The eDrive button allows you to switch between different drive modes, including electric-only mode, hybrid mode, and fuel-saving mode. It is important to understand when to use each mode to maximize the efficiency and performance of your i5.

A

In electric-only mode, your i5 will solely run on its battery power, reducing emissions and saving fuel. This is ideal for city driving or short trips. Hybrid mode combines the electric motor and gas engine for optimal performance. Fuel-saving mode prioritizes battery usage to save fuel, making it great for longer trips. Experiment with each mode and find what works best for your driving habits.

E

Don't forget that the eDrive button also has a Sport mode, which boosts the power of your i5 by utilizing both the electric motor and gas engine. This is great for a more spirited driving experience. Just be aware that this mode will use more fuel.
