2 Answers
The BMW X7 is produced at the BMW Spartanburg plant in South Carolina, USA. More information about the BMW X7 is as follows: 1. The BMW X7 is a large SUV under the BMW brand, with a wheelbase of 3105 mm and dimensions of 5163*2000*1835 mm in length, width, and height. 2. The BMW X7 is equipped with two engines: a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine and a 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine. The 3.0-liter turbocharged engine delivers 340 horsepower and a maximum torque of 450 Nm, with peak power output between 5500 and 6500 rpm and maximum torque available from 1500 to 5200 rpm. The 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine produces 530 horsepower and a maximum torque of 750 Nm, achieving peak power between 5500 and 6000 rpm and maximum torque from 1800 to 4600 rpm.
Last time I accompanied a friend to pick up an X7 in Spartanburg, South Carolina—that factory was truly impressive! BMW has located its most important SUV production lines in the U.S., assembling everything from the X3 to the X7 there. The Germans are quite clever, leveraging the region's cheap electricity and port advantages to manufacture and ship globally right after completion. As I watched workers install the V8 engine, it struck me—though this car bears a "Made in USA" label, its drive shaft comes from BMW's Dingolfing plant in Germany, and the infotainment system was calibrated at Munich headquarters. It's practically a global hybrid. But in terms of complete vehicle production, the Spartanburg plant churns out 450,000 units annually. Today, one out of every three BMW SUVs on the road rolls out from that tropical rainforest climate zone.
