BMW X7
Following last year’s refresh that brought a larger front grille and split headlights, the X7 returns with few notable changes for 2024. Two turbocharged engines with mild hybrid technology are available: 375 horsepower for the xDrive40i and 523 horsepower for the M60i. Curiously, there is no X7 M. Instead, BMW has teamed up with German tuner Alpina to bring back the 630-horsepower XB7 after a one-year hiatus. No matter which one you choose, look for good times behind the wheel.
