BMW of Russian assembly warn about the border with Ukraine when entering Crimea

Satellite navigation on the Russian-assembled BMW X6 recognizes Crimea as the territory of Ukraine. This greatly upset Moscow resident Oleg Yakushkin, who recently decided to buy a BMW crossover assembled in Kaliningrad. BMW of Russian assembly warn about the border with Ukraine when entering Crimea

In his new car, he headed to Crimea, and the standard navigator set a route to Sevastopol through the territory of Ukraine. Oleg went through the Krasnodar region, but exactly in the middle of the Crimean Bridge, the navigation system informed him that he had crossed the border with Ukraine. Even in Crimea itself, the localities were indicated by the navigation as Ukrainian.

This angered the Muscovite, and upon returning home he even went to complain at the dealership where he bought the BMW X6. However, no one helped him there. Well, what can you do? BMW uses GPS navigation – it’s not some kind of GLONASS. So it makes sense that Crimea is shown as Ukrainian on the maps.
