Differences between MY 2019 and MY 2020

Hi,

I'm in Europe and looking to get a slightly used X5. I've seen in the interior pictures (and also mentioned on the forum) that there are differences in the iDrive system between earlier model years and later ones? Is that true? My Googling didn't turn out much.

Thank you!

iDrive is the same for the G05 platform from 2019 to 2023 and its iDrive version 7. Any differences you might see or read would be due to updates being done to some and not others. Updates could be done by the dealer or by the owner via OTA updates. regardless of any updates, it's still iDrive 7.

Welcome to the forum. As Marty has said, all of them are running the same version of iDrive. The only difference in features of iDrive that I remember between the two is that the Assisted Driving View is not available on the 19's.

I know this is also true in G05 (X7) and G20 (3 series) but I found out today that the assisted view can be coded!
