Where can I get South America Map for iDrive6?

Hello

I have a X5/2018 (F15) with EVO version "N" but no Navigation option is present.
How difficult is enable this feature?

In addition, where can I download a South America map?

Thank you!

To be honest if you have idrive 6 you have carplay. Why don't you use waze (which is great in many parts of south America) or Google Maps? You can also get the patch to make it full screen. I don't think I have used the maps on my X5 or any car since carplay. The HUD map display isn't important to me since it doesn't work well with sunglasses - or at least the ones I use.

Ontopic: you need additional hardware to activate the navigation in your car. For the latest map, ask any dealer in your area.
