Charging accessories for your electric car.
Your BMW Charging Card.
Your personal charging card is your ticket to access the BMW Charging network. You can easily identify and charge your electric car or hybrid vehicle on the road at public charging stations using the BMW Charging Card. Alternatively, you can use digital authentication via the My BMW App⁵.
Your fast charging cable (Mode 3) for public charging.
The fast charging cable (Mode 3) for public AC charging offers full flexibility and lets you quickly charge your fully electric vehicle or plug-in hybrid vehicle. Thanks to its length of five metres, it is easy to use at public charging stations.
Benefits of the Multifunction Charger.
The Multifunction Charger lets you charge your vehicle when out and about. When used with the appropriate Mode 3 adapter, you can use it at any public AC charging station with a power output of up to 11 kW. The 6-metre cable gives you plenty of room to park at the charging station. You can also charge your vehicle at home using the adapter supplied.
Straightforward charging.
Intelligent charging flap.
The intelligent charging flap of your new BMW iX3 makes charging simpler and easier. The flap opens automatically as soon as your vehicle detects that you wish to charge. Once you have removed the charging plug, the flap closes automatically after a few seconds.
Spacious storage compartment under the bonnet.
You can store the Multifunction Charger and associated adapters in the spacious 40-litre storage compartment under the bonnet of your new BMW iX3. The storage compartment can also be used for the fast charging cable (Mode 3) for public AC charging and the tyre repair kit Plus, for example.
The BMW route planner can find public charging stations for you.
You will reach your destination more quickly with routes optimised for charging. Get in your car and choose your destination as usual – the navigation does the rest. You’ll see the fastest route straight away, including the best possible charging stops along the way.
Innovative Features for effortless Charging.
We do more than simply show charging stations on a map. We make electric driving effortless, predictable and reliable, wherever your journey takes you.

Charge reliably.
BMW continuously analyses charging sessions and identifies both the actual charging performance of individual stations and recurring issues. You can also see when a charging station was last successfully used, helping you make informed charging decisions.
Full Cost Transparency.
No more time-consuming tariff comparisons. Simply store your charging tariffs and receive personalised cost forecasts for public charging sessions, helping you identify the most cost-effective option at a glance.
Precise Charging Navigation.
Large charging parks can be difficult to navigate. BMW displays availability, charging performance and current occupancy information for individual charging points, helping you identify the most suitable charging option even before arrival.
