FEATURES
The BMW X7 may have been fashionably late to the full-size luxury SUV party—it first went on sale in 2019—but it didn’t waste any time snagging a spot on the VIP list. While its lavish interior, standard air-ride suspension, and list of standard equipment expertly fulfill their assignments, it’s the sharp handling and roster of robust engine choices that elevate the X7 above its competition. The base engine is a sweetly smooth 375-hp turbocharged straight-six, but a 523-hp turbocharged V8 is on deck for buyers seeking more urgency; big spenders with a need for speed can opt for the exclusive Alpina XB7 trim and its 630-hp twin-turbo V-8. All-wheel drive is standard across the lineup. While power is clearly not in short supply, cargo space and third-row legroom are, as the X7 trails competitors like the Cadillac Escaladeand Jeep Grand Wagoneer in both. But that’s of little concern from the first two rows, where the X7’s smooth ride, top-tier materials, and tasteful design conspire to coddle the occupants on trips of any length. Though its squint-eyed front-end remains a point of contention, its approximately $83k starting price seems like a relative bargain in a class where both XXL dimensions and MSRPs are the rule. – Car and Driver
