BMW has a reputation for producing top-of-the-line luxury vehicles, and the 2023 BMW X7 is no exception. Rated one of the best three-row SUVs of the year, this BMW has many impressive features, from the engine range to the driving experience. Check out some of the best features of this upscale SUV today.

One of the best things about the X7 is that the interior is fully sound-proofed. Drivers will be able to enjoy a smooth, quiet ride thanks to the sound-dampening features, soft suspension, and flexible powertrain. Some of the best standard features for each trim level include power-adjusting seats, four-zone climate control, heated front seats, and a panoramic sunroof. Some premium packages also have Vernasca leather upholstery and soft-close doors.

Powertrains

The X7 has a variety of powertrain upgrades. Starting with the xDrive40i, the turbocharged engine has six cylinders that can reach up to 375 horsepower with around 400 pound-feet of torque. The V-8 model is the standout this year, with upgrades to the twin-turbo 48-volt hybrid powertrain. The highest trim is the Alpina XB7, which has a total horsepower of 630.

Fuel Economy

Like many other automakers, BMW is trying to prioritize better fuel economy. The most efficient X7 model is the xDrive40i, which gets 21 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway. Other powertrains take up more energy, which somewhat reduces the fuel economy, but even the M60i model has a combined fuel economy of 23 mpg.

Infotainment

BMW is always ready to stand out when it comes to infotainment systems. This year, the infotainment system features a massive 14.9-inch touchscreen with a glass panel. The system can be operated with a touchscreen, although drivers can also adjust interior settings with the center console and gesture controls.

As for Wi-Fi connectivity, drivers can subscribe to a personal hotspot and opt into the BMW Digital Key, which allows drivers to control most vehicle functions with an app. The audio system for the 2023 X7 features top-line Harmon/Kardon stereo speakers.

Driver Assist

As a luxury brand, it comes as no surprise that BMW is committed to including a wide range of driver-assist features in every X7 model. Some of the features that are standard to this SUV include automated emergency braking, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, and forward-collision warning. There may be other more advanced features drivers can opt for, as well.

For luxury SUVs, nothing can beat the 2023 X7 in this vehicle class. From the completely soundproof interior to the high-performance powertrains, this SUV has plenty of elegance to offer. Stop by BMW of Tuscaloosa today to get a closer look at the X7.
