2022 BMW 7 Series M760i xDrive

MSRP Range: $157,800 ^{Price range reflects Base MSRP for various trim levels, not including options or fees.}

BMW 7 Series 750i xDrive Sedan Exterior. European Long Wheel Base Shown.

The BMW 750i offers astonishing power and an elite level of comfort. It neatly straddles the line between luxury and ultra-luxury with advanced technology and exceptional cabin comfort. Handling isn't its strongest suit, and its bold new exterior design — specifically the grille — might be an acquired taste, but there's no mistaking this for anything other than a sleek executive interstate missile.

Overview

The BMW 7 Series has been the flagship sedan of the brand for decades. It fits in the lineup above the 5 Series and alongside the 8 Series Gran Coupe. While the nomenclature makes it seem like the 8 Series Gran Coupe is a step up, it is slightly smaller and has less room inside than the 7 Series and doesn't offer an optional V12 engine. In 2020, the BMW 7 Series received a significant styling and features update and it heads into 2022 with no changes.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2022 BMW 7 Series M760i xDrive 4dr Sedan AWD (6.6L 12cyl Turbo 8A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.93 per gallon for premium unleaded in Virginia.}

This 7 Series is one of Edmunds' top-ranked large luxury sedans. It is loaded with all the latest technology BMW has to offer and is impressively spacious and comfortable. If you're looking for alternatives, the 7 Series competes with the Audi A8, Genesis G90, Mercedes-Benz S Class and Porsche Panamera. All of these vehicles represent the pinnacle of their respective brand's luxury and technology.

Overall, we're impressed with the 7 Series' strong engines, technology and roomy cabin. Take a look at our detailed Expert Rating to learn more about why we rank it so highly.

Rated for you by America's best test team.

Performance

8.5/10

How does the 7 Series drive? There's an astonishing amount of power and acceleration here. Right when you think you're really hauling, the 750i has another gear that vaults it into triple digits with ease. This car is built for the autobahn after all. It's a shame it'll only ever use a fraction of its power on American highways. The big sedan brakes with similar power and consistency, arrow-straight and free of drama during panic-stop tests.

Gear changes are seamless, and the steering is nicely weighted at highway speeds and properly assisted in parking lots. Handling is a mixed bag. It's laser-quick to turn into a corner, but the loads of body roll amazingly never seem to affect the car's stability. It feels floppy but holds its line.

Comfort

9.0/10

How comfortable is the 7 Series? It's a big car with a big cabin that's nearly impervious to any sound or feeling that would indicate there's a world outside the windows. "Bank vault-quiet" is an overused descriptor, but from one of the cars that coined that cliche, it's true here. You'd need to drive over an open manhole to feel something resembling a sharp impact. The adaptive suspension possesses a nearly impeccable ability to absorb and separate the regular road rash of daily life from the passengers.

The seats are exceptionally comfortable, with loads of adjustability and quick heating and cooling, although our rear passengers weren't as impressed with the massage function. This experience is world-class luxury cruising all day.

Build & price

Interior

8.5/10

How’s the interior? The wide door openings, low side sills and massive rear legroom make entering and exiting the 7 Series as easy as moving from the living room sofa. A broad range of seat adjustments and a power-telescoping steering wheel help dial in a comfortable driving position that allows a commanding forward view. The bulky rear pillars restrict the view out the back, although there's enough side glass to inform safe lane changes. The excellent backup camera also takes the edge off.

The 7 Series is listed as a five-passenger sedan, but its middle seat isn't really suited to adults. It's useful in a pinch but don't count on it, especially for an adult. Control buttons, switches and knobs are still among the best and most intuitive in the business.

Technology

8.5/10

How’s the tech? This new 7 Series received subtle upgrades from the former model, but its tech and driver assistance features represent its largest leap. The latest voice assistant, summoned by a "Hey, BMW" wake-up phrase, can set navigation points and control cabin temps in a conversational style. And the new gauge cluster boasts sharp graphics and customizable data screens, such as inset navigation display, freeing up the center console display for other duties. The optional Bowers & Wilkins system is exceptional and probably the most affordable way to own a Bowers & Wilkins system.

The semi-automated driving features are a boon for commuters, although the lane keeping assist makes pretty aggressive steering corrections even when you are paying attention.

Storage

7.5/10

How’s the storage? With 18.2 cubic feet of trunk space, the 750i holds its own with its Mercedes S-Class rival and ranks a few cubes higher than its Audi and Lexus competitors. But the storage space is more deep than wide, the side panels intrude and the floor isn't flat. You'll find it's better suited to stowing items lengthwise. Still, the opening is wide, so you won't have much trouble getting luggage into the trunk.

There's plenty of room inside the cabin for personal items, although your drinks will be limited to a pair of cupholders front and rear. Child seat attachments aren't the easiest to access. They're hidden behind zippered flaps, and you'll need to fish your child seat anchors around to locate the attachment points.

Fuel Economy

7.5/10

How’s the fuel economy? Our test car had an EPA estimate of 20 mpg combined but came in at 18.9 mpg over the course of about 750 miles of driving. It did a little better on our 115-mile mixed-driving evaluation loop, returning 19.1 mpg. Dipping into the car's prodigious power will deliver fuel economy not far above single digits.

Value

8.0/10

Is the 7 Series a good value? At just a hair more than $126,000 as tested, calling the 750i a poor man's Rolls-Royce is a bit ironic. But it's not a stretch either. It has astonishing power, excellent build quality, exceptional big-car cruising comfort, and a corporate lineage with Rolls-Royce (Rolls is part of the BMW Group) that makes this statement not without some accuracy.

