x5m display key and auto cargo cover

Hi, anyone with X5M can tell me if yours comes with a Display key?

Also I saw on some videos the cargo cover can be motor controlled to stow away, is that something available on X5M sold in the USA?

I am in the USA, currently have a 2018 X5M, time to order another, and I dont have either of the above.

Hi, my X5M went into production last week, I have the luggage compartment package. However I’m not in the US I would assume that’s it’s not available there

No and no, for USA models.

You can get luggage compartment package on regular X5 but not X5M.

Unfortunately the luggage compartment package was removed for MY21 on all US model trims. I was upset to find out they removed when I ordered my wife's M50 on Aug 1

Interesting piece is BMW doesn't tell you it's been removed for MY21 but not available on the order guides. Maybe they will bring it back once there's no more inventory constraints on certain parts.

Didn't know they removed it. Sounds like MY21 is quite a step backwards for X5 at least.

If you mean the trunk things like electric blind, rubber cargo holders which automatically goes from floor like 2mm to avoid your cargo move. Its available in EU x5m comp.

Btw I avoided display key this time. I have it in my 540i but... its useless. Especially if you use your bmw app. Big disadvantage is that you must charge it really often. Parking with the key - i never used that.

Is that parking available in x5m ? Like on normal key or on the display one?

Display key is nice but super useless and discharges quick.

I think the parking is only available for sedans like the 5 series and 7 series. My brother has the X5 and basically the display key is useless

X5 M Display key/Electric Cargo Cover...

Another Canadian here. Received one display key and one regular key with the X5 M a few weeks back. Also a piece of credit-card-like plastic that I was told will be enabled as a 'key' during the 1,200mi/2,000km servicing.

Agree with everyone that the display key is useless. Bulky, inconvenient, short life between charges & few useful features over the ordinary key. Rendered completely obsolete by BMW's Connected phone app.

A second regular key is pretty much essential for a happy marriage here. Alas, the dealer billed me ~ C$500 for it. Maybe not surprisingly, the integrated metal part of the key costs extra. (They wanted C$770 for a display key.) See attached invoices.

Forewarned is forearmed; a skilled negotiator should be able to score an 'extra' key up front as part of his/her deal.

This vehicle was also equipped with the 'Electric Cargo Cover'. To me, this seems a triumph of Rube Goldberg complexity over common sense. Not sure if they can supply a cargo-area mat that won't interfere with it. Would be glad to exchange for a conventional cover, except for the many hours of skilled labor likely required to make the change.

sounds like the display key is more hassle, the auto cargo cover just seems cool though

With the new Apple Car Key feature, the digital key is probably useless.

It's a about time Night Vision with Pedestrian Detection has been removed for MY21.

US market still doesn't have the skylounge .

I sent my sales manager my order build earlier this month for November build date for a F95 ZCP, I'm happy with full merino and B&W stereo— figure with the LCI new options will be added and those will be in my second F95.
