2026 BMW X7 SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2026 BMW X7 is a seven-passenger three-row SUV offered in two trim levels: xDrive40i and M60i. BMW also offers an Alpina XB7 version of the X7 that delivers enhanced performance and luxury, and which we review separately on Edmunds. Powering the xDrive40i is a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine with 375 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque. The M60i comes with a turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 rated at 523 hp and 553 lb-ft. Both engines send power through an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. Keep reading for our rundown of the X7's key standard features and options.

M60i
Along with its more powerful engine, the M60i adds:

  • 22-inch wheels
  • M Sport brakes
  • M Sport differential (torque-biasing rear differential that can send more torque to the outside wheel while cornering for improved handling)

  • Harman Kardon audio system

Most of the M60i's upgrades are available on the xDrive40i as optional equipment. Other key options or packages for the X7 include:

Which X7 trim does Edmunds recommend?

Unless you really need your three-row SUV to hit 60 mph in the 4-second range, we think the xDrive40i is the X7 to buy. It offers plenty of power, achieves completely reasonable fuel economy, and can be configured with many of the features you get in the M60i trim as options.
