FAQs about Charging Your BMW EV at Home

Q: Where and how can I charge my electric BMW vehicle?

A: You can charge a BMW EV almost anywhere there is electricity. Since EV chargers automatically convert AC into DC, Barnstable drivers can charge their electric vehicle using everyday electrical outlets in their home.

Q: How long does it take to charge a BMW EV at home?

A: With an ordinary 110- or 120-volt home power outlet (Level 1 charger), it takes about 24 hours to fully charge a BMW EV's battery. With a professionally installed (Level 2) 240-volt BMW home charger (BMW i Wallbox), people in Wareham can fully charge their EV in about 11 to 16 hours.

Q: How does the process of charging electric vehicles work?

A: It is just as simple for Falmouth drivers to charge an electric car as it is to charge any other battery-operated device - just plug it in and the charging process starts. The display in your car's cockpit or on the My BMW App shows whether or not charging is proceeding according to plan. Once the battery is fully charged, the charging process ends.
