How do I maximize the efficiency of the regenerative braking system on the BMW i4?

I've heard that the regenerative braking system on the BMW i4 is a game-changer for increasing range, but I'm not sure how to use it effectively. Can someone share tips on how to get the most out of this feature?

Hi Emily, great question! The regenerative braking system works by storing energy from braking and using it to recharge the battery. To maximize its efficiency, try to anticipate braking situations and lightly press the brake pedal instead of slamming on it. This allows the system to capture more energy. Also, make use of the 'low' and 'high' regenerative braking settings to tailor it to your driving style.

Hey Emily, I've found that using the 'coasting' mode in the i4 can also help with efficiency. When you take your foot off the accelerator, the car essentially 'coasts' without using any energy. Combine this with the regenerative braking system and you can really stretch out your range.

Hi Emily, I highly recommend using the BMW i4's 'eDrive' mode, which maximizes the use of the regenerative braking system. It may take some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, you'll see a significant increase in range. Happy driving!
