We are actually. The only thing my 2024 X5 40i does not have is rear seat entertainment. It has DHP, and Two Axle air, bowers and Wilkins, and all the options. Glad I ordered one.

How did you get Bowers and Wilkins? I'm ordering a 2024 X5 50e and the most I can get is Harmon/Kardon. I thought B&W was reserved for the M60i and X5M only?

Not yet. Still no night vision, ambient air, rear door hands free unlock, rear puddle lights, full alcantara headliner including sunshade, etc...

100%.

This is not correct, assuming you are in the US as your location indicates. DHP and B&W are not available for the 40i.

Even worse in UK 40i is not available!

Pre LCI with fog lights 🙏🏻💥🥲

The exterior looks fine. Not really better or worse. Just can’t get over the cost-cutting in the interior. Still has two LCD screens just as it did before, but the removal of the HVAC control panel definitely saved a lot of money.

On another note, if y’all haven’t watched this guy’s videos before, check em out. He always goes into such detail and he’s got such a calm voice. Definitely not like the typical American YouTuber just trying to produce clickbait.

Yea, hes one of the best. He also looks like a movie star but is doing auto reviews lol.

Him and Savagegeese are def the 2 most detailed auto reviewers. Doug demuro is good too but hes extremely annoying.

I ordered both. It comes with two axle air suspension, adaptive dampers, and integral active steering. I also ordered the B&W

If you're able to order B&W for the X5 40i that would make a lot of people here very happy, but....



I hope I'm wrong.

No you didn't. As an aside, the air suspension is adaptive and that deletes the normal adaptive xLine suspension. That has nothing to do with DHP though, it is not available for the 40i. B&W isn't either according to the pricing guide so we will have to see if that has changed.

Pre LCI removed fog light in 22 too. I still think the so call fog light will help peripheral vision at night. My previous two lease suv both had them. For now i do think they both have slight edge to night illumination.

If you have em on the pre LCI- it helps. Gives you more presence on the street - people see the car easier too..

I’ve never been a fan of the x6 I just don’t like those wedge shapes

Me too. The whole reason for me to get x5 is cargo practicality. If I lose that, I may as well drive sedan. And I am not feeling that style of shape

I see the progressive turn signals here and I have to say, that looks nice. Last weekend I installed the remote software update version 11/2022.60 on my X3 M40i LCI and that would also make the indicators progressive (at least, that is what BMW indicates on its website), but I do not see any difference with the situation before this update. Did anyone get anything from this?

I am wrong! Salesperson said it was removed from build. Everything else stays.

[Bmw2626]

2 axle air not available for 40i or 60i. Ordering guide incorrect.

Yes it is, it’s in my build.

I see they removed the B&W you said you ordered. The IAS and Air suspension will be removed when you go to 111 if they haven't been already. Unless next month there is an unexpected change in availability.
