"... complimentary Connected Package Professional or BMW Assist Safety Plan subscription will automatically be activated for your BMW until February 1, 2022."
There was no mentioning of converting the 3G to 4/5G.

(2) week 2017 REx owner here.
1st vehicle purchase since ......2003. (My daily driver, an 04 Dodge Dakota 4x4 at 208k needs a rest). For me, cruise control, and express down drivers side windows were luxuries.
Activated connected drive package with RTTI, managed to avoid plenty of traffic mess here in ATL.
I love seeing my charge status, since I do level 1 to full nightly. Caught it not charging a few times. (not plugged in all the way at wall)
Actually flipped open the app and caught my car door open (not fully closed)
98°F yesterday. Preconditioning kept me from smelling funky while waiting for the refrigerant to circulate.
Yanked the back bottom seat out, have a 4g com box.
Surely BWM wouldn't let a person register for services that are about to expire in 8 months.
