I hope this isn't the 2014 X5 (F15)! The taillights are awful. Vertical lights on a broad boot is suicidal. There's too much bare space at the back. The taillights in the current E70 X5 are spread across the back of the car and look better because they make the area look more compact.
The F15's vertical lights leave too much space and have a comical look.
My advice to BMW is look before you leap. Toyota 4 Runners and Land Cruiser Prados have been sporting verticals for years. These 4WDs are not associated with finesse.
I cannot see why BMW want to follow Toyota's lead.
