From the charts above, FVDI2 FLY and VVDI2 Xhorse almost share the same functions.
They mainly differ in these aspects:
1 OBD read CS/PIN of MED17
2 generate OEM remote control
3 software authorization
FVDI2 full kit includes software for VAG – VW, Audi, Seat, Skoda; Porsche; Mercedes/Smart/Maybach; OPEL/VAUXHALL; BMW; Peugeot/Citroen; Fiat/Alfa/Lancia; Renault; Toyota/Lexus; Hyundai/KIA; Nissan/Infiniti; TAG Key Tool; Ford; Volvo;Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep; Mitsubishi; DAF; Bikes, Snowmobiles and Water scooters.
Your FVDI2 commander can be authorized; cost depends on vehicles

My final decision:
Have read lots of info in webs. i was told that if tools are only for VAG + BMW , then VVDI2 and VVDI prog is the best way to go. No need any other tool. 90% of VAG and BMW can be done by OBD in VVDI2:

VVDI programmer don’t have OBD it’s only for bench programming.
Good for CAS4, FRM, EZS, EWS4 and many more.
