Overview

Written by automotive expert Christian Wardlaw

Updated: 11/8/2026

Based on BMW's full-size luxury sedan, the i7 looks just like a 7 Series, inside and out. If not for the i7 badges and other small details, you might be hard-pressed to tell the difference. Underneath the sheetmetal and cabin, the i7 is something else entirely, equipped with a single-motor rear-wheel drive or a dual-motor all-wheel-drive electric powertrain offering up to 314 miles of range. A technological tour de force, the BMW i7 is swift, silent and decadently sumptuous.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Brian Wong

Very Good

7.6

out of 10

We drove the 2025 BMW i7 on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Driving experience

9.1/10

How does the BMW i7 drive? The i7 is quick for its size and, more crucially, weight. In our testing, it leapt from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.3 seconds, lagging behind rivals like the Mercedes-AMG EQS sedan and Tesla Model S Plaid but with more than enough power for daily driving. The standard auto-leveling air suspension delivers surprising agility and grip, along with astounding ride quality.

The suspension can pair with an optional road-scanning system that adjusts the suspension in real time to better handle upcoming bumps or potholes. The regenerative braking is equally impressive and smoothly transitions to conventional brakes as needed. The i7 is simply one of the best-riding and quietest cars we've tested, Mercedes S-Class included.

The large windows offer good visibility in most directions. The narrower rear window is the exception (it's blocked entirely when the optional 31-inch theater screen is lowered). Fortunately, the i7's many camera views make maneuvering in tight spaces easy. BMW's standard Highway Assistant feature allows hands-free driving at up to 85 mph and works as advertised. It keeps the i7 well centered in its lane while slowing and accelerating smoothly.

Comfort

8.9/10

How comfortable is the BMW i7? The i7's luxury experience starts with how you enter the sedan. The optional Executive package includes automatic doors that open with a press of a button from inside or out. Once in the driver's seat, pressing the brake makes the door shut soft and slowly, introducing new avenues of laziness.

Once inside, it's easy to find a perfect driving position. The front and rear seats are remarkably comfortable, and abundant interior room means even 6-foot-6 passengers won't feel cramped in either row. The climate system heats and cools the cabin quickly, although some of our editors felt the air vents didn't offer enough air flow relative to fan speed. There are multiple options to split temperature and fan speed to different parts of the cabin.

Installing child safety seats in the i7 can be tough. The lower anchors are easy to access, with a leather flap that lifts to expose anchor points. Getting to the top LATCH anchors is cumbersome, though, and requires reaching around the tall and wide headrests.

In-cabin tech

9.7/10

How’s the tech? The 14.9-inch touchscreen cants slightly toward the driver, making it easier to reach — a necessity given its width. There's also a central dial controller if you can't make the stretch. The system has a steep learning curve and can be tricky to set up, but the excellent voice recognition system can control many functions without needing to do a deeper dive.

Each rear door has a small touchscreen that controls various functions, including seat adjustments and heating/cooling/massaging functions. There's also an optional 31-inch drop-down display with 8K resolution, which makes for a unique party trick. The Amazon Fire-based system requires a data plan for streaming. It also includes an HDMI port for connecting a game console or laptop.

Storage & cargo

5.1/10

How’s storage and cargo? The i7's trunk is slightly smaller than the trunk of its gas-powered counterpart (by about 1.5 cubic feet), but it's still ample enough for a few pieces of luggage or golf clubs. Notably, there's no extra underfloor storage or front trunk like many other EVs offer.

Interior storage is less impressive. A tiny center console bin and small door bins leave little room for small items, and there's no good place to store anything larger than a smartphone. Larger items will have to find space under seats or on the floor or in the glovebox where they can't be easily reached.

Value

6.7/10

Is the BMW i7 a good value? It's hard to consider something a good value at these prices. But in the case of the 7 Series, we think you get your money's worth. The flagship sedan's cabin quality lives up to the price tag, and it's available with features like the theater screen that you won't find anywhere else. Be wary of options, though, since they can make the price rise in a hurry.

BMW's warranty is comparable to the coverage of most luxury brands. Basic coverage lasts for four years/50,000 miles, and the battery warranty runs eight years/100,000 miles. BMW provides complimentary maintenance for three years/36,000 miles, which is a plus, and three years of 3,000 kWh of free fast charging (30-minute sessions at a time) on Electrify America's charging network.

