1 WORST And 10 BEST Things About The 2025 BMW X7

[@dwnshft]

Special thanks to our Patreons for their support of the channel! X7 or GLS?

[@Car_conversati0nz]

I used to be a GLS fan, but now I think the X7 is a little better. Still, the GLS isn’t bad for people that just want a Mercedes

[@volvoxc9086]

GLS WITHOUT A QUESTION

[@MorellaReeck]

I have one kislux bag I got in 2019, it's the LV white catogram speedy. It's counter quality and it has a nice honey patina now, so the leather is real. I think whatever makes you happy go for it. I've seen LV with plastic leather and blood red glaze...

[@JomJib9120]

I think I may go for Genesis GV80 3.5T advanced trim. Suspension and ride handling may not be upto BMW but its 95% there. And you get a lot more stuff for way less money.

[@AJ-bh7vm]

This is not in the same class as the Genesis GV80, this is a lot bigger and is a full-size SUV. The Genesis GV80 is in the same class as BMW X5, they are both midsize SUVs. This is in the same class and competes with other full-size SUVs such as the Mercedes Benz GLS.

does the wireless charger actually work on this 2025 model?

[@alansmith4395]

no

[@williamh2594]

It does NOT - unless ur intent is to cook your phone ... great car but that is a problem - also annoying - I want an odometer (without looking at the app on my phone) ... also annoying and potentially dangerous is a very quirky blind spot monitor on the passenger side - BMW will tell you its "speed related" whatever that means

Works fine on my 2020 x7

Last time I was here debating on a M340i.. ended up with one of these for wifey spec nearly Alpina it is so fun

The rear heated seats and third row climate controls and vents are all optional. It’s misleading to not mention that.

[@tuhinrahman646]

Couldn’t agree more though I have got a 40D!

[@jasongayle6463]

hey my dad wants this car is the engine is it bad for isses

[@dwnshft]

no, very reliable - i have this engine in my car and it's awesome

[@sapphyx26]

This was a good review. Thank you. Please do one for Land Rover Discovery and Range Rover L-base. and please compare them with the germans.

[@gtl1010]

What about poor AC performance the X7 has had since 2023? It does not cool in hot weather! I test drove a 2025 last week and it would not cool on a hot day. Deal breaker for me. Wouldn't that be a HUGE con?

[@reginaldopara69]

I agree. Sold mine for that reason.

[@gtl1010]

@@reginaldopara69 Thank you for sharing. That's very telling indeed.

[@brucestallings5227]

Agreed. Have one. A/C is inadequate.

[@lancefernandes9808]

Have a 2021 and have not noticed issues with the AC in Texas summers. I do have ceramic tint all around so that could be it, unless they changed something in the LCI models.

[@jasmines6380]

Oh so it wasn't just me? I just test drove one i was so in love with the car but the ac not cooling. Thank God I didn't buy it :( what do I buy now :(

[@drstevej2527]

Really? Towing? Who is towing anything in this thing? 1% of owners and .001% need to tow anything heavier.

[@davidwatt3843]

Middle row seats move forward too slow. Death trap in third row if in an accident to get out if electronic middle row moves very slowly forward.

[@hamada128]

There is a red strap to manually fold the second row seat quickly

[@moreweknow1383]

1 pound is 0.45 something kg so for 200 pounds its near 90 kg which is really not a upshift for GLS but comfort maybe a better caviar as merc is slightly better and i don't think that either has a digital rear view mirror option which is a must for 3row suv

The worst thing about my 2025 BMW X7 40i is the fact that it only has 3441 miles on it and it’s been in the shop 3 times, they’ve had it since 12 Sep and today is 14 Dec, how many days is that? Do Not buy this car.

[@corneliusbartley8020]

I have a 2025 as well with 2600 miles on it. It's running great!!! What type of problems are you having with?

[@binfordjlb]

@@corneliusbartley8020 It lost 2 quarts of oil in the first month at 1441 miles, turned it in for a week, picked it up and it lost little over a quart in two weeks, turned it in for two weeks got it back and it did the same, there's no oil on the ground anywhere I park and the engine is clean, they replaced the turbos, but it was still losing oil, I turned it in on 12 Sep and it's still in the shop, they still can't figure out where the oil is going or where it's coming from, they replaced more parts and drove it themselves for 150 miles and the same thing happened, they finally decided to replace the engine, and hopefully it'll be ready this Monday (23 Dec 24) but I'm not counting on it being fixed, right now it's been in the shop for half the time I've owned it, BMW North has been absolutely horrible during the entire situation both to me and the dealership I purchased it from,(and I mean freaking horrible) If you want to know more I'll tell you exactly how they've been horrible, they did say that this is the 1st and only time they've had this problem, but that admission doesn't do me any good at all. How in the heck can you have a car that you designed and built be in the shop for over three months in a row (almost four months combined) and not have it fixed and refuse to replace it with another vehicle of the same type, especially when as of right now, it only has 3624 miles on it and 200 of that was put on during testing?

[@binfordjlb]

@ it’s losing oil, but the engine is clean and there’s no spot on the ground, I’ve had in for repair at the dealer 3 times for a total of just under 4 months, the last time I turned it in was on 11 Sep and it’s still in the shop (over 3 months) and they hope to have it fixed by this Monday (23 Dec 24) BMW North has been absolutely horrible to me and the dealer I bought it from the entire time, the dealer told them they should replace the engine in Aug, but BMW N refused and continued to refuse until 2 weeks ago, I’ve tried to get them to replace it with a different vehicle of the same type but but they refused, I offered to buy a 60i and eat the price difference myself, I paid $94.000, they offered $74,000 to trade, this for a vehicle that has 3600 miles (170 of those put on by them during testing) that has been in the shop for half of the time I’ve owned it, they refused to transfer the extended warranty I bought without charging me a fee for doing so, so I refused. They designed and built this car, how can they possibly not have it repaired after a combined 1/3 of a calendar year?

@ you must have gotten one of the few good ones.
