Thanks for the reply and document Harroldv. For those interested, here is the relevant information from the press release. It's still rather ambiguous, as it is unclear if the new controller and touch screen will be available:

BMW X3 and BMW X4: extended standard equipment, new
equipment lines, innovative options.


From April 2016 the standard equipment of the BMW X3 and
BMW X4 will also include multifunction buttons on the steering
wheel, rain-sensing wipers and Cruise Control with Braking function.
And new equipment lines will create additional scope for
individualisation. The range of variants available as an alternative to
standard specification will include the new Advantage model
alongside the xLine and M Sport models. The Advantage model will
include Park Distance Control (PDC) with sensors at the front and rear, two-zone automatic climate control, the storage package and, in
the case of the BMW X3, also automatic tailgate operation (already
part of standard equipment for the BMW X4 Sports Activity Coupe).
The Chestnut Bronze metallic shade will be introduced as a new
exterior paint finish for the BMW X3 and BMW X4. And new variants
will also be added to the selection of optional light-alloy wheels. New
equipment options available for both models include telephony with
wireless charging and the wi-fi hotspot function. Working together
with the optional Navigation system Professional, the iDrive operating
system now also offers innovative menu graphics for the Control
Display in the BMW X3 and BMW X4, using tile symbols arranged
side-by-side
