Slower on the BMW i4
Empty to full; a shorter bar is faster. Indicative figures: the car's own charging limit varies by variant and model year, so check your owner's manual before you order.
What your home needs
Three phase for the full 11 kW
The BMW i4 reaches its full speed only on a three-phase connection. On single phase it still charges, more slowly.
Enough sanctioned load
Your electricity bill shows it. The charger needs room for its own power on top of what the house already uses.
A fixed parking spot
A wall charger goes on the nearest wall and a portable one needs a socket within reach. How installation works
Questions BMW i4 owners ask
Will a bigger charger charge my BMW i4 faster?
No. The car sets the top speed, and the BMW i4 takes up to 11 kW from a home charger. A larger charger works, but it charges the car at the car's own limit.
Can I charge the BMW i4 from a normal 16 A socket?
Yes, with a 3.6 kW portable charger. It is the slowest way to charge, so it suits overnight top-ups and travel.
Wall charger or portable?
At the same power both charge the BMW i4 at the same speed. A wall charger stays fixed at your parking spot; a portable one plugs into a socket and travels with the car. Read the guide
