A significant change to the 2023 BMW X7 comes to its exterior as it now sports a fresh fascia thanks to the new split twin headlights with horizontal LED light elements set higher up in the front end housing the daytime driving lights and turn signal indicators. The larger grille takes precedence as the bottom half is now trimmed down to give the car an upright stance as well as help with the massive footprint it occupies. The top-spec BMW X7 M60i xDrive gets the glowing BMW kidney grille as standard and will be offered as an option for the other variants. At the rear, the slim light units have three-dimensional sculpting, while a chrome bar connecting the rear light units is enclosed within a glass cover.
