Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the BMW i7 M70 xDrive. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.

Europe

Charging an EV in Europe differs by country. Some European countries primarily use 1-phase connections to the grid, while other countries are almost exclusively using a 3-phase connection. The table below shows all possible ways the BMW i7 M70 xDrive can be charged, but some modes of charging might not be widely available in certain countries.

Type 2 (Mennekes - IEC 62196)
Charging Point Max. Power Power Time Rate
Standard 11.0 kW On-Board Charger
Wall Plug (2.3 kW) 230V / 1x10A 2.3 kW 57h30m 6 mph
1-phase 16A (3.7 kW) 230V / 1x16A 3.7 kW 35h45m 9 mph
1-phase 32A (7.4 kW) 230V / 1x32A 7.4 kW 18 hours 18 mph
3-phase 16A (11 kW) 400V / 3x16A 11 kW 12h15m 27 mph
3-phase 32A (22 kW) 400V / 3x16A 11 kW † 12h15m 27 mph
Optional 22.0kW On-Board Charger
Wall Plug (2.3 kW) 230V / 1x10A 2.3 kW 57h30m 6 mph
1-phase 16A (3.7 kW) 230V / 1x16A 3.7 kW 35h45m 9 mph
1-phase 32A (7.4 kW) 230V / 1x32A 7.4 kW 18 hours 18 mph
3-phase 16A (11 kW) 400V / 3x16A 11 kW 12h15m 27 mph
3-phase 32A (22 kW) 400V / 3x32A 22 kW † 6 hours 55 mph

† = Limited by on-board charger, vehicle cannot charge faster.

Fast Charging (10 -> 80%)

Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the BMW i7 M70 xDrive.

  • Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
  • Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
  • Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
  • Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%
Combined Charging System (CCS Combo 2)
Charging Point Max. Power Avg. Power Time Rate
CCS (50 kW DC) 50 kW 50 kW 99 min 140 mph
CCS (150 kW DC) 150 kW 120 kW † 41 min 330 mph
CCS (350 kW DC) 250 kW † 175 kW † 28 min 490 mph
CCS (500 kW DC) 250 kW † 175 kW † 28 min 490 mph
This vehicle does not support Autocharge
This vehicle supports Plug & Charge

† = Limited by charging capabilities of vehicle

Autocharge: allows for automatic initiation of a charging session at supported CCS charging stations.

Plug & Charge: allows for automatic initiation of a charging session at supported CCS charging stations in accordance with ISO 15118.

Actual charging rates may differ from data shown due to factors like outside temperature, state of the battery and driving style.

BMW Claimed Specifications

The table below shows the claimed specifications from the manufacturer for charging the BMW i7 M70 xDrive. The specifications can differ from the table above for a variety of reasons. If real-world charge tests are available, these differences can be signifcant. If no real-world tests are available, the table above will be based on the manufacturer specifications as per the table below.

  • Max. Power: maximum charge power during charging session
  • Charge From: battery percentage (% SoC) where charging session is started
  • Charge To: battery percentage (% SoC) where charging session is ended
  • Time: time needed for charging session

Long Distance Suitability

How suitable an electric car is for long trips depends not only on the range. How quickly the car can charge plays an almost equally important role. Whether an EV is suitable for long trips depends on the battery capacity, efficiency, and fast charging capability.

To easily compare cars among each other, a benchmark has been established that combines these factors into the total distance a vehicle can cover with one 15-minute charging stop: the '1-Stop Range'. Based on the 1-Stop Range, the 5-star rating is determined. The result of the benchmark is shown in the graph below.
