Can I update my BMW with BMW Operating System 8 to BMW Operating System 8.5?

The following models with BMW Operating System 8 can be updated to BMW Operating System 8.5 via a Remote Software Upgrade free of charge or at an authorized BMW Center. Please note that there may be charges associated with having the software update completed at a BMW Center. Please discuss with the service team at your BMW Center.
  • BMW 7 Series (Model Year 2023)
  • BMW iX (Model Year 2024, produced before July 2023) 
  • BMW X5 / X5 M* Model Year 2024, produced before August 2023) 
  • BMW X6 / X6 M* (Model Year 2024, produced before August 2023) 
  • BMW X7 (Model Year 2024, produced before August 2023)
On the above vehicles, starting with production July 2023 or August 2023, vehicles will be equipped from factory with BMW Operating System 8.5. 

Since the Operating System 8.5 services have a head unit dependency, vehicles not equipped with the latest head unit generation are not technically capable of upgrading.  

* In BMW M models, BMW Operating System 8.5 will be launched without the QuickSelect feature or Home button.
