Let’s talk about courage,
and why we need it more than ever.
Courage is independent and disruptive.
Courage questions, shatters and awakens.
We need bold, courageous voices.
All of us.
We need fresh thinkers with optimism.
Daring dreamers who don’t accept
“No” for an answer.
We believe in the frontrunners.
The intellectual elite, the avantgarde.
Those who fight stagnation and backwardness.
Well, courage only knows forward.
Driving the pioneers of our culture
to inspire tomorrow.
To create a sublime kind of new.
Reaching a superior level of excellence.
This is where
a new kind of luxury is born,
in brave ideas, in the confidence
to speak out loud.
Even if nobody asks for it.

“LUXURY MUST
AROUSE EMOTIONS.”
Searching and finding modern
perfection: Adrian van Hooydonk,
chief designer at the BMW Group, on
the new appearance in the segment
of the most exclusive vehicles.
The models under the name
Bayerische Motoren Werke open up
a new world within the BMW
portfolio. What is your idea of
contemporary luxury?
We do not want to tell our customers how they should define luxury for
themselves, but just want to make
an attractive, diverse offer. The
perception of luxury is very different
worldwide. But a central aspect that
becomes visible everywhere is the
increasing significance of personal
time. It is becoming the most
valuable asset in a globalised world.
How is the wish for perfection and
refinement expressed in mobility?
In today’s mobile world, we spend
more and more time in various
modes of transport. Cars are now
like personal rooms on wheels. One
wants to feel completely comfortable in them. A steering wheel that
you touch, the materials that
surround you have to feel perfect
and the eye does not want to be
disturbed by unclean lines or
individual components. The interior
of a vehicle is seen as a living space.
It is about being surrounded by the
highest possible sensuous quality.
What is the biggest challenge in the
external appearance?
Luxury must be reflected to the
outside world in a matter-of-fact
way. In English there is a beautiful
term for it: sophistication. For
designers – our team has more than
700 employees at four locations
worldwide, who are encouraged
through constant competition with
each other in terms of ideas – this
means that every detail counts. The
design has to arouse strong
emotions while expressing the
highest quality and durability at the
same time. In order to be able to
spend every moment intensely, full
of meaning and beauty. Therefore,
we are building a luxury ecosystem,
a model family. In various forms of
expression: contemporary saloons,
elegant and very sporty coupés, but
also vehicles that offer very
luxurious space.
In the new designs, a common
factor is noticeable: the reduction of
lines. Do you want to increase luxury
by making luxury less apparent in
the design?
In this way, the design becomes
clearer, more modern and more
emotional. An expressive surface
play is in the foreground, and the
dynamics are emphasised even
more than before by the vehicle
body. The few but very precise
vehicle lines underline the graphic
design of the surfaces. The vehicle
body looks more powerful, refined
and luscious with the lavish
surfaces without losing the
sportiness that is typical to BMW.
This is possible only because we
work out every feature of a vehicle
individually. For a BMW, one
should be able to identify at first
glance what kind of experience
one would have with it. Especially
in our large and particularly
luxurious vehicles, we attach great
importance to a marked appearance and the maximum possible
feel-good factor in the interior. It’s
about freedom – and the feeling of
being at home in a BMW.
EXTERIOR DESIGN
22
23
Great personalities are characterised by a striking look. The
dynamically contoured, hexagonal full-LED headlights with adaptive
bend lighting lend the BMW X7 unique expressiveness. Visually
highlighted by blue accent clasps and the “BMW Laser” lettering,
the BMW Laserlight1 provides additional driving comfort with a
range of up to 600 m in high beam mode.
Overwhelming presence, precise simplicity and
discreet glamour. With its symphony of shapes,
surfaces and lines, the exterior design of the BMW X7
is a work of art that combines confidence, superiority
and sheer presence with sporty elegance. With its
imposing upright silhouette, the front already sets
an example of power and dominance that can hardly
be tamed. The heart is the large, opulent kidney
grille. A play of striking lines and generous surfaces
characterises the athletic, modern side view just as
much as refined design elements. And the rear also
shows determination and superiority. With the first
BMW X7, a spectacular appearance always succeeds.
THE SUMP GUARD INTEGRATED INTO THE FRONT APRON IS
DESIGNED IN ALUMINIUM SATINATED¹⋅² AND AT THE SAME TIME
LOOKS LUXURIOUS AND FUNCTIONAL.
A STATEMENT THAT ATTRACTS
EVERYONE’S ATTENTION: THE LARGE,
UPRIGHT BMW KIDNEY GRILLE.
The large, emphatically vertical kidney grille forms the heart
of the impressive front design. Its massive presence stands
in charming contrast to the very slim front headlights. Both
kidney grille elements are connected to form a monolithic
unit – the largest double kidney grille in the BMW range.

