What have you named your car?
Hey BMW gets old after a while, curious what the best names are out there? I chose "Q" after the Bond movies.

Mine has changed to MoneyPenny, Q was being triggered too often when I was just talking to someone in the car.

I’ve not changed the default - the level of eye-roll I would get from the misses if I got cute might not be worth it ;-) |

I changed it again. Don't say anything else, just press the microphone button on the steering wheel.

Aside - I think a lot of folks haven’t even scratched the surface of what you can do with the voice assistant. I think that’s often the main substitute for physical switchgear and it takes a bit of time to get used to that and what you can really do with voice commands

I agree about voice assistant. I find I'm using it more and more. Very impressed with the native nav system's database and routing. A huge improvement there from the nav in the 2017 G30. Voice control can do pretty much anything you can do with the rest of the controls.
