The model
Read full BMW X7 reviewThe BMW X7 is everything a big luxury SUV should be. It's supremely comfortable and quiet on the road, and its huge interior is as practical as it is sumptuous. Its style and sheer scale give it an element of theatre and desirability few rivals can match. We recommend the xDrive40i petrol engine and M Sport trim with – if you can stretch to it – the Ultimate Pack.
The trim
See full equipmentThe M60i stands as a trim level in its own right, adding a limited-slip differential and active anti-roll bars. Only available with a 4.4-litre V8 petrol engine, so it's quick but expensive to buy and run.
The engine
See full engine specsThis range-topping V8 offers seriously rapid acceleration (0-62mph in 4.7 seconds) and a great soundtrack. It's hardly the sensible choice, though.
