Julien Sarreméjean with the 2022 facelift by Anders Thøgersen, The BMW X7 is a full-sized luxury sport utility vehicle and is the largest and second most expensive of BMWs SUV line up. Production of the X7 started in 2018 at the BMW US Manufacturing Company plant in Greer, South Carolina, the X7 is built on the same BMW CLAR platform as the G05 X5, however the X7 is taller and wider plus it has been stretched for increased cargo space and third row seating which is optional and designed mainly for children. Unlike the X5 it uses all-wheel drive (xDrive) drivetrain for all models. The G07 features a self-levelling air suspension system, with a double-wishbone front suspension and multi-link rear suspension.

n April 2022, BMW unveiled a new revised X7, which entered production in July and was launched the following month. The design is very similar to the original first generation design, with minimal changes to the side profile and rear. The major changes are a heavily revised front end design premiering new horizontally split headlights and a revised curved widescreen focused dashboard
