Hi, does anyone know when BMW plans to introduce the ID8 into the G01 (F97 more specifically)?

Thanks!

I can't imagine this will happen for the current generation X3 G01 and derivates.
X3 already received its LCI (facelift), further developments won't happen I'd assume.
The successor will arrive in just two years in 2024 ynguldyn announced.

Never.

Don’t you think it is pretty unrealistic to leave the X3 with ID7 until 2024 as other models get ID8 in 2022? Also, ID8 might not de facto require the new screen anyway.

I don't think about the feasibility of this or that. I only report the facts.

If you say so. Time will tell.

You can buy an 2022 X1 with iDrive 6.0 today, while iDrive 7.0 was available on other BMWs starting in 2020.

2019 X5 I believe was the first to have iD7… only furthering your point.

[DFTBA]

Not sure which one was first, but the 2018 8 series and 3series already had iDrive 7 (optional for the 3 series, I assume standard in the 8).

Good point frankchn. Had some hope as the G20/21 LCI and the G81 also come with ID8.

Did I miss something? Is the X6 getting a PHEV model (i.e. the xDrive50e)? Thanks.

ynguldyn There are rumors that G80 comp rwd will be discontinued from MY23. Have you received any update on this.

I don't have access to that kind of information. Pretty much any discontinuation driven by low sales or similar causes, when it happens, is as news to me as to everyone else.

That would shock me. Is the AWD take rate that high on this car?

Even in the forum, most competitions are ordered with xdrive.

Since the introduction of the xDrive, I haven't had a single order of the RWD comp. (Roughly 15 cars)

I see that you are in Chicago and i am not surprised.

I created a poll (https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1911452) to get an idea of the variants market share within the forum. As of now, G80c rwd number isnt terrible.

My guess: Yes, when you have a look at the revealed i3 for China.

Makes sense in cold city markets, but still states like California, Florida, and Texas are massive population centers where [in theory] I'd imagine RWD would be the preference. To add to that, the xDrive variant is like $4000 more.
