Seriously though, shaping up well, I think its outline looks better than the G Class or whatever the Merc is called these days.

Therefore, getting back to the original post that sparked the debate (a very old post at that, as kozzi points out), the X7 can indeed properly be called an SUV (though, as noted previously, BMW doesn't even do that - only Jason, the author of the text in the post did, and he did so appropriately).

Could they have been smaller? Yes...but the G01 has the best Drag Coefficient in its class with a 0.29 CD. For reference, the Macan is at 0.37 CD. Couldn't get the time stamp to work. The Active Grilles start at 4:15. The X7 will most likely have the same Active Grille setup.

Unlike the camo pics of the new Mercedes GLS, at least this doesn't look like a stretched minivan. Its got nice proportions to it.

Looks to have a great amount of leaning in the corners. Hopefully they will have a fix for this before it goes on sale

Update - March 20, 2018:
The X7 prototype has dropped virtually all camouflage, save for some remaining camo wrap, giving us a very accurate look at what the production X7 will look like. Clearly visible now are the shapes of the headlights, front bumper, tail lights, rear reflectors and front fender vent.

it's a big un... but looks like it will fit into the lineup quite well.
SUV line.. X1, X2, X3, X4, X5, X6, X7 .... car line .. 1er (Certain markets) 2er , 3 , 4, 5 , 6 , 7, 8 , Keep selling SUV/SAV and don't stop using the profits from those for sports car models please. |

It's not going to be the best car BMW makes, but it's a great potential alternative to a GLS or Yukon (for those with kids and need a people hauler as the wife's DD, like myself)

Apart from the grills I don't dislike it. I have no need for one of these either. It will no doubt sell.

I've seen better looking BMWs... but if BMW needs these vehicles (X7, 2 Active Tourer, etc...) to survive in a market that's increasingly asking for those, I guess I can live with it, providing BMW keeps sports cars in its lineup
real Porsche fans never liked the Cayenne.. but it sells well more than the 911 we don't like some BMWs but they are those who sell more I just wish the grill was smaller.. it's too big :/ |