GLOSS-LATHED EYE-CATCHING MAGNET:
THE ELEGANT WHEEL DESIGN.
At 21 inches, the light alloy wheels Y-spoke style 753 are among
the largest wheels in the portfolio and thus radiate an unmistakable
presence in the side perspective. In Bi-colour Orbit Grey and
gloss-lathed, they look particularly noble.

JACEK FRÖHLICH,
HEAD OF TOP-CLASS DESIGN, BMW
HADI TEHERANI
ARCHITECT AND DESIGNER
ON THE ART OF SHOWING TRUE GREATNESS.
A CONVERSATION ABOUT LUXURY, SPACE FEELING AND THE FIRST BMW X7 – WITH THE
HEAD OF TOP-CLASS DESIGN AT BMW JACEK FRÖHLICH AND STAR ARCHITECT HADI TEHERANI.
Mr. Fröhlich, mr. Teherani,
how is exciting design created?
How can spaciousness be staged that looks
elegant and sophisticated at the same time?
Fröhlich: The proportions play a very
important role – in design there must always
be the question of how the bigger picture fits
together, how everything is perfectly
coordinated. Only then do the lines and
materials that give the vehicle its form and
character traits such as dynamism, tranquillity,
casualness or luxury come into play.
Teherani: Just as a philosopher expresses
himself through words and writing, we can
do this through spaces. Quite an extreme
example: When you enter a cathedral,the
height and size of the room suggest
something. The individual should feel small
and be impressed by the omnipotence.
Teherani: To make a room work, you
have to stage it. And here we have many
possibilities to say what we want to express.
As an architect, for example, I choose a
vehicle according to how the model affects
me from the inside. I need to feel
comfortable and have an overview of the
bigger picture.
EUROPEAN MODEL SHOWN
Fröhlich: In automotive design, this is a fine
line, because we naturally want to create
something new and exciting. We want to
arouse enthusiasm. And size is an important
factor here. The real art is to never make the
mistake of promising more from the outside
than we can deliver in the interior. If you take
a look at the BMW X7, you can see a high
driver’s cab on the outside, which suggests
an extraordinary amount of space inside. A
promise we’ll keep.
Teherani: And then it’s the details that
make a large room seem really pleasant. You
can direct things the way you need them
through proportions and details.
What should people feel when they enter
the BMW X7?
Is it easier to design something very big or
something small?
Teherani: Depending on the design, a room
like a car can embrace or reject you. And when
you’re in a vehicle, you want to feel safe.
Fröhlich: As an automotive designer, I am
confronted with the challenge that everything
always changes proportionally – apart from
people. The challenge is therefore always to
give a specific space the right impetus. The
requirements for the design process are
independent of the size – but a larger space
offers more possibilities. For the designer. And
finally for the customer.
Fröhlich: I find spaciousness itself fascinating.
The interior of the BMW X7, for example, is
not only tailored to the driver, but also offers
undreamt-of space for all occupants, and this
space is intended to arouse certain emotions
through its aesthetics and equipment. In the
interior, we enclose the passengers by running
a continuous line from front to back. This gives
the occupants the feeling of being embraced,
which is very evident in the cockpit, for
example. And that creates a feeling of freedom
and security at the same time.
Teherani: In architecture, we say: Space is
luxury. The larger the room, the more luxury is
possible. You might get by with less space, but
generosity is a beautiful feeling that we can
create with our work. It's a desirable form of
luxury.
Teherani: It is very similar in architecture. Of
course, we are working with extremely large
dimensions when, for example, we develop a
train station that is 700 metres long. The
attraction, however, always lies in finding a
solution at that moment – no matter whether
you are designing something small or
something very big.

