This is how (sadly) things work for BMW. You want the new UI? Pay a new car.
Even when they released iDrive 6 which was only an updated skin for iDrive 5, they didn’t officially allow any updates and it had to be done via coding. And then you have Teslas from 2012 than in 2023 they still receive the latest UI via OTA updates.

BMW has also never had an in between iDrive version (8.5 rather than 9).
