Electrify the executive sedan with a BMW i5 car rental
Drive an i5
A BMW i5 car rental puts you in the all-electric 5 Series, a quiet luxury sedan with up to 310 miles of range. The base eDrive40 drives the rear wheels with a single electric motor. To compare more models from the brand, start with BMW car rental on Turo.
On Turo, you book your i5 from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup or delivery that fits your plans. Trim and wheel size both affect range — so check the listing before you book.

Quiet, instant electric power
The i5 eDrive40 makes 335 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque from a single rear motor, and it reaches 60 mph in 5.7 seconds. Craving more? The dual-motor xDrive40 brings all-wheel drive and 389 hp, while the M60 delivers 593 hp and a 3.7-second sprint to 60 mph.
Curved Display & iDrive 8.5
You get two screens under one sweeping panel. The Curved Display pairs a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster with a 14.9-inch touchscreen, and both run on iDrive 8.5.
You can control the system four ways: touch, voice, gesture, or the iDrive controller. Voice and gesture come in handy on unfamiliar roads, when you'd rather keep your eyes forward and your hands on the wheel. Spend a few minutes parked, trying each one before you pull away — you'll find your favorite fast.
Fast charging on the go
The i5 adds range quickly at a DC fast charger, accepting up to 205 kW. It charges from 10% to 80% in about 30 minutes — roughly the length of a coffee-and-stretch break on a long drive.
Its 81.2 kWh usable battery delivers up to 310 miles of range, depending on trim and wheels. Staying somewhere with a 240-volt home charger? The 11 kW AC charging refills the battery in about eight hours, so you can plug in at night and wake up ready to roll.
Stand out with an i5
The i5 suits business trips, city-to-city drives, and anyone curious about owning an EV. You get 5 Series comfort without gas stops, and a multiday trip lets you test real-world range and charging before you buy. See more options with electric vehicle rental on Turo.
Top i5 features
5 Series heritage, electrified
The i5 stands out for its 5 Series heritage, room for five, and a choice of three distinct trims.
The i5 carries the 5 Series sedan into the electric era. It debuted for the 2024 model year as part of the G60 generation, and it's assembled in Germany.
For you, that means a familiar executive-sedan silhouette with a quiet, all-electric drivetrain and no tailpipe. Roll up to a client meeting, a downtown dinner, or a hotel valet stand, and the i5 looks the part. You get 5 Series polish, paired with the instant response of an electric motor every time you press the pedal.
Room for five & their bags
The i5 seats five and offers 17.3 cubic feet of cargo space, so your whole crew and their luggage can travel together. That makes it a strong, comfortable pick for airport runs, weekends away with friends, or family visits across the state.
Filling every seat? Pack soft-sided bags — they're easier to fit around each other than hard cases. With up to 310 miles of range in the eDrive40, a full car doesn't have to mean frequent stops along the way.
Choose your drive
The trim you book shapes how your i5 drives and how far it goes. The rear-wheel-drive eDrive40 uses a single motor and offers 278–310 miles of range, depending on wheel size. The xDrive40 adds a second motor for all-wheel drive, with 259–278 miles of range.
The M60 sits at the top of the lineup as the most powerful i5 trim. If range matters most for your trip, the eDrive40 travels farther than the xDrive40. If you want all-wheel drive or extra punch, look for an xDrive40 or M60 — and check the listing to confirm which trim you're getting.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
