Should I recondition or replace the electric battery in my BMW i3?

If your BMW i3’s battery is currently having issues, the question arises: should I recondition or replace the high-voltage battery? Reconditioning the electric battery offers cost savings and is environmentally friendly. While a brand-new high-voltage battery definitely has a longer lifespan, when we consider the cost versus the expected mileage, reconditioning is always more advantageous.

Should I do preventive maintenance on the electric battery of my BMW i3?

Preventive maintenance of the electric battery is crucial to ensure optimal performance and a longer lifespan of the electric vehicle. By performing preventive maintenance on your BMW i3’s battery, you ensure reliable performance, extended battery life, and a satisfying electric driving experience.
