What's New for the 2026 BMW X7?

The 2026 BMW X7 continues to set the benchmark for full-size luxury SUVs, combining bold design with performance and premium comfort. Ideal for families and professionals across Fairfax and Northern Virginia, this three-row SUV delivers spacious seating for up to seven passengers without compromising on power or luxury. New for the 2026 model year, BMW has removed gesture control from the infotainment system and discontinued the Ametrin Red Metallic paint color. Otherwise, the X7 remains largely unchanged from the 2025 model, preserving the upscale finishes, smooth performance, and advanced technology that Fairfax drivers have come to expect.

How Does the 2026 BMW X7 Perform on Virginia Roads?

Performance is a hallmark of the BMW X7, and drivers in the Fairfax area will enjoy the dynamic powertrain options available in both the xDrive40i and M60i trims. The xDrive40i features a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine delivering 375 horsepower. It's paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and BMW's xDrive all-wheel drive system, offering smooth, confident handling on I-66, the George Washington Parkway, or winding roads near Great Falls. A self-leveling air suspension ensures a refined and balanced ride across Northern Virginia terrain.

For those seeking more power, the M60i offers a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine that generates 523 horsepower. While it uses the same transmission and drivetrain setup, the M60i is enhanced with performance upgrades like sport brakes, rear-wheel steering, and a sport differential—perfect for spirited driving or weekend escapes beyond the Beltway.

What Exterior Features Help the 2026 BMW X7 Stand Out?

The 2026 BMW X7 commands attention from every angle. Its bold, upright stance is anchored by a modern illuminated kidney grille, complemented by sleek LED headlights and boomerang-style front accents. Side profile sculpting and dark lower accents give the SUV a contemporary yet authoritative look that fits in whether you're pulling into a Tysons Corner valet or heading out for a drive along Skyline Drive.

Additional exterior features include available 23-inch alloy wheels for a more aggressive stance, a dual-section power tailgate for added utility, flush roof rails, and aerodynamic styling for a sleek, premium finish.

Together, these design elements reinforce the X7's place at the top of the luxury SUV segment.

What Interior Features and Trim Options Are Offered?

Inside the 2026 BMW X7, luxury meets versatility. Every detail has been designed with the modern Fairfax driver in mind. The xDrive40i trim comes loaded with multi-contour heated front seats, heated armrests, a heated steering wheel, synthetic leather upholstery, four-zone automatic climate control, a panoramic sunroof, forward collision mitigation, a 14.9-inch touchscreen display, and wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™.

Stepping up to the M60i adds another layer of refinement, including genuine leather seating, soft-close doors, a Harman Kardon surround sound system, a surround-view camera system, and BMW's Highway Driving Assist. Additional comforts include a five-zone climate control system, massaging front seats, and climate-controlled cup holders—perfect for year-round luxury in the DMV climate.
