I expected a "lite" version of ID7 on the G30 with the LCI due next year. My question has always been how "lite" is it? As I have a hard rule not to buy the first year or "run" of any product. Been burned on this front too many times! So the LCI wasn't an option for me.
I think the LCI will have the full version the same as the new G20. The dealer tells me BMW are regretting partially implementing iDrive 7.0 into the G30 as buyers are disappointed having seen all the marketing hype of the full version and also as with my car, it can create software problems as the technology isn’t as it should be.

My real complaint is that they haven’t made the options the same either. The G20 has Drive Assist Professional rather than Advanced and reverse assistant isn’t available on the G30 but is on the G20 - although the option prices are less on the G20 ! Professional has the camera in the dash so in stop go traffic the car will take off even if you are stopped for a long time, as long as you are looking ahead. In Advanced the car won’t take off if you stop for more than a few seconds.
