In the "Battery Control" drive mode, a specific state of charge of the high-voltage battery of your BMW plug-in hybrid vehicle can be maintained or increased while driving, e.g. in order to hold electric drive energy in reserve for a later point during the journey. Depending on the model, production date and equipment of your BMW PHEV, you can activate "Battery Control" in the BMW iDrive operating system or with a button (battery icon with three bars and a triangle at the bottom right edge) and select a value between 30% and 100% for the state of charge.
Please note: Charging the high-voltage battery while driving can increase the average consumption.
