64.7 kWh usable energy
The underfloor lithium-ion battery has 64.7 kWh of usable energy in this specification. Usable capacity is the energy available within the operating window, distinct from gross capacity.
Recover energy during deceleration
The electric drive can operate as a generator when slowing down. Power electronics manage the flow of recovered energy into the battery; physical brakes provide additional stopping force when needed.
November 2022 European specification · temporary boost included
The 230 kW rating includes temporary boost. The two individual motor peaks are not added together to calculate system output. Battery usable energy is 64.7 kWh in BMW’s November 2022 data sheet; later specifications can differ.
