BMW X7 (2018-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Luxurious and spacious cabin	Cumbersome size is a burden on narrow country roads
Rapid performance, whichever engine you choose	Very expensive to run
Optional captain's chairs are wonderfully comfortable	The Audi Q7 and BMW X5 are better value, and roomy enough for most needs

Quick Summary

The BMW X7 (2018-present) is BMW's largest and most luxurious SUV, offering three rows of seats with genuine space for seven adults. Revealed in 2018 with UK sales commencing in April 2019, the X7 received an extensive facelift for the 2023 model year, making it a viable rival for the new Range Rover. The cabin is beautifully appointed with superb finishes and lashings of leather throughout. With optional captain's chairs in the middle row and a spacious boot, the X7 provides exceptional practicality for those needing genuine seven-seat capability.

Performance is impressive across the range, from the sensible xDrive 40d diesel achieving 34.9-36.2mpg to the rapid M50i petrol with 530bhp and a 0-62mph time of 4.7 seconds. Air suspension delivers an extremely comfortable ride, though the X7's considerable bulk makes it challenging on narrow country roads. Running costs are substantial, with insurance in group 50 of 50 and fuel consumption ranging from 21.7-22.1mpg for the M50i. The xDrive 40d represents the most sensible choice, balancing performance with reasonable economy and lower running costs than the 'M' variants.

Best for: Buyers seeking genuine seven-seat luxury, those prioritising spacious interiors and comfort over economy, and drivers with long motorway journeys.

Not ideal for: Budget-conscious buyers, those concerned about running costs, drivers navigating narrow country roads frequently, or those who only occasionally need a third row of seats.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the X7 if: You need genuine seven-seat luxury, prioritise spacious interiors and comfort, and undertake regular long-distance motorway journeys.

Consider alternatives if: You are budget-conscious, concerned about running costs, frequently navigate narrow country roads, or only occasionally require a third row of seats.

Competitive Position: The BMW X7 (2018-present) is a formidable luxury SUV, though it faces stiff competition from the Volvo XC90, Mercedes-Benz GLS, and Range Rover, all of which achieve higher overall CarGurus ratings. Whilst the X7 excels in performance and cabin luxury, rivals offer better value propositions and user satisfaction. The X7's considerable size makes it less practical for UK roads than smaller alternatives like the BMW X5 or Audi Q7, which provide ample space with greater manoeuvrability and lower running costs. For those genuinely needing seven-seat capability and willing to accept substantial running costs, the X7 delivers limo-like luxury and impressive performance, particularly with the xDrive 40d engine.
