I don't believe that the X5 in Europe has the BluePerformance available to meet the EU6 standard. We have something like this for North America due to California's (pointlessly stringent) standards, but BMW has not offered it on the X5 in other markets yet.

I agree with the LED use. I don't like the Christmas lighting found on VWs thesedays, it's too bling and not tasteful. Everyone will have his/her opinion on this. Also since this was just a LCI and not a redesign, BMW probably had some price target to meet and didn't want to radically change everything. In all likelihood, the redesign will have LED turn signals as an option, if not standard.
