BMW X7

THE NEW X7 IS THE FIRST-EVER SUPER-LUXURY SUV FROM BMW and is available in petrol and diesel, both priced at Rs 98.9 lakh (ex-showroom).

There is a considerable gap between where the X5 seven-seater ends and the X7 begins. Built on the Cluster Architecture (CLAR), the new X7 takes the luxury SUV to a higher plane; literally. It gets a massive front grille with undeniable road presence, measuring over five metres long and two metres wide. Adaptive air suspension all-round makes for among the best dynamic ride characteristics in the segment.

Inside, the cabin features plush and elegant elements, with BMW Live Cockpit Professional taking centre stage. The large screens provide access to every bit of requisite information. The Parking Assistant Plus features a rear-view camera as well as top view, panorama view, and 3D view. The highlight, though, is the seating. The second-row bench can be had as two individual seats with space between them. The third-row seats comfortably accommodate adults and are easily opened or folded down as needed. The two-part tail-gate and panoramic sunroof are also part of the standard kit.
