If we were all still limited to analogue switches and dials on the dashboard, there simply wouldn’t be room for all the controls necessary to configure the array of onboard systems in a modern luxury car. In a luxury car such as an expensive BMW, drivers need iDrive to access an incredibly diverse range of menus including climate control settings and telephone contacts, settings for sport, comfort or eco driving modes, emails, text messages, and seat settings, all while requesting navigation directions to the nearest restaurant via voice command and scrolling through their favourite playlist. In this guide we’ll explore the features of iDrive, how to use it, common problems and how it compares to the infotainment systems employed by rivals. iDrive is BMW’s name for the control system it fits to its cars and iDrive 8 is the latest version of it.
New cars are becoming increasingly complex and as you’d expect, premium brands like BMW are leading the way with advanced control systems to help drivers make the most of all the technology.
