2021 X5M / X6M soft close doors?
Did BMW really remove soft close doors for the 2021 X5M and X6M?

I have a 2021 X5M going into production it has soft close doors. This might be only with US deliveries.
I also have the sky lounge sun roof which is not available in the US |

They did remove it from the other X5 trim packages along with Hot/Cold cup holders. The 2021 US configurator is up on website where you can build it and verify. |

Just wanted to add that feature is rather useless on the X5M anyway. I have it and the weight of the doors usually is enough for the doors to close on its own without the SCD activating. I would prefer the SCD do its thing but you can almost never close the doors light enough to make it work. I had it on my F85 and F15 as well and it was the same thing.

I really liked that way it pulled on my F10 M5 and on my M6, but not so much on my X6M, but yeah, I would rather have it than not have it if given the choice.

I use my soft close doors all the time. My kids now mastered the right “pull door in to close” You can’t hear any of my doors close now that no one slams them.

^^ not easily if i had to guess. You'll have to see if your dealership is willing to jump through a few hoops for you and even then it might not be possible. It sort of pisses me off that the X5M's in the US doesn't get to have this option when others do.
