For my 2017 X1 (2016) build, the new My BMW app allows me to use Alexa and access Siri / (but not Google Assistant) from the vehicle. My vehicle does NOT have Carplay or a touchscreen. I thought this was pretty cool as it seems they rolled this feature into older vehicles. It seems to use bluetooth from the vehicle to the MyBMW app then trigger the voice feature on the phone. (long press of the 'speak' button on the steering wheel will work too.). I also have the car horn button still. I have had an issue with sending a destination to the car being delayed though and had to use the Connected App to send as we had 9 stops to make on that route.
