The BMW X7 was launched in 2019, and as one of the few 7-seater models in the BMW family, its practical functionality has been recognized by many users. As the flagship SUV model, its power, chassis and equipment are also top-notch, which can bring users a luxurious experience. Recently, BMW announced the official map of the X7 mid-term redesign, compared with the current model, the new car has a large upgrade in appearance and interior, let's take a look.
The front face is still the familiar large-sized "double kidney" grille, the size has not increased, but a row of wicks has been added inside, and the two sides of the daytime lights form a wrap-around light strip, and the recognition at night is greatly improved. The headlamp has changed significantly, adopting the popular split layout, without BMW's iconic "angel eye", it can also be regarded as a self-breakthrough. Above is the dual L-shaped LED daytime running lights, below is the near and far integrated laser headlights. The lower grille not only has a three-dimensional bottom lip, but also an exaggerated sports kit is added on both sides, which is obviously an aerodynamic optimization.
The side changes little, the short front overhang is the classic BMW ratio, the wheelbase is very full, the body size is huge, the length, width and height are 5162/2000/1819mm, the wheelbase is 3105mm, the size is basically the same as the current model, but the height is reduced by 16mm. For the first time, the new car uses 23-inch wheels, which is the largest bmw's production model, and the style is relatively new.
The tail is also basically unchanged, but the outside of the LED taillight has been added with a 3D three-dimensional decoration with diamond checkered pattern, and the two sides of the taillight are still connected by chrome decorative strips. The bottom is still a bilateral double exhaust layout, and the silver bottom guard plate and the quadrangular nozzle have not changed.
The change in power is the addition of a 48V system to the existing one, which significantly increases power and potentially reduces fuel consumption. The xDrive 40i model is equipped with a 3.0T V6 engine + 48V light mixing system, the maximum power is 279kW (380Ps), the maximum torque is 540Nm, compared with the current model, 29kW (40Ps) and 90Nm, the increase is not small, 0-100km/h acceleration time is 5.8 seconds, 0.3 seconds higher than the current model, M50i xDrive model is equipped with 4.4T V8 engine + 48V light mix system, The maximum power is 390 kW (530Ps), the maximum torque is 750 Nm, and the acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h is 4.7 seconds, which are consistent with the current model. The match is still an 8AT transmission, with electronically controlled shock absorbers and adaptive gas springs as standard. The M50i xDrive has a rear axle limited slip differential and optional active steering.
Kandi Comments:
As long as a model reaches the expected sales volume, the mid-term modification symbolically makes a "face change" action can pass. However, the BMW X7 mid-term modification and upgrade is still quite real, and the cost of changing headlamps is much higher than changing the bumper. The new human-computer interaction system is also fashionable and avant-garde, and the flatness and luxury of the carriage have been improved. The most gratifying thing is that the 3.0T engine has increased a lot of power after adding a 48V system, and the fuel consumption may be reduced, killing two birds with one stone.
