BMW Petrol and Diesel Drivers to Be Told When to Switch to an EV by a Smartphone App

New app will use data from drivers' cars to calculate when they would be better off switching to an electric vehicle

BMW is developing a new smartphone app that will tell petrol and diesel drivers when they should switch to an electric vehicle (EV).

The app will use data from drivers' cars to calculate when they would be better off switching to an EV, taking into account factors such as their driving habits, the cost of fuel, and the availability of charging stations.

BMW says the app will be available in the UK later this year, and it is expected to be rolled out to other markets in the future.

Why is BMW developing this app?

BMW is developing this app as part of its efforts to reduce its carbon emissions. The company has pledged to reduce its emissions by 50% by 2030, and it believes that EVs will play a major role in achieving this goal.

The app will help drivers to understand the benefits of EVs and make the switch to an EV as easy as possible.

How will the app work?

The app will use data from drivers' cars to calculate when they would be better off switching to an EV. This data will include factors such as:

• Their driving habits
• The cost of fuel
• The availability of charging stations

The app will then provide drivers with a personalized recommendation on when they should switch to an EV.

What are the benefits of switching to an EV?

There are many benefits to switching to an EV, including:

• Reduced emissions
• Lower running costs
• Improved air quality

The government is also offering incentives to encourage people to switch to EVs, such as the plug-in car grant.

Is this app available now?

The app is currently in development and is expected to be released in the UK later this year.
