Anywhere, without a charger
A portable charger plugs into a household, reinforced or industrial socket and charges your i4 at up to 11 kW: the solution on the road or while waiting for a wallbox.
Which cable length?
- 5 m the charger or the socket is right next to the charging port, in a garage or a straight-in space.
- 7 m the most common choice, for an angled space, a carport or a shared charger.
- 10 m the socket is far from the space, or the charging port changes side from one car of the household to the other.

Frequently asked questions
The 22 kW three-phase one: it uses the 11 kW of the charger on 22 kW stations and stays compatible with 7.4 and 11 kW stations. The 7.4 kW single-phase cable costs barely less and holds the car back.
A 16 A reinforced socket cable with a control box, Type 2 connector on the car side: 10h47 from 20 to 80 %, 23 km recovered per hour.
5 m covers a space facing the station; take 7 m if you park in reverse or at an angle, 10 m for a station across a driveway. Never an extension cord: the cable heats up and the station may refuse to charge.
Generally speaking, the charging cable of your BMW i4 EV plugs in at the front, at the rear, or on the side of the vehicle via the charging port.
Charging your BMW i4 with a cable for a household socket takes a long time because using a standard socket limits the current to 10 A (i.e. a little over 2 kW).
