I am interested in your satisfaction with the navigation system.
i live in central Italy and recently bought my first BMW an X1 xDrive25e. I am delighted with it after a steep learning curve. But the navigator is a disappointment:
I am using EUROPE Way 2021-2. I have learnt the hard way that:
• Many roads are missing; some that existed long before digital maps were widely available, and others that have been created or changed in recent years.
• Many place names are missing or shown in the wrong location.
• The route-finding algorithm is unreliable and quirky. It recommends unsuitable roads, such as one with a tunnel fit only for cyclists and pedestrians! It copes poorly with enforced departures from the recommended route, often advising long detours when a simple short alternative is available.
• There appears to be no way to report map and route errors.
Do you think I am missing something important?
Thanks for any feedback.
