A Look at the All-Electric BMW iX

For decades the BMW brand has been synonymous with style and performance. The company has seen significant success, both in traditional markets and in other fields, such as racing. Now the company is pivoting to an emerging market: all-electric vehicles. The benefits of owning all-electric vehicles are many.

These cars require less regular maintenance than their traditional counterparts because they do not use internal combustion engines. Instead, they have batteries and motors. While these parts still move, they experience much less wear and tear than standard engines do. Regenerative braking also helps the vehicle avoid frequent brake pad changes. BMW's new BMW i4 is an all-electric sedan that enjoys these advantages shared by all electric vehicles, while offering Ohio drivers a luxury experience. 

Owning an all-electric BMW comes with other perks. First of all, you're driving a sleek new BMW! Heads will turn everywhere you pass. And, of course, the all-electric vehicle will have less of an environmental impact than its traditional competitors.

BMW Specs and Style

BMW has gone all-out to make the i4 an impressive vehicle. The top model, the i4 M50, can go from 0 to 60 in under 4 seconds, which is exceptional, to say the least. Even the base model manages this in just 5.5 seconds! They accomplish this thanks to their power: the M50 outputs 536 maximum horsepower, and the eDrive40 has 335.

On the charging front, both of these vehicles are also impressive. Each is fully charged in less than 8 hours - meaning that it will be topped up each morning, no matter how far you drive - and have ranges as high as 300 miles per charge. Ohio drivers will be thrilled to learn that the city of Dayton alone plays host to almost 200 charging stations.
