Tesla shows speed limits also -- since Autopilot was introduced in 2014. The older AP system even recognizes the signs, the current version just uses the map database (sign reading has been "coming soon" for a while).
Love the feature...

BMW 330 xdrive loaner review (G20)
Quote:
+1 I know some may doubt it but, overall, i think bmw is now the best when it comes to (usable) tech. If you have t driven a recent bmw (new 3 series or x5) it’s worth doing. There is a bit more of a learning curve with idrive compared to some, but it’s worth it. Even on my current car with idrive 6, I never wish for Apple carplay. Disappointing that Audi has gone with an all touch screen system with their latest MMI - they’re trying to be trendy. And not that any of us buy cars just for the tech, but once you experience it done well it’s hard to put up with other manufacturers bs |

You have to really try hard to get a 330 to 60k. 50k gets you pretty much all the options you’d want. You can probably get about 5-8k off msrp at which point you’re in the low to mid 40s where it starts to make sense. Then again, I’d only lease this car (and every other car in this segment). |

Yea, BMW has gone overboard on options and you can get a $60k 330 but you can also get what you need (m sport, nav..) for closer to $50k. 8-10% off MSRP is common and leases are strong so it’s probably $450-ish at that price point. We might pick one of these up later in the year now that we need 2 cars, but first need to finish the house and then replace 550. Original plan was 2019 M550 but inventory is drying up so we might change gears and try to hack a leftover 2019 X5 lease deal instead, there are still some 50i models sitting.
