2024 BMW I7 XDRIVE60 | WHEN THE BACK SEATS BEAT THE FRONT

EV Channels Review

The 2024 BMW i7 xDrive60 is presented as the pinnacle of electrified executive sedans, a vehicle where the rear passenger experience arguably surpasses the front. The reviewer is overwhelmingly impressed by the interior, highlighting its luxurious materials, advanced technology like the 31-inch theater screen, and the exceptional comfort of the rear seats, which are described as feeling like a couch. The sound system, particularly the 4D bass experience, is noted as a standout, though the reviewer found its intensity a bit much. While the exterior design is acknowledged as polarizing, the reviewer personally finds it imposing and likes the split headlight design. The driving experience is characterized by smooth, effortless power delivery and a remarkably quiet, comfortable ride, prioritizing comfort over outright sportiness, which is typical for a vehicle of this size and segment. However, the reviewer points out that the infotainment system can be overwhelming with too many options and that certain features, like the automatic parking, are not as refined as in some competitors. Despite these minor criticisms, the i7 xDrive60 is lauded as a marvelous, technologically advanced, and incredibly comfortable vehicle that redefines luxury in the EV space.
