How do I deactivate/activate adaptive recuperation manually in my electric vehicles with BMW Operating System 8.5?

Adaptive recuperation supports an anticipatory and comfort-oriented driving style.

The system decides based on the situation if and how much the energy is recovered through recuperation or if the vehicle coasts. Depending on the strength of the recuperation, the vehicle is decelerated differently while coasting.

The system actives when the following conditions are met:

  • Selector lever position D is engaged.
  • Brake pedal not depressed.
  • Accelerator pedal not operated.
  • Dynamic Stability Control is activated.

 

Perform the following on the iDrive screen to deactivate/activate adaptive recuperation manually on the control display:

  1. Apps menu
  2. "Vehicle"
  3. "Driving settings"
  4. "Drivetrain and chassis"
  5. "Energy recovery in D"
  6. Select the desired setting.
