Charging BMW i5 at home
Both grades ship with an 11kW single-phase-compatible onboard charger (an optional 22kW three-phase upgrade exists) — a good fit whether the home has single- or three-phase supply.
This vehicle accepts up to 11 kW on AC — the rate a home charger delivers day to day (DC fast charging is for public stops, not the driveway).
