40e M Sport - battery loses charge if left charged and unplugged

Post by PluginMatt » Sun Feb 19, 2017 9:32 pm

Hi All,

Just wondered if anyone had experience with the edrive 40e in relation to maintaining battery charge?

I noticed that after charging the car yesterday and then leaving it unplugged until this evening that although full yesterday, my range had reduced from 18 miles and 100% charge to only 10 miles and 62% charge. The car hadn't been driven, opened etc. Is this normal for EV's that the batteries just don't retain their charge or is this something else like the climate control coming on or something? Seemed a bit strange that's all.

Thanks for any help

Matt

I've owned mine since new in April 2016 & often leave it fully charged & unused for a few days.Its always retained a full charge so there seems to be something amiss with yours. I hope that it gets sorted out.
