King Charles has officially traded wine and cheese for watts and charge time.
Known for his legendary Aston Martin that famously ran on surplus English wine and whey, the monarch has now embraced a new chapter in clean driving swapping his 55-year-old classic for a cutting-edge electric BMW worth a staggering £170,000.
The King was spotted on Sunday gliding to church at his Sandringham estate in the luxury EV, which boasts an impressive 341-mile range on a single charge.
Charles’s passion for sustainability is no secret. He was among the first in the Royal Family to go electric, snapping up a Jaguar I-Pace EV400 HSE back in 2018 long before eco-cars became a mainstream trend.
In a rare move, the royal family has pulled back the curtain on their official gift list and it’s every bit as jaw dropping as you’d imagine.
Released for the first time in years, the newly published records detail the generous haul received by senior royals including King Charles, Queen Camilla, and the Prince and Princess of Wales between 2020 and 2023.

Other items include everything from high-end cufflinks and fragrances to bottles of fine alcohol.