Range/Efficiency/Charging

6.4/10

How are the range and efficiency? [Editor's note: The following range numbers are for a 2023 i7.] Our i7 test vehicle came with 21-inch wheels, the largest offered for the sedan. So equipped, the i7 gets an EPA-estimated range of 308 miles (versus 318 miles with 19-inch wheels). It exceeded that estimate in the Edmunds EV Range Test, covering 320 miles, but trails the Mercedes EQS variants we've tested, including the AMG version.

We noted a consumption rate of 35.5 kWh of electricity for every 100 miles of driving, similar to what we've measured from other high-end EV luxury sedans. The i7's architecture allows for fast charging at up to 195 kW. That's comparable to what the Mercedes EQS is capable of but not as good as the Audi e-tron GT, Lucid Air or Porsche Taycan.

X factor

7/10

In looks and design, the 7 Series suffers. It looks overly beefy in a weird way, with a strangely high beltline and awkward proportions. But once those automatic doors open and you slide inside, you thankfully can't see the exterior. Instead you're enveloped by a high-class interior with enough leather to cover the inside of a private jet.

On top of that, the i7, unlike other large sedans, is great from behind the wheel. The ride quality is unimpeachable and the electric drivetrain generates more than enough easily controllable power. The big battery mounted below the floor also helps the i7 deliver better balance and handling than you'd ever expect.

Buying Tips for the 2025 BMW i7 for November

New 2025 BMW i7 inventory is effectively gone, so skip the new-car hunt and focus on used examples instead.

There are 31 used i7s listed nationwide, which is far more practical than chasing the 0 new vehicles left in stock. The eDrive50 has the most used supply, while the M70 looks scarcest.
Used i7 pricing starts around $64,800 nationwide. That gives you a huge entry point below the model’s original six-figure MSRP, and the used eDrive50 starts at about $64,200.
If you still find a leftover new one, know that recent transaction prices were about $15,100 below MSRP on average, and there are no general customer cash rebates to stack on top. But with new supply basically nonexistent, your best leverage is comparing multiple used listings and moving fast on a clean example.

2025 BMW i7 trim level differences

The 2025 BMW i7 is a full-size electric luxury sedan offering 268 to 314 miles of range, depending on the model. Three versions are available, including the eDrive50, xDrive60 and M70 xDrive. Compare the 2025 BMW i7 trim levels in-depth.

Which i7 trim does Edmunds recommend?

Because the thrillingly quick M70 xDrive costs significantly more than its siblings, we recommend the eDrive50 or xDrive60, depending on whether you want all-wheel drive. Several of the M70's features are available on them, and you can add plenty of luxury to either one.

Competitors to consider

Within the luxury electric vehicle segment, the BMW i7 is one of four sedans offering high-end luxury, performance and prestige. The sturdy i7 looks nothing like its rivals, which include the elegant Lucid Air, curvaceous Mercedes-Benz EQS and timeless Tesla Model S. Each one has its pros and cons, and since we rank specific versions of the BMW, Lucid and Tesla more or less evenly, choosing between them is a matter of personal preference. Be sure to check out our Expert Rating of the BMW i7 to learn more about this electric car.

Edmunds spotlight: High-tech highlights

As one of BMW's flagship vehicles, the i7 offers plenty of technology. The features you expect to find in a six-figure luxury sedan are present and accounted for but with special twists. For example, the panoramic sunroof has LED Sky Lounge lighting, and beneath the BMW Curved Display, the dashboard has a touch-sensing strip of illuminated glass. Rear passengers can enjoy the optional 31-inch BMW theater screen boasting 5G connectivity, 8K resolution, and Amazon Fire TV integration. Other upgrades include Highway Assistant for hands-free driving at speeds up to 85 mph, a Remote Control Parking system that operates through a smartphone app, and an anti-theft recorder that captures video inside and around the car if the alarm triggers.

2023 BMW i7 xDrive60 4dr Sedan AWD (electric DD)

Drives really well and cabin is super quiet with very little wheel noise transfer. Cabin has too much led glitz like the Mercedes EQS. LED screen is ok but no comparison in size to Tesla. A larger size screen is really more functional especially for driving directions using Google or Apple Maps. The built in moonroof is better than having an all glass roof that cannot shield you from …
