BMW i3 Charging Speed

BMW i3 has a battery power limit of 11KW, which means that a 22KW charge point can only supply 11KW due to this onboard limit. If you were to charge using a 7KW charger, the charge point would limit the charge and only supply 7KW.
The table below provides BMW i3 AC charging time and rates for batteries from 0% to 100%.
Charging Point Max Power Power Time to Charge Rate
Wall Plug (2.3 KW) 230V / 1x10A 2.3KW16h28m18km/h
1-phase 16A (3.7 KW) 230V / 1x16A 3.7KW10h14m29km/h
1-phase 32A (7.4 KW) 230V /1x32A 7.4KW5h7m58km/h
3-phase 32A (22 KW) 400V / 3x32A 11KW3h26m87km/h

Note: EV battery size impacts charging time. Larger batteries take longer to charge due to higher capacity, but offer longer distances between charges, potentially shortening total charge time. Keeping the battery between 20% and 80% is advised for faster charging. Also, the (†) On-board charging limits as well as the charge point power limit greatly defines charging times. Low temperatures and fast chargers may slightly increase charging duration, but less relevant in mild climates.

BMW i3 Home Charging

  • Faster charging speeds: Home chargers are faster than the TCL cables that come with electric vehicles so that you can get back on the road sooner.
