Since the iDrive system on BMW vehicles was first introduced, drivers across the country have been raving about it. The newest version, iDrive 5.0, is better than ever, offering numerous innovations that make life easier. Now the system truly includes all the functions you need along with easy-to-use controls.
Controller
The system’s unique controller was developed keeping biometric principles in mind so you can control iDrive 5.0 with a single hand. The buttons right about the controller are responsible for accessing the functions drivers most frequently need: CD, telephone, radio, and navigation. You can also program the eight buttons underneath your CD/DVD player in any way you want. The system is so versatile that you can use these buttons for telephone numbers, destinations for navigation, radio stations, and CD tiles. You can also control the system via voice commands for convenience and safety.
Display Screen
BMW designed the Control Display for the optimal size and position to be within view of the driver while minimizing the amount of time your eyes are off the road. The screen is high-resolution and free from glares so you can see it in any lighting. Everyone should be able to use the system intuitively and follow the menu navigation since BMW chose to go the familiar route and stick to the method found in computing. You will be able to configure your BMW with a 6.5-inch or 8.8-inch display screen.
Other Great Technology
In addition to the iDrive 5.0 System, the 2017 BMW X3 has plenty of other great technological features. The X3 lets you take advantage of Wi-Fi hotspot capabilities and a wireless charging dock so your devices are always connected and fully charged.
