Comparatively, in the new 7 series, you get premium look and feel anywhere you sit, perhaps more so in the back.
Regarding second row seating, my wife's highlander has better, larger and comfier captain seats. So not sure if this will sell all that great depending on what this type of buyer is looking for but if you are some exec who likes to be driven by a driver, x7 is not for you.

The 3-row "Luxury SUV" competition is:
Mercedes GLS
Lincoln Navigator
Cadillac Escalade
There are others but those are the main competition with 3 rows. The highlander is not a competitor by any stretch of the imagination regardless of it's "better, larger and comfier captain seats".
