2023 BMW X7 review

1. Extra space

The X7 is the largest vehicle in the BMW lineup, so that means more space for you and your crew. The three-row 2023 X7 seats seven and has 12.8 cu-ft of space with all seats in place, but if you drop the third row that number jumps up to 48.6 cu-ft. Fold the second and third rows and you're up to a whopping 90.4 cu-ft, which means the 2023 X7 can tackle whatever you can throw at it. Heading to hockey practice? Bring the whole team (or at least a few teammates).

2. Upscale interior

The 2023 X7 isn't just a good option because of all that extra room, it's got a fantastic interior as well. With standard luxury touches throughout, the X7 is incredibly comfortable. Even the base xDrive40i gets you BMW's "Sensafin" simulated leather, multi-contour heated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, and more. Naturally, there is an almost endless list of packages and standalone comfort and convenience options, so you're likely to find just the right BMW X7 for you.

3. Tech for days

Apple CarPlay^® and Android Auto^™ connectivity is great, and naturally, it comes as standard and is controlled through a 14.9-inch infotainment touchscreen, but there is a lot more tech in the 2023 X7. In addition to cool driving tech, like air suspension and adaptive LED headlights that swivel as you turn, the interior is packed with cool futuristic stuff. Wireless charging, customizable ambient lighting, and a heads-up display (and more) are all standard. The M60i trim adds amazing tech like gesture control, where you can wave your hand at the screen to change settings. The future is now with the 2023 X7.

4. Powerful engine options

You should already assume that BMW will deliver driving excitement, even in its largest vehicle. That is definitely the case with the 2023 X7. Check out the base xDrive40i and you'll love its turbocharged 3L inline six-cylinder engine with 375 horsepower. Or, upgrade to the mighty M60i which has an impressive turbocharged 4.4L V8 putting out 523 horsepower. And then there is the very special Alpina XB7, which upgrades the M60i model's V8 and makes a massive 630 horsepower.

5. Driver aids

All that technology isn't just reserved for comfort and convenience features, the 2023 X7 delivers a huge suite of driver aids. All the features you'd expect like forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, and more all come standard. However, look for tons of optional driver aids like an automated parking system, adaptive cruise control, collision detection that can change lanes automatically, and a whole lot more. The 2023 BMW X7 has your back when conditions get tricky.
