If you are lucky to have the right (rare) hardware combination, yes. Otherwise only if you pay for the “CarPlay ready/CarPlay preparation” option at the time ordering and order/have “Nav Plus” package. Edit- FROM 08/2019 MOST CARS WITH ENTRYNAV2 HU CAN HAVE CARPLAY INSTALLED VIA THIS FORUM.
As BMW will want to earn income from subscription services, it may be “CarPlay preparation” will become a standard feature in more markets. For u.k it is currently still shown as £235 option for F48 which has to be ordered with £1,605 “Nav Plus” package. It really should not be this difficult.
