I'm new to the BMW brand, but I've learned their website is just a mess period.

When I ordered my MY2020 it was the same issue. The website showed MY2019 for the order guide, but there were press releases on the MY2020 details (including iDrive 7 which turned out much weaker in practice than marketed). The didn't update the Connected Drive stuff to cover MY2020 iDrive limited cars like the G30 until end of October well after I got my car and learned some stuff wasn't added on that model line.

BMW should take the clarity of the website and its information much more seriously in general. There is nothing preventing them from offering a model year drop down to allow you to flip to 2021 and configure that while 2020 is still default until it is flooding lots. There is nothing preventing them from offering details on which cars will have X features from their grab bag.

They seem really bad at this clarity compared to Mercedes.
