2014 Upgrades?

PvsNP · 03-07-2014, 03:33 PM

Is it true that they have introduced bunch of small silent upgrades to 5 series around now (March-April builds) that has better radio, faster navigation processor, better 3d maps, etc? Does anyone know what has changed in the past few weeks/months?

No upgrade as far as I know since the LCI.

I haven't heard of anything. Last I heard after the LCI intro were the improvements to the parking system and traffic assist (which we're not getting still in the US).

OP, where did you hear this? Not challenging, just curious....

The article said these features will be introduce in 2014 on the 5 series, it didn't say spring. Most likely we will see it in the 2015 model year.

NA is saying no updates mid year but potentially more enhancements on the idrive for 2015. Doubtful that it will be anything too meaningful since they just upgraded to 4.2 for 2014 but we'll have to wait and see.
