Consumer Description

The BMW 2024 X1 comes with the new iDrive9 that has eliminated most of the physical controls. Now there is a large touch screen that controls the radio, HVAC, Apple Car Play, cruise control, head lights, heated seats, etc. The driver has to keep looking at the screen to find the touch buttons to control all the operation functions of the car. Texting while driving is dangerous; well with the iDrive9, one is texting on steroids!!! This system is nothing short of dangerous. It is so bad, I got rid of the car after owning it for 7 months. I can't believe the NHTSA would allow such a system on a vehicle.
