Well they need to boost the initial sale of the updated model. I would be surprised if BMW keeps all the same as now, and launch the LCI with just uodated cosmetics and lack of technology
I don't think not offering laser lights on the X3 would stop anyone from ordering or buying the X3 after LCI. However, being told an option is there but not currently being offered due to chip shortages, or worse, finding out that the X3 you ordered with laser lights won't actually have it because of the chip shortage that is something I could see stopping someone from buying one.

Agreed, the LED’s are fantastic on the X3 and I have laser lights on my wife’s X5 which isn’t like an oh my God difference!

This probably only affects those who already own a G01 X3 pre LCI and would not jump on this (like many other LCI releases). But they already have their money. Lol.

For everyone else, it's still a different/new car and should not matter that much.
