range
▷
▷
▷
Activate Efficient mode to increase the ve-
hicle range.
Efficient mode, refer to page 310.
General information
Note the information on the expected
range.
Energy-saving driving is the basic prerequisite
for as large a range as possible. eDRIVE pro-
vides various functions that assist with an
energy-saving driving style. The eDRIVE func-
tions assist in checking the range and increase
it, if necessary.
Range prediction, refer to page 153.
Note the information on the current driving
condition.
Displays in the Live Vehicle menu, driving
condition, refer to page 155.
Before driving
▷
▷
▷
Note the information on the range.
Increasing the range, refer to page 309.
Note the information on the driving style.
Driving mode Efficient, refer to page 310.
Activate adaptive energy recovery.
eDRIVE allows pre-conditioning of the vehicle
before starting the trip. The stationary climate
control provides more range than using full air
conditioning while driving.
Depending on vehicle equipment: preheat-
ing/precooling during the charging process can
provide maximum range when driving off.
Adaptive recuperation, recuperative brak-
ing, refer to page 309.

Stationary climate control, refer to page 280.
Use battery thermal management to pre-
pare the vehicle for an upcoming charging.
