BMW revolutionizes car multimedia systems
The Bavarian carmaker has unveiled its latest Operating System X software. It debuted on the Vision Neue Klasse concept and will become the new standard for the brand's multimedia systems.
The key feature of the technology is reflected in its index – Panoramic iDrive. The infotainment “conveyor” is equipped with a panoramic display that covers the entire width of the space behind the dashboard.
In addition, the complex includes a digital "speedometer", an additional 3D projection screen and a central display. The latter is made in a non-standard design and has the shape of a parallelogram with two truncated corners.

Another significant element of the new system, according to the BMW press center, is the steering wheel. This is due to the introduction of innovative tactile communication technology. According to preliminary data, it includes vibration feedback and adaptive keys, like in gamepads of modern gaming consoles.
The software shell was developed on the basis of the Android platform with open source code. In the new generation, Bavarian specialists have prepared even more "fashionable" technologies based on artificial intelligence. In addition, the active implementation of language models similar to ChatGPT has been declared.
The debut of the new infotainment system will take place simultaneously with the generation of the Neue Klasse before the end of the calendar year. BMW management has not yet named the model that will be the first to receive Operating System X. According to preliminary information, it may be the new generation of the third series.
