Have you been wondering about all of the buzz surrounding electric vehicles? You are certainly not alone. Many Portland drivers are adopting the EV lifestyle thanks to improvements in range, performance, and technology.

We explore the basics of BMW electric car maintenance in the guide below.
The BMW 5 Series has a sensor-driven maintenance plan that revolves around a Condition Based Service (CBS) system. Because of this, the system will cycle every 10,000 miles. This is when you can expect to bring your vehicle in for a tire rotation and oil change.
