Exterior is awful.

Rear 3/4 looks like a dodge durango. Front looks like a beaver

Interior is nice though

We've seen some prototypes with the iconic hexagonal corona rings and we've seen others with only the bottom section of the rings as if the top had been cut off. Only two types of headlight are listed: laser and full LED. So those who won't want to shell out an arm and a leg for laser lights and will choose full LED will have to do without the iconic hexagonal rings which are now bundled with laser lights?

Edit: Autogefühl says there are 3 headlight types: LED, directional LED, Laser, so pretty sure the directional LED will get the same hexagonal corona rings as the Laser

Not personal lol. Just HATE the fugly oversized grilles on these new BMWs. Subjective, of course.

Actually looks more like the Acura MDX. And I feel like Acura actually did a better job.

Looks great, even with the huge grills. especially the M Sport version.
However, I read that the overall weight was going to be substantially lower, but it ended up being around the same if not a slightly more than the F15

Not bad exterior... interior is visually stunning. I just don't agree with the ignition button located on the center console. Would seem too easy for my elbow to accidentally turn off the engine or my small dog to step on it.

.5 more front legroom and almost 1 inch more rear legroom. I like it. Hopefully the third row seats fold or can be pulled out - don't need an X7 then.

Why are the kidneys so fucking big?! Aside from that, it's an improvement on the current. Still ugly as sin though. Rear lights look like that Alfa stelvio

Looks great. Love hearing current gen owners pretend theirs looks better. Current gen is great but this is a solid step forward.

Says there is in the first post

Optional third row seats (available 12/2018) features electric fore-and-aft adjustment. Control panel in the cargo area can be used to slide the second-row seats forwards or backwards and fold down the backrests of the second and third rows. The second-row seats can be tilted forward electrically to ease entry/exit into and out of the two third-row seats.

I think the E70 LCI is still the best looking SUV BMW has ever made
