Home EV charger setup
The smart-night savings above require a home charger. Without one, you'll charge on public networks at significantly higher rates.

estimated per year
PHEV maintenance is significantly more complex and expensive than standard petrol; 48V hybrid system components, high-voltage battery monitoring, dual coolant circuits, and charging electronics add €300–€400/year over equivalent non-hybrid 5 Series. Post-warranty battery diagnostics are essential from year 5 onwards.
