How far can it really take you on one charge?
130 km
EPA range (81 mi)
65 km
effective there-and-back radius
The 2015 BMW i3 BEV is rated at 130 km (81 mi) on the EPA test cycle. That's a laboratory figure — in mixed real-world driving expect roughly 124 km, less in winter or at sustained highway speed. On a road-network range map that's rarely a neat circle — terrain, highways and coastlines shape where one charge can actually take you. For a trip out and back home without charging, plan around an effective radius of about 65 km.
