Built in reverse camera?

The X5 protrudes out as well, no additional functionality. I believe it's because of the angle of the rear hatch/boot where the emblem is on, it makes the emblem faces down to the ground, so by protruding it out, it makes the emblem vertically inclined rather than at an odd angle. The built-in reverse camera is 'hidden' just next to the license plate led light.
