BMW i5 price, lease and range: common questions
How much does the BMW i5 cost?
MSRP is $67,100 for the eDrive40 to $84,100 for the M60 xDrive in November 2026, plus a $1,450 destination fee. Tax, options and dealer markup are extra.
What is the BMW i5 price with destination?
$68,550 for the cheapest trim: $67,100 MSRP plus the $1,450 destination fee, before tax, registration and dealer fees.
Does the BMW i5 qualify for the $7,500 tax credit?
No. The federal clean vehicle credit is not available for new EVs acquired after September 30, 2025, so a BMW i5 you buy today doesn't qualify. The lease version of the credit ended the same day. Some states still pay their own rebate.
How much is a BMW i5 lease?
The lowest advertised BMW i5 lease we track is $749 a month for 36 months with $6,969 due at signing (eDrive40 trim; ends November 30, 2026; checked November 5, 2026). Spread over the term, that is about $943 a month before tax and fees. Offers depend on your ZIP code and credit; run the dealer's money factor and residual in our lease calculator.
What is the BMW i5's range?
EPA range is 277 to 328 miles, depending on trim. Expect about 230 miles from the longest-range trim in cold weather; that figure is our estimate, not an EPA number.
Can the BMW i5 use Tesla Superchargers?
Yes. Its charge port is listed as NACS.
How fast does the BMW i5 charge?
10 to 80% takes about 30 minutes on a fast charger, with a peak of 205 kW.
What is the battery warranty on the BMW i5?
8 yr / 100,000 mi.
