2021 BMW X7 | CAR MOM TOUR

As someone who spends an embarrassing amount of time watching car reviews online, I’ll say that yours are among my favorites! I’m not even a parent haha.

[@StephanieHW1]

One of the best features of this car is the mini ‘tailgate’ in the trunk. When we were potty training, we kept a child potty in the trunk. Any time there was an emergency we could pull over and have her use the potty in the back with the tailgate up for privacy (2004 Range Rover). Tip: for easy cleanup we lined the bottom of the potty with a diaper, and could just roll it up and dispose of it right away.

[@henryjiang7271]

It truly is a terrific SUV. My mom has one (2020). I love driving it when I have the chance. Highly recommend it to everyone

[@ShujaKidwaiMasauliwala]

Just the way a car review should be done for us commoners. Thank you for capturing it all and delivering it raw. That's how I like it. This is truly a first impression and it captures it all very well. Kudos to you!!

[@davidcarroll8735]

This is by far my favorite X7 review! Avoids the pretentious aura that usually accompanies BMW and tells the real story. I also like how you show the configuration on the websites at the end of each video. Keep up the good work. Subscribed.

[@TheCarMom]

Appreciate the kind words and support!!

[@amyrolsky2348]

FYI you can tilt the second down with car seats in outbound seats with the bench option. The teathers are placed differently on captains chairs vs bench. You can fit 3 across on the second row but can’t tilt with 3 across because the car seats slightly overlap and it won’t tilt.

[@youareloved11]

Which car seats are you using that fit 3 across?

My X7 comes with bench seat. It drives very nice. The air suspension is so much more comfortable than my Model Y. If you have two kids, the X7 will work just fine. If you are parent of 3 or more kids, look elsewhere.

[@DevoteddreamerD]

I have spent a scary amount of time watching car reviews and this is by far my favourite. I am a parent of 3 kids and own a 2020 BMW X7 and agree with every single point you made. I totally feel like a badass driving it BUT.... when you have 3 or more kids, with 2 or more in car seats - and your kids are screaming, going nuts in the back, kicking your seat, knocking down the iPads, slinging arms at each other etc.... the "badass" feeling quickly goes away. We can't even do a small Costco run with the 3rd row up and for travel we had to buy the BMW Thule carrier to put on the racks. This vehicle doesn't quite cut it for larger families. I am hesitant to go to a larger SUV like a Navigator or Escalade but I wonder if ample space and overall the kids happiness aka parents keeping their sanity is more important than the amazing drive this gives you and "cool" factor.... hmm.... tough one.

[@taylortwinsandpreslie8662]

I am the same! Watching 383373 trillion car videos. I'm a mom of 3 who are aging out of car seats. I've got a 2015 Escalade ESV and just do not see how anyone with 3 kids can drive a smaller vehicle. Plenty of trunk space, good ventilation in the back 2 rows, plenty of space for all 3 kids. I've had this vehicle since my twins were in the womb and I just love it. What I'd love to have is a "watermelon catcher". I look like Spider-Man when I open the trunk after a grocery haul. I've gotten to where I know how to pack it so nothing falls but you never know. 😅

[@nabman7425]

I will add to your awesome review that by voice control you can open the sunshade on the sunroof and side ones! You can also ask BMW by voice control to open or close the windows! Another point is the you don’t need to close the lower tailgate door manually; rather pus the close putt on in the upper tailgate door and it will close both! Thanks

[@sharontavana587]

Your observations on the controls for 2nd and 3rd row are exactly right and it doesn’t really get any easier the longer you own it. I enjoy the vehicle, but everything is not as user friendly as it could be.

[@shelbyz88]

Great review! And this coming from a BMW salesman. Great to see from a mom’s perspective especially having 2 under 5. Could you also do a review of the MB GLS 450?

[@CaptainDawg02]

YES! Such a great review that highlighted a major, major flaw of this vehicle. This was the car who was so highly rated, but by non-parents. This is a complete embarrassment of a 3rd row vehicle for people who actually need it (aka parents). The captains chairs provide no room to walk between even for kids, and the seats take 3 minutes to go forward and back...yeah, find me a 5 year old who is willing to do that. We ended up buying the Mercedes GLS450 with captains chairs and called it a day. It pains me because I loved driving the BMW, but it made no sense for parents to ever buy this vehicle.

[@zakenannie]

Hi!! I'm in between this and the GLS are you happy with your gls???

[@jessicabexley1770]

Can you review the Mercedes GLS with captains chairs? Love these reviews!

When you put the push chair in the back, both doors are electric for closing via buttons or swiping your foot.

[@laurac9320]

Food for thought after watching several of your videos....it would be cool in your description or videos to add graphics for your main go-tos (car seats, cupholders, trunk space, leg room, console). You could use baby bottles or Starbucks drinks instead of stars. Ex: for cup holders I give this car 4/5 starbucks lattes :)

[@tcaver]

I have an x2 and love it but yes the beauty mirrors are so small lol! Love the sun shade feature. Only thing I don’t like about bmws is that you have to spend double to have the best features 😢. Sport mode is amazing. X7 may have sport + mode which is even better. I don’t like the tethering for my daughters booster hook. The boosters don’t have a super long strap so now I have to get another booster and I liked my diono 😡. Maybe for this would’ve been good to have a bmw genius yes they have geniuses who know the whole tech and how to work it.

Great review , Any plans to review the GLS 450 for comparison ?

[@memocardenas9535]

FAVORITE REVIEW SO FAR 😍

[@Jason-zc9on]

The x7 second row bench seats can lift/ hinge forward (just not captain chairs). However the back hinges slightly forward first before tilting, , so I don’t know if that configuration is compatible with car seats (Atlas, Pathfinder, grand Cherokee L, etc). No one at dealerships has been helpful and it’s been hard to get an answer. If The_Car_Mom ever tests the GLS, it has the same hinge mechanism for accessing the third row, and I’d love to hear her thoughts on this! I really wanted an X7 (and could afford it) but opted for the Telluride. Nothing else in the class drives like it, but I didn’t think the practicality was there with little kids in car seats. The X7 second row didn’t seem as big as I would expect (I’m only 5’10), the 3rd row didn’t seem as roomy as others, plus trunk space behind it is too small (maybe fit 3 roll on suitcases?). If my parents are visiting, we can take a trip in the telluride and fit 5 roll-ons or some large double deck wheel bags behind the 3rd row. I wanted the x7 but the Telluride just made too much sense
