Күн бұрын

The 2023 BMW i7 xDrive60 ($194,200 as specced in Canada, $151,600 in the US) is the fully electric variant of the brand new 7 series lineup. Aiming to be a supremely luxurious and tech’d out experience, the new 7 series is available with a massive 31 inch entertainment screen for the rear passengers. Coupled with the optional Bowers & Wilkins surround sound system, the i7 could be mistaken for a portable movie theater.
It also boasts a commendable 536 horsepower and 549 lb ft of torque from a dual motor setup, and has rear-wheel steering to boot. But does the level of luxury and tech match the hefty price tag? And how does it compare to its competition? Thomas and James share their thoughts! We hope you enjoy the episode! Thanks for watching. SUBSCRIBE!

I think the new 7-Series fits better in a dystopian cyberpunk action film than real life but to be fair, we're probably going to end up living in a dystopian cyberpunk action film within the next one or two decades so I can't blame them for cutting out the middle man going straight for the 2077 neomilitaristic aesthetic

As a BMW technician who did the PDI for an ICE version of this car, I can attest to the automatic doors being highly unpredictable. I messed with them for 5 minutes and couldn't figure it out. The inside buttons work fine, but I never even got the outside buttons to open the door all the way. Wasn't able to read the manual, though. That's in a sealed bag for the customer to open, but I wouldn't be surprised if it just said, "see dealer."

I was a big-time critic of this vehicle a few months ago, but then I went to buy a new S class and the dealership happened to have a new 760i in stock. I compared the two and fell in love with the 760i. It made the S class feel like a little old ladies' car. The exterior looks mean and sporty which I just love. The interior though is so plush, well thought out and superbly designed. I bought the 760i. My only real complaints are: 1. The dropdown TV. Though I love it, I hate not seeing out of the review while it's down. I feel like when the TV is being used, the rear camera needs to come on so that the driver can easily see what's going on behind him/her. 2. The air vents. Though I like the clean lines on the dash, I miss not feeling the intense blowing of the air vents. Living in South Texas, it gets quite hot during the summer. Sometimes you really want to feel the air blowing on you and hard. It does still cool the car but personally, I would prefer bigger air vents. All in all, this is the best car I've ever owned.

Your discussion on perception of EV drivetrains and luxury cars, with traditional association of ICE engines was very insightful. With such a drastic change in powertrains, we have to reexamine our preconceived notions and pay attention to previous biases. Additionally, I fully agree with your definition of luxury, but I also understand others may define luxury as access to a lot of technology above all. Others want the smell of rich mahogany and bourbon. But for me, it's ease of use with quite and comfort. Literally relaxes me when I get in. Thanks for the nuanced and insightful review

It gives me the impression that people who do car interiors these days have never actually driven a car before, so they throw all kinds of tech in hopes that something would suit the customer's needs.

@@taher2124 rolls Royce is jam packed with tech. Their flag bearer feature has sensors that analyze the road and dynamically adjust the suspension in real time for one, their dampers have dampers. Everything in a rolls is power operated. A lot of tech went into the suspension and chassis tuning. After all rolls royces aren't exactly reliable with the main culprit unsurprisingly being, electronic failures. Lexus on the other hand doesn't go overboard with tech, but their sales with more premium models have been abysmal compared to other rivals like BMW and Mercedes, the bulk of Lexus sales come from their compact entry level vehicles where customers can pass up on some of the features. But in a luxury car, a lot of buyers want the conveniences that come with the tech.

@@taher2124 keep in mind, the point of a luxury car is technology and convenience to make you more comfortable. I'm not denying that long term reliability is a grey area. If reliability is your concern then don't focus on the luxury segment. It's like wanting a fuel efficient car while shopping for a supercar or a muscle car (there are options, but your pickings are slim).

If you have $150,000 to spend on a car. You have $500-$2,000 to put a L2 EVSE somewhere on your estate. The lack of proper DCFC in your town is definitely a bummer, but that's a location specific issue which should be noted as an infrastructure problem that will improve as some of the 100s-of-thousands of your fellow city dwellers get EVs. FWIW, charging at home is how you get to "wow, this is way better than ICE" so it's easy to understand why it doesn't appeal, when you don't have L2 charging at home. Seems like a justified business expense to drop the $$ to have one installed.
