But think of the gas you’ve saved!!!!
The car should be improving all the time like teslas do. It’s a complete paradigm shift away from step-wise hardware changes to always improving software. If you have i8, it should be upgraded to 8.5, yes? If you have a 7, you’re history now.
I don’t get excited about anything bmw is doing to remove ergonomic value for the sake of upselling software subscriptions and making the car a moving computer like tesla. The i4 and iX are cool. But I will be sad to buy one when I eventually do. i7 was basically perfect. But I’m old school.
