Cornering lights
I have the 40i without the laser lights. Do I have cornering lights? Is there a setting or a way to turn them on?

If you have the lights in Auto, drive at low speeds and make a sharp turn, check the outer side of the corner you are turning into. You should be able to see an additional area that's being illuminated.

Cornering lights are not included with the standard Full Adaptive LED headlights on 40i and 50i. See last photo and highlighted area: On X7s, only Adaptive Full LED headlight with Laserlight, which is currently only available on M50i, include LED cornering light.

Currently and unfortunately there isn't an upgrade option for prospective X7 owners unless you "upgrade" to M50i. Only consolation is that the standard and laserlight headlight designs look similar.

That's interesting - so I guess the info I got from another owner is not accurate then:
https://g07.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...rnering+lights I knew that the non-laser X5 lacked cornering-lights but I thought the X7 was different. Sorry...

I have a 2020 X7 40i I googled X7 40i window stickers and this came up and cornering lights are listed under exterior: https://monroneylabels.com/cars/642583-2019-bmw-x7 |

It’s looking like it should be there. I wonder what BMW has to say about that.

Regions like UK have 3 headlight options but the 552 option includes cornering.

I tried to get better pictures of where the lights should be. I also included my window sticker which says nothing about cornering lights

Here you go. I have an October 2019 build 2020 X7 40i. Here's a picture of my left front headlight with the standard Adaptive LED headlights for the 40i. This is the "Only" option for the 40i model. You can see the plugged cutout where the cornering lights would be if it had them.
I was pissed when I found out I couldn't even order it without moving up to the 50i. I almost cancelled my order because of the Laser Lights and the B&W Sound System option not being on the build site. I didn't realize that fact until after the build had already started. |

Looks like you beat me to the punch. I was posting my picture and my same complaints. Bad marketing practices as far as I'm concerned. The build sites can't keep up with the BMW changes.
Why doesn't BMW just post an updated build/option sheet on the website in addition to the graphical build interface. The Sales Rep should have given me a copy of that automatically since I already told him that I wanted to special order my vehicle. I feel your pain... |

I got real used to the kick to open feature for the trunk. Last few cars had it and I liked it. I had the trailer hitch on all those cars too. In the X7 if you get the hitch, you don't get the kick to open. Kind of wish it said that somewhere before I ordered the hitch. I mean, I have the hitch just in case. I don't own a trailer or plan on towing anything. But just in case, I always get the hitch. BUT I OPEN MY TRUNK A LOT EVERY WEEK!
