Front is nowhere close to what it will be on final X5

The AMS render above is wrong on several aspects...rather an X3 copy. The new X5 will be different, not a bloated X3. Lot of new technologies will be introduced.

Design elements which will appear in F15 X5:

The front grill will be somewhat like this pic below with angle at top 1/3. The top outside corners of kidney grill will be sharp, more like diamond shaped.


The front bumper scoops will have LEDs fog lights as below:


The headlights will be full LED or if all goes well, laser lights, as that's what BMW is targeting for headlights.


The side view mirrors will look like this, but bigger:


Tail light graphics will have some 3D effect as shown below. Corner section will be lower than the hatch section.


It will also have the X-series trademark(new) kink.
