Of course, the BMW X5's appearance has also been tweaked for 2007. The front fascia has been massaged and sits below revised headlights, which in turn feed into fenders featuring more aggressive flares. Flanks are accented by a distinct crease, updated mirror housings, a sharp inward curvature at the bottom of the doors, and muscular rear wheel wheels. Out back is another reworked fascia and a split tailgate comprised of an upward-swing lid and a lower folding tailgate. There's less space between the taillights and lower edge of the rear glass, and the fold-down tailgate has eliminated the need for a pronounced bumper step.
