Is the F95 self-levelling like the F85?

With my F85 I tow a lot and appreciate its self-levelling rear suspension.

Does the F95 have the same feature?

F95 doesn't have air suspension. Is it even possible to self level with non air suspension?

Yes but it would be a complex hydraulic pump system, like electric motor driven or air over fluid. F95 does not have these.

That's incorrect. They just carried that over from the F85.
BMW really needs to proof read their own information.

Good to know, I guess this is why the F95 ride feels substantially harsher.
