BMW i Silent.
Silent.
Not quiet.
16 electric BMWs, from the carbon-bodied i3 to the 660 PS i7 M70.
eDrive
BMW’s name for its electric drive: motor, power electronics and transmission built as one compact unit.
kW, not PS
Electric output is quoted in kilowatts. Peak power is often a short boost; continuous power is lower.
Net battery capacity
The usable energy in kWh. Gross capacity includes a buffer the car never lets you use.
Recuperation
Braking with the motor turns motion back into charge. It is why one-pedal driving feels so different.
