I don't know, perhaps it's just me, but I really enjoyed the days when "grills" on cars were actually functional pieces. Especially on performance cars. Yeah, I get the whole electric car situation. It is one thing that bugs me about my X3 M40. But thankfully, that's now my wife's car 😆. I just love walking up from the front of the M and see light pass through each one and having a cooler, intake, vent it leads to. But I suppose a car without even a fake, closed piece of plastic would just make it look like one of those cave salamanders with no eyes...

Well, much can be said about the size of the kidney these days. It's easy to see the difference in design language to a more bolder and expressive look. But alot of these larger kidneys are well made, besides the 7 and X7. It actually gives an impression that the 5 and the coming LCI are dated and not up to par to the new design BMW have these days. Just look at the highly succsesful G05.
G30 are a really boring car, perhaps the dullest 5 ever made, it's got no personlity or charisma, looks like the LCI will not improve the situation?

The 7 LCI is one ugly car. What a disaster.

Not much changes, if any major I'd wouldn't be happy, current g30 is the best looking car they ever made in this and I'm happy with what I got and will be until it dies. Lol

I am getting really, really sick of this new design language. I hate the new angel eyes - if you can even call them that. They look so cheap and not at all like a bmw.

The top of the "grill" is an extension over the actual grill, to avoid the "broken hood line" of the prev gen. But the actual hood is still just as high/back, and the front plastic is just as large for pedestrian safety. Just meant to look like more grill.

I wonder how many pedestrians are actually hit by cars and what country has the most.

Or this LCI design was signed-off/approved before the 4 series concept... these cars are not all on the same development schedule. Plus, the target demographic for the 4 and 5 is different, as well.
