Tech is changing much quicker and manufacturers have the high tech means to make changes faster. In the old days you had a halogen lights, analog gauges, a radio and HVAC not much was going to change mid model outside of some modest styling changes. Now you can update gauges, LCE screens, infotainment, LED lights, etc very quickly. These changes are more pronounced than most LCI but I believe that probably has a lot to do with the X3 now being the bread and butter vehicle for BMW and they need to keep it fresh mid generation as it has a big influence on overall brand sales.
