Preemptively test the BMW X7! The length of the car is close to 5 meters 2, and this 4.4T "beast" is too cool to drive

For large SUVs, most of them are business SUV models built for luxury, and this BMW X7 seems to give us another possibility, because it is not only a face-saving business car, but also for home use needs have been met. Moreover, today's protagonist is still equipped with a 4.4T engine "fierce guy", which feels really too smooth to drive.

01

Appearance: This X7 is not the other X7

Although it is a BMW X7, just by looking at its radical design style, you know that this X7 is not the other X7. That's right, because it's the highest-spec model in the BMW X7 series, the BMW X7 xDrive M50i. First of all, the color of the optional matte ash is worth 60,000 yuan. But fortunately, all M sports kits are standard, and such a livery coupled with a very sporty kit package does look like a lot of fighting.

With a length of 5163mm and a width of 2000mm and a wheelbase of 3105mm, it is indeed one of the largest SUVs in size and looks very burly. In addition, the integration of sporty elements further enhances the overall sporty attributes of its side, and it can be seen that it is equipped with 22-inch rims, Pirelli P0 tires and M sports calipers as standard. Keyless entry in terms of comfort and roof racks were also fitted.

Space: 2+2+2 seating layout

The space performance benefits from the ultra-long wheelbase of 3105mm, which allows passengers in three rows to ensure a more comfortable sitting position, and even the third row is very thoughtful in terms of comfort configuration, equipped with air conditioning outlets, overhead reading lights, cup holders and type-c interfaces for passengers to use.

04

Power: 4.4T+8AT powertrain

In terms of powertrain, the BMW X7 M50i is equipped with a 4.4T twin-turbo engine with a maximum power of 390 kW and a maximum torque of 530 N·m, which is matched by an 8-speed manual transmission. Just this data parameter can prove that it and other BMW X7 equipped with 3.0T is not a concept at all, and the fact is that the power response is so direct, the official 100 km/h acceleration of 4.7 seconds, to know what kind of cars can run into 5 seconds? Not to mention that it is also a big guy weighing 2 tons.

In standard mode, its power response is very linear, if you switch to the sport mode, it is like changing a car, completely stimulating its grumpy side, whether it is the power response or the feedback of the accelerator pedal will become more direct, at the same time you can actually hear the tempering sound of the exhaust, there is really a little bit of the taste of the performance car, plus it is a big man, really let you have a feeling of kingly landing, solipsism.

Sound insulation and noise reduction performance is also very excellent, the use of double laminated glass, basically can shield off the vast majority of external noise interference, indeed the flagship big brother in the noise suppression ability to do a very good job, worthy of a luxury SUV car, in addition, unless you are too aggressive, you can hear the engine after the speed up, and the road noise can basically be said to be absorbed by the tire more thoroughly, a small amount of noise completely does not interfere with the occupants of the car.

Steering strength is still biased towards the heavy tuning style, this so-called heaviness is actually a sense of stability, so that the driver's steering direction becomes clearer and more accurate, although there is nothing impeccable in the sense of control, but there is a point to share with you, that is, after all, this car is 2 meters wide, so the larger size for its steering radius is still somewhat large, so when making a U-turn, if it is a two-way single lane, it is difficult to turn a wheel, this point, for the old driver when I did not say, but for the new driver, It's bound to be two more kneading.

Chassis suspension, this car is equipped with air suspension as standard, of course, if you have more pockets, you can also choose a more advanced magic carpet intelligent air suspension like this test drive, which can be adaptively adjusted according to different road conditions, and indeed it will be a higher level in comfort, but as far as ordinary air suspension is concerned, when walking some undulating roads or potholes, the vibration filtration effect transmitted from the road surface is already very good, and the car can hardly feel any bumpy feeling, if you want to pursue a sense of quality, Then I think the magic carpet smart air suspension will be more suitable for you.

Performance testing

Accelerated Testing:

0-100km/h acceleration time: 4.9 seconds

The acceleration test adopts the conventional ejection starting mode, and adjusts the car to the sport mode and closes the body stabilization system, the starting speed control releases the brake pedal at 2000 rpm, and fully presses the accelerator pedal, the wheel does not have any slippage phenomenon, the head-up inhibition ability is very strong, the overall attitude remains very stable, and the final 4.9 seconds to break the hundred Measured Results, which is more consistent with the official data.

Brake test:

Braking distance 100-0km/h: 36.05 m

The braking force performance is relatively excellent, due to the light weight of the body preparation, after pressing the brake pedal at full strength, the body posture remains very stable, the front suspension is tight enough, and there is no top-heavy feeling, and the final measured braking distance is 36.05 meters, and the performance in this level is still very good.

Noise test:

NVH quiet performance compared to the previous generation of models has been significantly improved, engine idle sound in the car sensory performance will be quieter, measured data idle state of 37.5dB, 60km/h 56.7dB, 80km/h 63.5dB, 120km/h 68.9dB.

Edit the summary

To be honest, this BMW X7 M50i counts the point of optional parts, landing nearly 2 million yuan, it is certain that it is indeed not our working class people can consume up, it must be those bosses or business elite dishes, and it can compete with the Mercedes-Benz GLS, Cayenne and other high-end luxury SUVs, to say that luxury is indeed better than the Big Ben, Cayenne, to say that the power, the opponent also has AMG and RS series, so if you are a BMW powder or just not bad money, Then this car is really too suitable for you, but if you don't have so many money on hand and like it, I think the 3.0T BMW X7 is more suitable for you.
