The German automaker has introduced their biggest SUV, the 2019 BMW X7 in the UAE and boy it looks majestic. The slim design is augmented by a spacious interior with unparalleled comfort. We recently got a chance to test drive this three-seater SUV, and below is our brief review.
The highly ambitious, highly powered 2019 BMW X7 gives you two engine choices; a turbocharged 3.0L inline-6 cylinder and a turbocharged 4.4L V8. Both engines are paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The V8 will be able to generate a whopping 456 hp and 479 pound-feet of torque and enable the SUV to reach 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds.
There is a statement of uniqueness about it thanks to the power steering, power windows, keyless entry, push engine start-stop button, leather seats, four-zone climate control, iDrive, LED headlights, wireless charging, and electrically adjustable third-row seating. You can have three seats in the middle row, but if you really want to enjoy your journeys, you can opt for two-seat “captain’s chair” configuration.
Those who love to go offroad here can order the X7 with the xOff-road package. It will add selectable off-road driving modes and alters the ride height, acceleration and transmission response, and traction control system.
The safety is ensured through the front, side, knee and curtain airbags, traction control, stability control, brake assist, tire pressure monitor, ABS as well as by autonomous cruise control and collision detection with braking intervention.
The price starts at AED 496,000. To know more about the 2019 BMW X7, check our video review.
