What is an active SIM card and what is it needed for?

In BMW vehicles from 2014, a SIM card is permanently installed and always active. This SIM card is the basic prerequisite for the use of ConnectedDrive as well as the fulfillment of legal requirements such as the legal emergency call.
For the provision of ConnectedDrive services such as BMW Intelligent Emergency Call, Concierge Service, Teleservice, etc., data is exchanged between the vehicle and BMW via the mobile network and processed at BMW for service provision.

For more detailed information on which data is involved in each individual case, please refer to the legal information on data protection.

If you do not want to use the ConnectedDrive offers, you can have your SIM card deactivated. Please contact your BMW dealer for this purpose.

In addition to an active SIM card, you need a BMW ID to access all BMW ConnectedDrive services.

  • Save your vehicles and configurations.
