i5 xDrive40 Sedan (MY24)

The BMW i5 xDrive40 Sedan (MY24) is a 5-seat saloon with all-wheel drive, sold new from 2024 to 2025, when it cost €75,600 in Germany, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 5.4 seconds, quicker than 66% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 283 miles (455 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 62% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 39th of 48 saloons.

It uses around 3.5 mi/kWh (178 Wh/km), about the same as the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 81.2 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 123 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 318 miles (512 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand in Germany, a 2024 example is estimated at €35,900–€40,400 and a 2025 one at €43,100–€49,100, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2024 car should still manage about 272 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