MORE ROOM FOR PERFECTION:
A BRIEF LOOK AT THE FUTURE OF
PERFECT TRAVEL – IN THE BMW X7.
Luxury knows no boundaries. But it is only when travelling that
it becomes apparent whether luxury concepts meet their high
standards. The most important parameters for travellers have
always remained the same: maximum intimacy, effortless comfort
and groundbreaking speed. A journey is only perceived as a
pleasure when it is fast, pleasant, every moment is special – and
a maximum of private space is available. This basic principle runs
through the history of demanding travel, from luxury trains and
yachts to private jets and spacious cars. Speed is increasingly
smartly influenced by autonomous systems, while privacy
and comfort are becoming increasingly important in the art of
pleasurable travel. The overall result: We experience new,
perfectly shaped ways in vehicle construction.
In terms of exterior perception, the BMW X7 does what many
supposed luxury concepts fail to do: Distinction through presence.
The largest kidney grille in the range makes a statement. The
interior opens up completely new perspectives, and the combination
of refinement and comfort becomes a unique selling point.
Excellence meets generosity, experienced through enormous leg
and headroom and a unique space offer, with space for up to
six seats guarantee even more privacy on two individual comfort
seats in the second row.
And they enable completely new perspectives – from the starry
sky of the Sky Lounge1 to the Panorama glass roof, which creates
a feeling of space flooded with light that jet manufacturers can only
dream of. Because the most important thing when travelling – and
this is often forgotten – is neither arriving nor the way. It is the
awareness that you never have to limit yourself in your perception.
This is the true luxury of travelling.
The happiness of perfect comfort makes every moment and
every longer journey special. The equipment makes the
difference. A Bowers & Wilkins Diamond surround sound system1
with 20 speakers creates a 3D sound experience that delivers its
full resonance even in large spaces. In the interior, a finely tuned
ambient light creates its own atmosphere while the Rear-seat
entertainment Professional with two 10.2" displays allows the rear
passengers to watch films independently of each other or offers
the charming idea of e.g. sharing a blockbuster in theatre mode
with the next seat neighbour. That is distinction par excellence.
Luxury standards are shifting, and completely new comfort zones
are being discovered.
STRIVING
FOR EXCELLENCE.
The BMW X7 allows a fresh look while being on the move.
And sets a new standard for luxury. Namely, the question
whether every single moment is really a pleasure. Without
making a difference whether the pleasure comes from the
experience of the surroundings – or from the comfort inside
the vehicle. We discover the maximum appreciation of the
moment. And a new form of travel.

The luxury of space and freedom: In the BMW X7,
every journey is a moving moment – even when
stationary. Be it the refined cockpit, the individual
seats in the second row or the comfortable third row,
which can be steered like a functional ballet – you
always have the best seat. Like a piece of jewellery,
precious materials lie on sophisticated sculptural
forms and crown the interior. Combined with an
infinite amount of space, the interior is the soul of
the unique work of art that is the BMW X7.
ALWAYS THE BEST SEATS: TWO INDIVIDUAL
SEATS IN THE SECOND ROW OF SEATS.
Six seats – and each one is the best place: If you choose the
6-seater configuration of the first BMW X7, you will find two
individual comfort seats in the second row. This allows you to
enjoy numerous advantages: The two seats offer two travellers
not only the greatest possible privacy, but also maximum
seating comfort: Lean back on the comfort cushion in the
headrest, place your arm on the armrest in the middle and let
the landscape pass by. An additional plus: The two individual
seats make access to the third row of seats even quicker and
more comfortable – for maximum flexibility in every situation.
In the BMW X7 you will always be sitting in the best seats.

THE DYNAMIC INTERIOR LIGHTING.
POLISHED HAUTE COUTURE:
THE GLASS APPLICATION ‘CRAFTED CLARITY’.
The dynamic interior lighting immerses the interior in an
unparalleled atmosphere that combines the best of ambient,
indirect lighting with highlights. Numerous LEDs and optical
fibres can be controlled in several adjustable colours. When
entering and exiting or during events such as a telephone call,
preconfigured, dynamic lighting effects create an eye-catching
visual experience through the harmonious interaction of all
lighting elements.
The hand-crafted glass applications are an experience for the
hands and the eyes: They set high-quality highlights on selected
control elements such as the gear selector, the Start-Stop button,
the iDrive Controller or the volume control, which further add to
the already noble ambience.

DRIVING COMFORT

A driving experience in a BMW is always extraordinary –
and the first BMW X7 sets a new standard for this:
Equally comfortable, fascinatingly luxurious and
excitingly dynamic, this is an impressive example of
what happens when technological visions become
reality.
JUST THE RIGHT LEVEL:
THE ADAPTIVE 2-AXLE AIR SUSPENSION.
Unsurpassed comfort with maximum dynamics – the Adaptive
2-axle air suspension including the adaptively controlled
shock absorber system combines both. Like a conductor, the air
suspension keeps the vehicle at a constant height regardless
of the load. The vehicle automatically lowers at higher speeds,
reducing drag and fuel consumption. Be it lowering for more
driving dynamics or an elevation for off-road use – by means of a
toggle switch in the centre console, five different height levels can
be conveniently selected within an adjustment range of 80 mm.
The intelligent assistants of BMW Personal CoPilot
are available for every vehicle of the Bayerische
Motoren Werke. These support you in all driving
situations and increase safety and comfort. In this
way, you ensure that you can look forward in a
relaxed manner and devote yourself to the most
important thing: sheer driving pleasure. Today,
tomorrow and also in the future: The driver assistance
systems in a vehicle from the Bayerische Motoren
Werke define what is technically feasible – and as
a reliable companion, ensure that you master every
challenge with confidence.
FOUR WORLDS, NO COMPROMISES:
THE xOFFROAD PACKAGE.
BACKWARDS AS EASY AS FORWARDS:
THE REVERSING ASSISTANT.
Be it a driveway or a mountain pass: Reversing can sometimes
become a real challenge. Here it’s reassuring to have an allknowing
assistant with you. The Reversing Assistant relieves you of this
unpleasant task: It stores the last 50 m of the driven path when
driving up to 35 km/h. If you want to reverse, it takes over the
steering and you can fully concentrate on monitoring the vehicle
surroundings. Even narrow or winding roads and parking or
manoeuvring situations lose their horror.

