I thought he meant that the update could make the sound worse as they have done with previous updates. I would love for them to sound more like previous years.

I assume you have to have a model capable of over the air updates, which started with idrive 7.

The 21's need the increased sound. It's the 20's that sound great already

It's more like the 20s 'sounded' great before all these updates.

BMW has always been the innovator but now they are falling behind Tesla on this feature.

My 2021 X6 M50i built in April 2021 shows the same 21-03 with no new update due. Maybe it will change soon to add the new one.

Your new MY2022 X5 M50i will come with version 07/2021 already installed.

From OP:
"Vehicles with BMW Operating System 7 produced from July 2021 on already come with the latest version, including all additional functions."

I recently took delivery of MY22 X5 45e and it came with 07/2021 already installed.

You can't. It selects automatically from your area.
Sometimes it glitches and shows miles instead of km, but it fixes itself in a while
