i5 eDrive40 Touring (MY25)

The BMW i5 eDrive40 Touring (MY25) is a 5-seat estate with rear-wheel drive, on sale in the UK from £69,955. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 6.1 seconds, quicker than 55% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 289 miles (465 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 65% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 19th of 26 estates.

It uses around 3.6 mi/kWh (175 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 322 miles (519 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.

Its UK starting price works out at £242 per mile of real-world range, lower than the median for estates (£256 per mile).

Second-hand, a 2025 example is estimated at £39,900–£45,500, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2025 car should still manage about 283 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
