Some new shots of X6 facelift. Notable changes are new Gran Coupe(see my signature below) like LED headlights and new front bumper. There are rumors that there will be tri-turbo 50d diesel engine. The current 50i and 35i engines are also supposed to get some power boost. The facelift will be in the market later this year or early next year.

Near Production Front Fascia-X6 50i- LCI/Facelift
 

This is a near production front fascia..no camo tape on the air intakes.The question has been raised that on previous 50i X6 LCI spy shots no fog lamps have been visible on previous test mules. I think I might have found the fog lamps or a brand new fancy light treatment. Look carefully at the middle bar inside the air intakes.There is an equal amount of tape missing on each side of the middle bar on both the left hand and right hand side air intakes.The middle bar in both air intakes is larger than the other bars in the air intake.A small diameter LED lamp???...not 100% sure.... but something is going on inside the air intakes. That's all for now. Thanks. PalBay

Thanks, Palbay. They are definitely hiding something in the center bar. Probably a straight line LED rather than the individual ones like Audi or MB.

I have a quick comparo shot below for pre-LCI vs. LCI. The kidney grill frame on LCI X6 is definitely wider. The kidney slats are still 7, but thicker with an angle.
Area below kidney grill is black instead of silver. New headlights, etc. ;)

The new angel eyes look awesome for the x6~~! I am wondering if there is any change for the interior, is there any change for the central console and speedometer as the change for the new 5er. And also if there's new head up display as the new 6er.

Winter testing in Sweden. Press release coming on Jan 19th.
