What comes under the boot carpets from standard?

Got a G21 Touring that I picked up with just a few thousand miles on a couple of weeks ago..

Was just curious what comes under the boot carpets from factory, I’ve got a first aid kit on the right hand side & a small toolkit on the left with wrench, locking nut & tow hook. Although I can see there’s space in the further under floor storage (the one with the little pull out stand) that’s empty, and also a bit of space in where the tools are.

Just wanted to know what I was missing!

Thanks

Depends if you have RFT or not - if not you should have the mobility kit consisting of a compressor and a bottle of sealing gunk. If you have RFT you won’t have that.

I've a similar question. I only seem to have a locking wheel nut under the floor. I have no towing eye for starters, but before I go back to dealer and ask to sort, what else should come as standard with a MY21 330e with RFTs?

Thanks

Same here. 21 build 330e G21 xDrive, RFTs, and just a locking wheel nut key in the cubbyhole.

Thanks. Thats very strange. Maybe xDrives dont get towing eye as they shouldnt be towed? however the manual suggests any car with auto transmission shouldnt be. But what if you want to tow another car?

Also thought there was a screwdriver included. Not going to lose any sleep over not having that, but if it should be in there...

I have the above plus mobility kit because I don’t have RFT on my 330i.

I can also confirm that my 330i x-drive G21 has an on-board tool kit (wheel nut, towing eye and screwdriver) located in the left deep storage compartment in the boot. The toolkit is also mentioned in my manual. Is it in yours? If so I would check again in the trunk to be sure and then call the dealer.

I think the manuals are a little vague when it comes to specific models.
I have towing eyes etc all listed in the manuals, however it would appear that the 330e is not supplied with a towing eye. Not sure why.

The manual doesnt seem to mention anything.

The dealer thinks it may be as expected as BMW do not recommend the hybrids are towed. So not sure how I get the car moved if its busted, or how I get it loaded onto a tow truck bed. Or how I tow other cars if desired.

Would be interested if any other 330e's on here are the same.
Thanks
