Next Generation TFT

[Grumpy Goat]

Here's a little info on the next BMW TFT display.

With this I'm guessing there will be no Navigator VII.

Maybe not but with the Navigator reputation for navigational accuracy, exorbitant price, screen heebie-jeebies on the Nav VI, even this "ho-hum" display should be better. Besides one less screen to look thereby freeing up more cockpit real estate.

That said, how this one works though is not too impressive to me:

"How does it work? You have to download the free smartphone app, tho connect via Bluetooth, and to set up the destination on the smartphone. The TFT Dash is taking over the information and shows you the guidance (it also features audio guidance). Of course, you can also listen to music and make calls.

For safety reasons, it probably won’t feature a touchscreen and will be controlled via the jog-wheel on the left handlebar. It also doesn’t seem to have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto."
