BMW does offer this. I believe that it does not do this when you have real time traffic info on. Just turn off traffic alerts and see what happens at night. Also observe the map colors once you turn of the traffic alerts.

FWIW, my 2010 X35d does not switch to night mode automatically. However, it does dim the display with the control that dims the instrument lights. They only way to switch to night mode is manually.

I have set one of the push buttons to switch the display from night mode to day mode and back to make it easier to change.

I don't think the display changes to night mode automatically - I've tried each of the different modes without success. I too programmed one of the preset buttons to switch modes.
