Photos of the production I4 interior, iDrive 8. Looks better than the original prototype. Obviously won’t be in the X3 LCI, but not bad if it happens to the full redesign.

The i4 has really caught my eye. If the world goes back to normal and the BIK on electric cars stays low I might have to get one as a company car

There's a video of the new idrive now on YouTube.

Not a fan, they are trying to make it like a photo with "apps". For non technical people sure I can understand but for the rest of it it actually slows us down!

Also not a fan of not controlling ac with buttons.

The glare on that tastelessly tacked on screen is going to be atrocious.

Having an X5 and X3, i wouldn’t say it was irritating, but confusing lol. Every time I switch cars I am looking at the dash and center console for the start button. I actually prefer it on the dash as it just comes natural from years of hitting the start button on my 328. Any change takes a bit to get used to and becomes old hat eventually.

I'm thrilled to have actually been correct about the interior after tons of people claimed it was absolutely not gonna happen.

I've always loved the X3 but the step up in interior quality is a deal maker for me

usual lifecycle is about 7 years, and the G01 was introduced in 2018 iirc, so around 2024/25.
