Thank you for this video

Does the car need to be locked coz when i walk away the charging light stops im confused

Hi.. can u give the specifications about what plug wire and breaker did u use for that, I have a BMW iX and I want to use the 240 V cable to charge faster, a electrician came here and use #6 wire a NEMA 14-50 plug and a 50a breaker but the charger doesn’t turn on he change for a 40a breaker it turns on but stop to charge

Great vid. Where did you get that wall mount for mobile charger.

Thanks for this video! KZbin needs more like it. I understand the desire to have level 2 charging at home, but I chose to balance the cost of its installation (as you said, about $1500) with necessity. Like you, the vast amount of my driving (I4 M50) is in town. AT MOST, I lose 20% in a day. Level 1 charging from 60% to 80% takes about 17 hours. For example, the other day, I plugged the car in at 5:23 pm. It charged overnight, and reached 80% at 10:52 am. I have had my car for a year and have never lacked enough charge to get where I need to go. Even if there were an emergency, at 80%, I can drive at freeway speeds for about 4 hours before I would need to charge up. I say this only because I think Level 1 charging gets a bad wrap. Would I like to have Level 2 charging - sure, but for me, Level 1 is more than enough, and I have saved myself a good deal of money.

Hello..I own a BMW x1 hybrid vehicle. After charging the vehicle, I don't want it to remain on power after the charge is full. Maybe it won't do any harm, I don't know, but it's not something I want. If I put a socket with a timer and set the time, would it be harmful if it cuts off the electricity at a certain time? Normally, it says in the manual that when the charge is finished, first remove the charging cable from the vehicle and then cut off the electricity. I will cut off the electricity first by using a timer. Will this cause any damage? Or is it necessary? I would be very happy if you answer. Thank you.

These are great cars. I'm planning on buying the i4 M50 next year if the interest rates go down.

I'm flying from Quebec to Kelowna to get delivery of my M35 on october 28, thanks for having posting that it put me in confidence that i can make it !

Mike the reason the GOM went from 323 to 260 something is because the system was planning for "battery preconditionning" about 30 minutes before you arrive at the charging station.

Great video, thanks for the thorough explanation!

Really enojyed seeing a longer trip of the Edrive35! Mine is due to arrive in the next month or two! Being in the UK, most of my "longer" drives will only be 150-200 mile round trips, but much more economical than my 2015 diesel!

I test drove the e35 the other day, I was blown away. never driven a BMW before so was just loving the premium interior. I was warned by the salesman that "it's very slow compared the other i4 models" but when I put my foot down when doing 30 entering the motorway it felt insanely fast to me and I was at 70 before I knew it. Fingers crossed I will be ordering one this year.

Hi, want to know how the suspension feel without active damper?

i4 edrive 40 and M50 garginf speed is up to 205 kW on a super charger.

0 to 100 on 110 is 72 hours

Did you say "someone does or someone should make a plastic insert to make a front trunk area??? I would be interested in buying one.

What was that white thing flying in your garage? 😲

The "drive shaft looking thing" with the boots on it is actually the steering rack.

EV Go will send you a card for charging too.

You are such an engineer....

Well explained Professor Mike. I think that EVs are still good only for daily around town use.

I’m just entering the ev market and looking at the BMW and a few others - useful info!

Great info Senior Mike!

Congrats MIke. I'll be watching.

Looking forward to more senior moments from Mike….😜

Hello Senior Mike, who bugs family and Kevin, where are you walking and those houses in the background?

Can confirm that he bugs family. 😊

Have fun bro. Looking good. Marsha

beautiful vehicle, love driving it, so quiet! Mike fails to mention that he got a speeding ticket a few kms away from the dealership! haha. Have fun with the podcast!
