2024 BMW X7: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The 2024 BMW X7 is a light-update year, not a redesign. Its main changes are newly offered options, led by Highway Assistant and upgraded smartphone-controlled parking.
About the 2024 BMW X7
1st generation X7 (G07, 2019-2026), second year after the 2023 mid-cycle refresh.
BMW positions the X7 as its largest and most family-friendly SUV: a three-row luxury model that delivers real long-distance comfort, a high-tech cabin, and more agile road manners than most full-size rivals. The brand’s messaging leans on space, premium finishes, and strong engines, but also on the idea that this big SUV still drives like a BMW. That balance of roomy practicality, luxury atmosphere, and sharper handling is what sets the X7 apart from truck-based competitors.
The xDrive40i is the polished core model, pairing seven-seat comfort with a 375-hp mild-hybrid six-cylinder engine, air suspension, and a large curved display. The M60i adds a 523-hp mild-hybrid V8 and sportier chassis tuning, while the ALPINA XB7 combines an ALPINA-tuned V8 with exclusive cabin materials and comfort-focused performance hardware.

2024 BMW X7 Reviews
What owners are saying about the 2024 BMW X7.
“Very nice ride- 2 MAJOR ISSUES-- the alarm when you lock the car-- it is so loud and offensive- it disturbs everyone within a large radius. THIS needs to be fixed. Other issue-- SO DUMB- Who took away the nice knob on the gear shifter? It is a major BUMMER- impacts EVERY RIDE. I can get a safe comfortable ride elsewhere. There is not a satisfying thing to hold onto...”
“That it's the best SUV owned to date and it's higher quality than the full sized Range Rover. BMW designed and produced a true gem with the X7. Truly.”
