How does my driving style affect the range of my BMW electric vehicle?

Avoid sudden acceleration and braking. Driving smoothly can improve your electric vehicle’s range. Sudden bursts of speed and harsh braking can reduce efficiency and consume more energy. Driving at higher speeds can significantly reduce range. Try to maintain a moderate, energy-efficient speed to maximize your range. Select the most efficient drive mode (i.e., Eco Pro or MAX eDrive)
