330e UK questions
Hi, couple of quick questions please if you can help:-
1) What's the approx cost to charge the car at home? 2) I think the petrol tank is 40l what combined range might that give if you use the car 80% motorway miles

I'm guessing you'll get about 45MPG at a steady 70MPH and at that speed the electric motor won't be super useful. 45*8 gallons(40ltrs)= 360 miles + 30 miles of electric. So "about" 400 miles, obviously assuming you do one long trip and don't charge it up again. I'll let you know in a week or two! :-) |

Had a survey and now Waiting for the quote for a workplace charging point as at home we are on the fifth floor so not able to put in a home point. A £500 UK grant is hopefully available.

Inland revenue allow 4p per mile for electric cars so I'd say this is a reasonable approximation of the costs using a standard tariff.
As for range, with my F30 330e in those circumstances I currently would get 350 miles or so.

M Sport missing items
Hi guys
I have a 330E M Sport ordered for delivery in late October. Can someone tell me why a few of the options standard in the 330I M Sport are seemingly not included in the 330E M Sport pack? I’m thinking primarily BMW Loudspeaker advanced, M Sport suspension, M Sport braking system and variable sports steering. I understand why the larger fuel tank is missing but what do we get in lieu of these deletions? |

I’m just confused( and a little annoyed) that the very same M Sport pack for a 330E is short changed fo4 whatever reason |

I think they may have removed the M Sport suspension on 330e because of ride quality issues/managing the extra weight. I tried a standard 320d M Sport with non RFT on 18" wheels and found the ride far too uncomfortable. The adaptive in comfort mode is amazingly better, even with 19" wheels and RFT tyres... As an aside, I think all 330e's have the full iDrive package + TFT dashboard, whether SE, Sport or M Sport. |

Maybe I’m missing something tricky? I thought the M Sport pack cost the same for the 330I as the 330E whereas the 330I seems to include more functionality with the steering,suspension,braking,loudspeakers and larger tank for the same price? If I’m right it hardly seems fair to charge the same for the M Sport pack in the 330E |

Exactly JustChris. If I understand correctly that the M Sport package is £2,900 for both 330I and 330E then the 330E is being short changed. IF I’m interpreting this correctly
