5 reasons to buy the 2022 BMW X7

1. Room for your crew

If you're shuttling kids for soccer practice or chauffeuring your friends for a night out, the BMW X7 offers plenty of space, with standard seating for seven people. If you choose the available captain's chairs rather than a bench for the second row, you can seat six. The second and third rows both come with two sets of LATCH connectors, perfect for families with multiple kids in car seats.

2. Standard all-wheel drive

Are you the type that would prefer to call out sick when the roads are slick or icy? The 2022 BMW X7 can offer you peace of mind with standard all-wheel drive on every trim. That, coupled with standard features including adaptive LED headlights and rain-sensing windshield wipers, makes the BMW X7 ready for any weather.

3. Tons of standard features

Finding the best mix of features might feel overwhelming but that doesn't have to be the case. The BMW X7 makes things simple thanks to tons of standard features including synthetic leather seating, heated front seats, and smartphone connectivity.

You'll also appreciate that plenty of driver-assist features — including lane departure warning and speed limit recognition — come standard too.

4. Top-notch tech and audio

The BMW X7 comes standard with tech and audio capabilities that make every drive more fun, whether you're an actual DJ or just play one for your friends. The 2022 X7 comes standard with a 12-inch touchscreen as well as Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto, and Bluetooth® connectivity. A 10-speaker audio system and HD radio are standard, while a 16-speaker Harman Kardon® surround-sound system is an available option.

5. Towing capabilities

Whether you're a camper, boater, or equine enthusiast, the 2022 BMW X7 is a fit for your towing needs. The X7 comes standard with a 335-hp turbocharged six-cylinder engine. With that engine, the BMW X7 can tow up to an estimated 5,400 pounds when properly equipped.

If you choose one of the two available twin-turbo V8 engine options, the X7 can tow up to an estimated 5,950 lbs when properly equipped — or an estimated 7,500 lbs with the optional tow hook.
