Will the Curt Echo Work on a 2021 BMW X3 Plug In Hybrid

I have a 2021 BMW x3 30e plug in electric hybrid with 4400 tow capacity has OEM tow package with 7 pin outlet and have a popup with electric brakes. Will the Curt ECHO wireless brake controller work with my vehicle?

Yes. The Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 will work with your 2021 BMW X3 plug in hybrid with the OEM towing package and it's really the best solution since it won't require any splicing into the vehicle wiring, which would be required with a standard cabin mounted brake controller. The Echo connects to your smart phone (Android 4.4 or newer/iOS 8.0 or newer required) and provides you with proportional braking for your trailer.
I've linked a review and installation video of this controller for you to have a look at.
