Personally I haven't experienced the switch to hybrid. I have driven a fair bit of miles in electric so far. |

First I thought it might be after driving electric only for really long but now it happened after 100 km. It is also switching back to max 6A charging more since a couple of days. Both can be related. It is not a big problem. Just strange it happens more now and it was gone for a couple of months. Maybe I will try to get upgraded to 11/2020 when changing to winter tires. |

It happens to me sometimes, but i have the impression it happens when im accelerating, although not past the kick down. My interpretation was the car "felt" it needed to bring up the ICE to keep up with my acceleration.

This morning again, i have it every day now. Doing 30Kph with no load on the engine at all, suddenly you hear the engine starting with a "Voom".
It's a nice sound for most Europeans as we are condemned to mostly 4-cylinder cars… I guess it's just the ICE feeling neglected and wanting some attention, not so dissimilar to my 5-year old now that I think of it |

I think I will wait for 11/2020 and switch to winter tires at once. |

I never had the problem that it switches to hybrid, only when the battery is empty. I'm on 3/2020 software as well.
@ ikheetleon: update over the air or update in BMW garage? |

FYI
Had the issue before. It happened more frequent after the OTA update from last May. (11/2019.70??) Had my car updated in the garage to version 07/2020.30 in August due to connection problems with the BMW connected app. Never had the switching to hybrid issue since. |

@ikheetleon did you experience the same? I am going to wait until November to upgrade to 11/2020 and put on winterwheels. I kind of hope that with 11/2020 it will be possible to remotely activate seat steering wheel heating. And maybe by then I will have an iPhone 12 with digital key? |

Seats and steering wheel is heated when I set the car to heat/cool from the cd app. Or do you mean you want to be able to enable seat/steering wheel individually? There are some options for that in the climate rules. I have the seats/steering wheel heated when it's below 10 degrees. Iphone key would be very nice indeed. |

I find that, if I notice the car is in hybrid before the ICE kicks in, I can immediately switch to electric. It's only when the ICE has turned on, that electric becomes unavailable for a minute or so.
Problem is, I usually only notice I'm in hybrid when I hear the engine starting... |
