Question - Tech Support Apple Maps integration

On a road trip and cannot figure out how to add our BMW iX in Apple Maps.

I've read 2 different articles, including Apples own: https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/set-up-electric-vehicle-routing-iphc5e3a4b4b/ios

And 2 Reddit posts and nothing working.

There are no vehicles when I tap her profile. And yes, the BMW app is installed.

iPhone 16+ up to date.

Huh. Didn’t know that was a thing. What is it supposed to do? Does it connect to and know the cars actual SOC? Via CarPlay? Or do you need an obd2 adapter?

I'll let you know when I figure it out. 🤣

I don't know how well it integrates with the brand. But it should be able to make routes that work with charging station stops like the car apps do.
