How do I deactivate/activate adaptive recuperation manually in my electric vehicle with BMW Operating System 8?

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

Using various sensors, the system analyzes the current driving situation, e.g., the distance to the vehicle in front and how much energy is recovered through recuperation or if the vehicle coasts. Depending on the strength of the recuperation, the vehicle is decelerated differently while coasting.

 

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

  1. Apps menu
  2. "Vehicle"
  3. "Driving settings"
  4. "Drivetrain and chassis"
  5. "Adaptive recuperation"
  6. Select the desired setting.