This new 7 Series is maybe one of the best values around since it straddles the line between luxe and uber-luxe comfort and convenience. The warranty coverage is fairly standard, but the ownership experience is commensurate with the price tag, with BMW offering 24-hour roadside assistance for four years with unlimited mileage.

Wildcard

8.5/10

In the past decade, the 7 Series has increasingly moved away from its roots as a big performance sedan to something more like an executive cruise missile. That's fine with us since there are plenty of smaller sedans that pack a satisfying blend of performance and luxury (BMW's own 5 Series, for example). So while the 7 Series lacks razor-sharp handling and firm body control, it's still a stunningly fun car to drive simply by dipping into its gas pedal on a wide-open road.

Its styling — that larger kidney grille design is downright comical — is a tad too bold and aggressive for our tastes, but we're sure many will like it. There's no doubt that it will not be mistaken for anything other than a BMW.

Which 7 Series does Edmunds recommend?

The 2022 7 Series is available in a variety of trims and configurations. While the base 740i and its turbocharged inline-six offer solid performance and plenty of features, we think it's worth stepping up to the V8-powered 750i xDrive for the additional performance, useful head-up display and standard all-wheel drive.

BMW 7 Series models

The 2021 BMW 7 Series is available in five trim levels: 740i, 740i xDrive, 750i xDrive, 745e xDrive and M760i xDrive. The major difference between the trims comes down to the engine and the presence or not of all-wheel drive (called xDrive), though some features and options further separate the trims.

740i and 740i xDrive
The base 740i is powered by a 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine (335 hp, 331 lb-ft) and sends power to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission. The 740i xDrive is the same but with all-wheel drive. Standard feature highlights for both models include:

Adaptive air suspension
LED headlights
16-speaker Harman Kardon audio system
Digital instrument cluster
10.25-inch infotainment screen with navigation
Apple CarPlay smartphone integration (late availability for Android Auto)
Heated front seats, armrests and steering wheel
16-way power-adjustable front seats
Keyless entry and ignition
Four-zone automatic climate control
Power-sliding panoramic glass roof

The 7 Series also comes with:

Parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of or behind the vehicle when parking)
Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the 7 Series and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
Blind-spot monitoring (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)
Lane departure warning (warns you of a lane departure when a turn signal isn't used and can automatically steer to maintain lane position)
Forward collision mitigation (applies the brakes automatically to stop the vehicle to avoid or minimize a collision)

745e xDrive
This is the plug-in hybrid 7 Series variant. It pairs a turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine with an electric motor and battery pack for a combined 389 hp. It also improves fuel economy and offers an estimated 16 miles of all-electric driving. Features mirror those on the 740i xDrive, including all-wheel drive, although the 745e xDrive has unique interior accents.

750i xDrive
The 750i xDrive has a more powerful turbocharged V8 (523 hp, 553 lb-ft) and standard all-wheel drive. It has everything on the 740i plus:

Head-up display
Premium leather upholstery

M760i xDrive
The M760i xDrive is the range-topping model. It's powered by a turbocharged 6.6-liter V12 (601 hp, 627 lb-ft) and all-wheel drive comes standard. The M760i xDrive is loaded with features, including:

20-inch wheels with performance tires
Faux suede headliner
Laminated glass for a quieter interior
Massaging, heated and ventilated front seats
Power-adjustable, heated rear seats

Optional packages
The 7 Series is available with a number of option packages that bundle additional features together.

Autobahn package

Rear-wheel steering for better handling and a tighter turning circle
Upgraded adaptive suspension that preemptively adjusts to match road conditions

Driving Assistance Professional package

Adaptive cruise control with enhanced highway driving aids
Improved lane keeping assist system

Luxury Rear Seating package

Power-adjustable, ventilated rear seats
Massaging rear seats
Rear-mounted tablet for control media and more

5/5 stars, My 4th and probably last 7 series

GW, 06/08/2023

M760i xDrive 4dr Sedan AWD (6.6L 12cyl Turbo 8A)

No other car in my life has evoked so much emotion in me. This is my fourth 7 and first 760. I absolutely love this car and I will keep it as long as possible because I sadly very much dislike the new 7. The last M760 is a monster. The V12 is so smooth and has such a wonderful throttle response. I cannot believe how fast this large heavy sedan is. And the luxury and comfort in the rear …

BMW 7 Series vs. Mercedes-Benz S-Class

The Mercedes-Benz S-Class has long been the benchmark for the large luxury sedan class of vehicles. It's loaded with Mercedes' most cutting-edge tech and driver aids, although what's available in the BMW is generally comparable. The S-Class offers nearly identical passenger and cargo space as the 7 Series, though you should expect to pay slightly more for the Benz. The S-Class was redesigned for 2021, so it is the newer of the two, if that's a deciding factor. You really can't go wrong with either car.

Compare BMW 7 Series & Mercedes-Benz S-Class features

BMW 7 Series vs. Audi A8

The Audi A8 has a comfortable ride, a handsome and well-crafted interior, and surprisingly engaging handling, though we think the ride quality is a bit too soft at high speeds and too bumpy around town. It also lacks the 7 Series' diverse engine lineup and falls short of the BMW in interior and cargo space.

Compare BMW 7 Series & Audi A8 features

BMW 7 Series vs. Porsche Panamera

If you want some driving excitement with your large luxury sedan, the Porsche Panamera is the hands-down favorite. The Panamera offers a wide array of engines, including a twin-turbocharged V8 plug-in hybrid model. You'll need to sacrifice some interior space compared to the 7 Series, but the standard hatchback and available wagon variant translate to a ton of cargo space. The Panamera does lack some of the 7 Series' standard features, and options can quickly send the price much higher than what you'll shell out for the BMW.