No matter what terrain – the xOffroad package enables
maximum traction and absolute safety on all roads. It is operated
conveniently via the xOffroad Driving Experience Control and
allows the selection between the modes xSand, xRocks, xGravel
and xSnow. Depending on the selected surface, the transmission
characteristics are adapted and, together with the mechanical
differential lock, ensure uniquely superior and controlled handling
even on challenging terrain. A specific display in the instrument
cluster and in the Control Display provides additional information,
and a sump guard at the front ensures the necessary functionality.
The xOffroad package therefore combines design, form and
functionality in a special way so that every voyage of discovery
is both safe and uniquely exciting.

Warming coffee or refreshing water – those on the move will
always enjoy their drinks at the right temperature in the first
BMW X7. No matter how you like your drink: The temperaturecontrolled cupholders always serve you the right temperature.
They can be cooled or heated separately at the touch of a button.
The coloured ambient light also indicates at first glance whether
the drinks are being cooled or warmed by means of a noblelooking illumination in red or blue inside the cupholders. So
the last sip remains as good as the first even while travelling.
WELL THOUGHT-OUT RIGHT TO THE END:
THE AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING WITH
5-ZONE CONTROL.
Too cold! No, too hot! Do you recognise it? When different people
are sitting in a vehicle, their ideas about what temperature feels
comfortable can be quite different. But thanks to the automatic air
conditioning with 5-zone control, the first BMW X7 is a dream car
for every climate. Both the driver and front passenger areas, the left
and right sides of the second row of seats and the third row of seats
can be tempered according to the respective preferences. Whether
pleasantly warm, refreshingly cool or individually in-between – here
everyone can find their own comfortable temperature and, thanks
to the separate operating option for each area, can also control it
themselves.

THE EXPRESSION OF PERSONALITY.
The BMW X7 already leaves nothing to be desired in the standard equipment. BMW Individual
takes you one step further: Even more extraordinary, even more exclusive – the possibilities
of BMW Individual are limitless. Whether you choose from particularly high-quality equipment
options for the exterior and interior or fulfil your very own dream of your individual BMW X7 –
with BMW Individual you have every option open to you. Let yourself be inspired!
For its interior trims, BMW Individual does not only limit itself to the most
sophisticated woods from all over the world, it has also perfected their
processing. Uncompromising precision during the production process is
paramount. Like the BMW Individual fine-wood trim Ash Grain Silver Grey
high-gloss it begins with cutting the selected pieces into the desired shapes.
These become the actual interior trims, which, during countless process
steps, are then sanded, varnished and polished, until their surface, grain
structure and hues meet the stringent requirements of BMW Individual.
The BMW Individual extended leather upholstery ‘Merino’ in Coffee illustrates
the claim to excellence of BMW Individual: Only premium quality leather
without any surface defects is used, which is not subjected to any artificial
embossing or surface treatment during the production process after an
elaborate dyeing through barrel pigmentation.
Let yourself be inspired: This artistic design shows an exclusive selection of the material diversity
of BMW Individual for the first BMW X7.

The EC unladen weight refers to a vehicle with standard equipment and does not include any optional extras. The unladen weight includes a 90% full tank and a driver weight of 75 kg.
Optional equipment may affect the weight of the vehicle, the payload and the top speed if the selected equipment has an impact on the vehicle’s aerodynamics.
The actual total weight of the trailer must not exceed the maximum trailer load, taking into account the maximum tow bar download.
Electronically limited.
Performance data of petrol engines apply to vehicles using RON 98 fuel. Fuel consumption data apply to vehicles using reference fuels in accordance with EU Regulation 2007/715.
Unleaded RON 91 and higher with a maximum ethanol content of 10% (E10) may also be used. BMW recommends RON 95 super unleaded petrol.
The data for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and energy consumption are determined in accordance with the measurements processes as defined by European Regulation (EU) 2007/715
in the applicable version. Data refer to a vehicle with base-level equipment in Germany, and the ranges account for differences according to the selected wheel and tyre size and the optional
equipment and may change during the configuration process. Figures have been determined on the basis of the new WLTP test cycle and have been converted back into NEDC figures for
comparability. [For these vehicles, values other than those specified here may apply for the assessment of taxes and other vehicle-related charges that are (also) based on CO2 emissions.]
Provisional figures; any missing figures were unavailable at the time of publication.
