The new generation of the BMW X5 has omitted the iconic two-part tailgate, a feature that has defined all previous versions of the SUV since its debut in 1999. According to BMW, this change was driven by user feedback indicating that the lower part of the two-part gate made loading and unloading difficult, especially for drivers of average height. Additionally, the new design features a more coupe-like roofline, which required lowering the upper edge of the tailgate while increasing the opening width to improve access to the cargo area. However, many owners of older X5 models have criticized the removal of the two-part tailgate, considering it one of the most practical and beloved features of the vehicle.
