I have recently placed an order for X5 MY2021 with Exec Package, Drive Assist and Parking assist. I see lots of conversations about different software versions and I am kinda confused a little/ worried a whole lot thinking how would I know if they are delivering a vehicle to me with an updated version of the software. I knew iDrive, but then I see references for iStep .. not sure what to add to my checklist in terms of s/w version checks when I pick-up the vehicle in a couple to three weeks' timeframe. Week 49 is currently targetted build week.

No need to be worried, it is almost guaranteed to not have the latest version at delivery. You can ask your dealer to upgrade it but generally they do not do that unless there is a reason. They used to be separated but nowadays iStep version and iDrive version is referring to the same thing for all intents and purposes. You just need to refer to the iDrive version.
