They had stopped this before 2019.

> That convenience wasn't lost on BMW, which for the 2019 model year turned CarPlay from a $300 stand-alone option into a subscription through its ConnectedDrive suite of app services, at $80 per year or $300 for 20 years.

So, since the 2019 model year was available in 2018, they stopped it in 2018.

I have a 2019 model bought in 2018 and it has absolutely no ongoing fees to use CarPlay, which I do daily.
