It's also offered as an option in their M5/M6 models as well. From my understanding, if you do choose the HD radio option (for BMWs) you lose the real-time traffic nav function. Personally I'd rather stick to an MP3 player integration and keep the real time traffic.
"When most people first hear of HD Radio, they often assume it's like HDTV, but for radio. HD Radio is a very different technology, however. Unlike the "HD" in HDTV, the "HD" in HD Radio is not an abbreviation for "High Definition." Although some have said that it actually means "Hybrid Digital," according to iBiquity, "HD" is a trademarked brand name and doesn't actually stand for anything [Source: Crutchfield Advisor]."
