More presence, more sportiness, more digitalisation: The new BMW X7 breaks new ground for richly assured driving pleasure in the luxury car segment. The first Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) in this vehicle category offers an inimitable combination of exclusivity, dynamic excellence, luxuriant spaciousness and versatility. Indeed, the X7 has quickly developed into the most successful BMW model in the luxury class. And now its unique character profile has been honed to significant effect thanks to extensive design refinements - most notably a visually impactful front end - plus a new-look M Sport package, light-alloy wheels measuring up to 23 inches (a first for BMW) and the latest-generation iDrive control/operation system including BMW Curved Display and BMW Operating System 8. The new BMW X7 also comes with a further expanded range of standard equipment, additional driver assistance systems and the latest 48V mild hybrid technology for all engine variants. The new BMW X7 is a central pillar in the ongoing product offensive at the most exclusive reaches of the premium carmaker's model line-up. The new X7 will be produced at BMW Group Plant Spartanburg, the competence centre for BMW X models in the US state of South Carolina, where the BMW X6BMW X5BMW X4 and BMW X3 are also built. Alongside the USA and Canada, the most important sales regions for the luxurious SAV also include China and other Asian markets, Germany, the Middle East and Australia. The worldwide market launch for the new BMW X7 will get underway in August 2022.

Exclusive aura, imposing character


The largest of all BMW X models opens up new boundaries for enjoying an exclusive driving experience; its outstanding spaciousness and hallmark BMW driving dynamics can be sampled on surfaced roads and beyond. The versatility of the new X7 extends from its ability to cut a classically elegant figure on the road to a taste for action off the beaten track. Exterior dimensions underscoring the presence of the new BMW X7, generous levels of on-board space, equipment features of exceptional quality and a high-class cabin ambience for occupants in three rows of seats combine with powerful six- and eight-cylinder engines, state-of-the-art chassis technology and BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive to create a case study in all-round poise and assurance. With an exterior length of 5,162 millimetres, a width of 2,000 millimetres, a height of 1,819 millimetres and a wheelbase measuring 3,105 millimetres, the new BMW X7 is immediately identifiable as the largest SAV in the brand's line-up. The newly interpreted exterior and interior design flags up the car's standout status even more vividly. The new BMW X7 displays a strikingly updated front- and rear-end design as it adopts the new design language of BMW models for the luxury segment. The significantly upgraded standard equipment of the new X7 now also includes the Design Pure Excellence features. And the optional, newly designed M Sport package shines an even brighter spotlight on its dynamic driving properties. This aspect of the large SAV's character can be accentuated more clearly still by specifying the M Sport package Pro.

Interior and equipment


The high levels of driving pleasure and long-distance comfort offered by the new BMW X7 are complemented by a modern digital ambience on board and an innovative cockpit design. The integration of BMW Operating System 8 and the latest generation of the iDrive control/operation system also heralds the arrival of the BMW Curved Display in the large Sports Activity Vehicle. Other control elements can be found on the centre console with the newly designed gear selector and Driving Experience Control buttons. The generous spaciousness of the new BMW X7 can be enjoyed across three rows of seats. The second row of seats accommodates three passengers as standard or two in individual seats as an option. New seat surfaces and bold colour combinations add to the interior's contemporary feel. The further expanded range of standard equipment goes to new lengths in enhancing the comfort of those on board and maximising their wellbeing. As well as the Sport leather steering wheel with gearshift paddles, four-zone automatic climate control, ambient lighting, panoramic glass sunroof and hi-fi system, it now also includes heated comfort seats for the driver and front passenger, a tray for wirelessly charging compatible mobile phones and Comfort Access.

Premiere for the new six-cylinder in-line petrol engine in the BMW X7 xDrive 40i


With an all-new package of technology on board, the six-cylinder in-line petrol engine from the new modular generation of units achieves a typically BMW two-pronged leap forward - upping the power and lowering its emissions. Making its debut in the new BMW X7 xDrive40i, the engine boasts a wealth of innovations when it comes to the combustion process, gas exchange, valve control, injection and ignition system involved. Its maximum output of 280 kW/380 hp is up by 35 kW/47 hp compared to its predecessor's figure, while peak torque rises by 70 Nm (52 lb-ft) to 520 Nm (383 lb-ft) - and can be boosted to as much 540 Nm (398 lb-ft) with the input of the mild hybrid system. The Miller cycle shortens the opening time of the intake valves, which subsequently leads to an increase in the effectiveness of the turbocharging system and the intercooler. This reduces fuel consumption and emission levels significantly across the entire load range and thus in day-to-day driving. The effect is further enhanced by redesigning the intake port and combustion chamber to optimise both mixture formation and combustion efficiency. Using an active coil with integrated electronics also allows the ignition system to be adapted to the new combustion process.

Exterior design


The typical proportions of a Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV), a spacious interior allowing a range of possible uses, and multi-faceted, agile driving properties showcase the extravagant character of the new BMW X7 in consummate style. Extensive design modifications accentuate the exclusivity and presence of the largest BMW X model even more vividly. The changes centre on the new design of the front and rear ends, which underscores more clearly than ever the status of the new BMW X7 as one of the brand's flagship models. With the all-new interpretation of its headlight unit design, it joins the new BMW i7 and BMW Concept XM in presenting the future face of BMW's luxury segment models. The modern, visually striking front end of the new BMW X7 clearly signals its progressive and exclusive style. Light-alloy wheels with a 23-inch diameter - available as a factory-fit option here for the first time on a BMW model - emphasise the car's powerful stature in dramatic style. Added to which, an array of high-quality details point to the exclusive status of the new X7. These include the three-dimensional rear lights, the newly designed bars in the illuminated BMW kidney grille and the eye-catching blades in the front apron with their aluminium satinated finish.

The complete package: Driving Assistant Professional with Steering and Lane Control Assistant plus new Lane Change Assistant


If the optional Driving Assistant Professional package is specified, Active Cruise Control can be used at speeds up to 210 km/h (130 mph) and, in Germany, is also able to factor in traffic signals when controlling the vehicle's speed. At a large number of traffic signals, if a red light is detected by the system, this is displayed in the instrument cluster. Regardless of whether the cruise control system is activated, at many traffic lights the drive-off reminder tells the driver when the lights switch to green. Drivers of the new BMW X7 can also utilise the services of the Steering and Lane Control Assistant to continue along their current course - likewise at up to 210 km/h (130 mph) - with the assistance of smooth steering corrections. This assistance system now also includes the Active Navigation function, which helps the driver to keep to the route calculated by the navigation system on multi-lane roads. Another new function is available to aid the driver on these kinds of routes: the Active Lane Change and Merging Assistant is designed to facilitate the manoeuvre in question with a guiding steering input while adjusting the speed as appropriate.
