BMW 7 Series (2015-2022) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Sharper to drive than most luxury cars	Doesn't ride with the serenity of a Mercedes S-Class
Slick iDrive infotainment system	Plain looks and an ungainly grille
Huge rear-seat space in long-wheelbase versions	Complex technology could land used 7 Series owners with a big bill

Quick Summary

The BMW 7 Series (2015-2022), known as the G11 model, is a luxury limousine that combines lavish interiors with extensive equipment. Whilst its vast grille dominates the front end, the rest of the styling is somewhat plain and shares similarities with lesser BMWs. The car offers plenty of space to stretch out, with a 515-litre boot and optional long-wheelbase versions providing an extra 14cm between the wheels for enhanced rear legroom. Long-wheelbase models also feature a glass sunroof, roller blind for the rear windscreen, and optional ventilated reclinable rear seats and panoramic glass roof.

The 7 Series offers a choice of three petrol and two diesel engines, plus a plug-in hybrid option, all paired with an eight-speed automatic gearbox. Most buyers choose the 328bhp 3.0-litre petrol turbo 740i or the 282bhp 3.0-litre turbodiesel 730d, both delivering hushed, effortless progress. Air suspension comes as standard, effectively damping road imperfections, though the large wheels with slim tyre sidewalls can sometimes thump over sharper bumps. The 730d achieves around 45mpg in real-world driving, whilst petrol versions are considerably thirstier, with the 740i managing approximately 30mpg. Three core trim levels are available: the base model, the Exclusive for luxury, and the M Sport for sporty styling. The 7 Series is a good car, but its rivals offer a greater sense of occasion and refinement.

Best for: Buyers seeking a spacious, well-equipped luxury saloon with sharp handling and advanced infotainment, particularly those interested in long-wheelbase versions for enhanced rear comfort.

Not ideal for: Those prioritising the serene ride quality of a Mercedes S-Class, buyers concerned about complex technology repair costs, or those seeking distinctive, eye-catching styling.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the 7 Series if: You seek a spacious, well-equipped luxury saloon with sharp handling and advanced infotainment, particularly if interested in long-wheelbase versions for enhanced rear comfort.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise the serene ride quality of a Mercedes S-Class, are concerned about complex technology repair costs, or seek distinctive, eye-catching styling.

Competitive Position: The BMW 7 Series (2015-2022) is a capable luxury saloon that delivers sharp handling and a slick infotainment system. However, it falls slightly short of its rivals in terms of overall refinement and presence. Whilst the Mercedes-Benz S-Class offers superior ride serenity and the Audi A8 boasts exceptional user satisfaction, the 7 Series remains a solid choice for those prioritising driving dynamics and technology. The Range Rover provides a different proposition as an SUV alternative. For buyers seeking a luxury saloon with engaging handling and excellent equipment, the 7 Series represents good value, though its rivals edge ahead in comfort and prestige.
