Any remaining actual buttons and the iDrive regulator on the mid control area will remain completely utilitarian. As a side note, BMW presented contact usefulness for its iDrive infotainment framework interestingly with the iDrive 5 out of 2016.
The following are the models that will briefly be sent without a touchscreen work:

G29 Z4
G05/G06/G07 (X5, X6, and X7)

If you see the 6UY choice code on the window sticker of a BMW you are looking at a display area, remember that it needs contact usefulness for the infotainment framework.
