How many seats does the BMW X7 have?
2 Answers
BMW X7 is available in 6-seat and 7-seat configurations (depending on whether independent seats are chosen for the second row). In terms of body dimensions, the BMW X7 measures 5151mm in length, 2000mm in width, and 1805mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3105mm. The BMW X7 is a full-size SUV model, equipped with two engine options: a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine and a 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged engine. The BMW X7 features the iconic kidney grille, giving it high recognition. The waistline, which starts from the front fender and extends diagonally upward to the taillights, is similar to most BMW models.
I've driven the BMW X7 several times and found its seating layout quite family-friendly. The standard configuration offers seven seats, with spacious and comfortable front row seating for two, decent space in the middle row's three seats, and the rear two seats working well for kids on short trips. I remember during our last family beach outing, folding down the third row created enough trunk space for surfboards and a barbecue grill – highly practical. Compared to the Mercedes GLS, the X7 has slightly less rear space, but handles more nimbly with no sluggishness on city street turns. Some owners might opt for the six-seat version featuring second-row captain's chairs and a walk-through aisle, though sacrificing one seat reduces some convenience. Based on my experience, the seven-seat version suffices for daily commutes or road trips, with reasonable maintenance costs and minimal seat upkeep concerns. Overall, if you regularly transport family or friends, the X7's seven-seat design delivers trustworthy safety and hassle-free usability.
