Question 2021 E450 Coupe Media Screen - Split?

Just turned in my 2018 E400 Coupe for the new E450 Coupe and the media screen has been updated considerably. Does anyone know if it’s possible to split the media screen (half Navi/half music) in the new system?

I was wondering the same thing. I hope to get an e450 cabriolet. On my current Bmw, I can have 3 things up at the same time. However the actual speedometer area can’t be changed. So because you can change the speedometer area, maybe you can’t change the mbux area.
ps. Beautiful car.

I made the move from BMW to MBZ back in 2017, after seven different Bimmers and I’ve been really happy. My internal organs are grateful too, considering they were abused all those years by BMW suspension. Don’t get me wrong, they drive great but eventually the gut-juggling on city streets really gets to you. The E coupe has a much better ride. And in Sport or Sport+ it rivals all of my previous Bimmers.
Back to screen mgmt. You can change the speedo area into a million different things, but on this new model I can’t figure out how to split the MBUX Media part of the screen (on the right side). I’m going to be bummed if its not possible any longer with the new system.

Thanks!

After two BMW 5 series (both 6 cylinder models) 5 years ago I switched to a 2016 E350 (6 cylinder) and I am presently in a 2019 E450.

I drive the same interstate to Vermont from Long Island 8 to 12 times a year for skiing. In my first trip in my E350 upon arrival I asked my friends whether they had just repaved I-91 - the ride was that much better. With my E450, I have an even quieter ride and I believe the suspension is even better than the E350 it replaced.

Not that the Bimmer was a bad car, but for long drives, it does not compare to a 'Benz!

To answer your question, no. That's now gone because of MBUX, the virtual turn by turn arrows and camera. It uses that part of the screen you used to split.
