I'm not sure what the difference is supposed to be, but I have a 2011 and a 2013 X6 so can explain what I see as different (maybe this will answer the question?)

Hardware is identical visibly - Same buttons, control dial, etc.

Screen menu is different, but I expect this is only software. It has option for "Office".

I've updated my iPhone with the Beta 6.0 op system and it works "nearly" perfectly

Full access to all contacts (I have a lot, prior BMW never showed full list), calendar, Twitter, Facebook, Texts, etc.

Only issue is that I can't display e-mails. Which, is not really an issue as I would not do this while driving regardless.

Both my '11 and '13 have the same HUD displays also - not the new (color) version in the 6 series.

Overall, I find the iDrive very fast and functional. Eager to learn what the "new" version has if I don't already have it.

Hope this helps!
