2021 BMW X7 Trims Comparison
2021 X7 trim level differences
The 2021 BMW X7 is a seven-passenger, three-row SUV that is available in two trim levels: xDrive40i and M50i. The xDrive40i is powered by a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six cylinder engine, paired with a 48-volt mild hybrid system. Total output is 335 horsepower and 330 lb-ft of torque. The M50i uses a turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 that produces 523 hp and 553 lb-ft. Both engines are paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.
Which 2021 X7 trim does Edmunds recommend?
Consider sticking with the base X7 xDrive40i. The turbocharged six-cylinder under the hood is adequate for an SUV this size. What's more, for 2021, the X7 no longer has its midlevel trim, the xDrive50i. That means the gap between the base model and the topped-out M50i is much larger. Not too many buyers will need the performance provided by the rowdy V8 under the hood of the M50i.
