Always wanted to play Uno in your car, but worried about losing the cards between the seats? BMW has come up with a solution.

100s of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now.
Players use their personal smartphones as controllers to play the game – which can only be activated when the car is parked – and presumably start fights with other occupants about the specific rules of Uno.
Current BMW vehicles running Operating System 8.5 include the 5 Series, 7 Series, iX, X5, X6, X7 and XM.
At present it’s only available in models which run BMW’s Operating System 8.5 and are fitted with an embedded personal eSIM, which have also recently received an over-the-air update.
AirConsole includes additional games such as “Who Wants to be a Millionaire?”, in addition to other lesser-known titles.
