BMW's upper range X-class, i.e. the X5, X6 and An important part of sales. It is logical that BMW keeps that line up to date and is now offering a far-reaching customization package for the X7.
Far-reaching, so much more than just a new face. But it is inevitable that it is mainly the front that catches the eye. With its split headlight units, the new front is completely in line with the fresh 7 Series. The enormous grille, the lines that apparently all start from the centrally placed BMW logo: it all tells that behind that snout is a serious power plant. In the case of the test car, the M60i, this concerns the worldly, once again improved, 4,4 V8, with a duo of turbos that in this new X7 receives assistance from the mild-hybrid 48 Volt electrical system. It makes the car more efficient on paper, and perhaps also in practice, but it is clear that this powertrain makes the X7 a particularly powerful SUV. A mighty 530 hp and an equally awesome 750 Nm of torque give the M logo the right value. This X7 M60i is convincingly fast and looks particularly powerful with M decoration. A car that does not receive major sales in the Netherlands with its unkindly punishing BPM fine by The Hague. Especially because you will soon be able to purchase an innovative new SUV from BMW, with more power, a more modern appearance and a more refined driving experience: yes, the BMW XM. Because the It makes the XM less expensive than this X7 M60i.
“An awesome 530 hp and an equally awesome 750 Nm of torque give the M logo the right value. This X7 M60i is convincingly fast and with M decoration it certainly looks particularly powerful.”
Anyway, this X7 can do very little about that. BMW has provided the seven-seater X7 with more innovations than just the nose and the drivetrain. In America, a car like the X7 is often seen as a family car, after all, it can accommodate half a football team. They all have a view of the newly designed dashboard, which is equipped with the same enormous multidisplay as we know from the iX and the new 7 Series. Nicely readable, easy to operate, using your voice, touchscreen or the central button as we have come to expect from BMW for years. You sit in the front on improved furniture, the materials that make up the interior are of better quality and while driving, especially if you sit down for a while, you experience more precisely tuned steering. It feels almost unimaginable: how BMW always manages to provide such an excellent chassis tuning, with beautifully balanced steering, in an anything but light car. It is doubtful whether every driver will make frequent use of the potential that the X7 M60i offers to really drive over wildly winding curved roads with giant steps. But here too, the following applies: you don't have to do something often to know that it is possible.
This article is from MASTERS MAGAZINE. The winter issue of MASTERS was created in collaboration with Jordi van den Bussche. Many will know him as YouTuber Kwebbelkop, but he has been working hard as an entrepreneur for some time, as he explains in the Great Interview. What is new is that his company JVDB Studios offers to do social media marketing and short format content marketing for other companies. “They can also figure it out themselves, but we cracked the code.” Jordi gives a platform to like-minded entrepreneurs such as Jay-Jay Boske, Demy de Zeeuw, Chahid Charrak and Marcella de Bie, and discusses developments surrounding games, crypto and NFT: “Just as bitcoin turned the financial system upside down, will that also happen with gaming.” This extra thick winter issue also focuses on Lengers' first own ship, an interview with Corendon CEO Atilay Uslu, specials about the new BMW 7 Series and Samsung foldables, and - exclusively for MASTERS! – an interview with Max Verstappen.
