I recently got a BMW i7 and I'm really impressed. It's a great car, even the base model. It's super comfortable and quiet. For the price, the i7 is a great deal. It feels futuristic and luxurious. I'm curious to see how the real-world range of the i7 will perform. Currently, it seems to be around 300 miles, but I'll provide a more accurate assessment after further driving. Overall, the i7 is a fantastic car.

I test-drove one recently, and it felt like I was piloting something out of a sci-fi movie. The quiet cabin really stood out to me, it’s like a sanctuary on wheels. I’ve been wondering how close the real-world range gets to the estimate, especially if you’re using features like the heated seats or that awesome theater screen. The i7 seems like a game-changer for EV luxury.

I'm sure the real-world range will get clearer as you log more miles, but it already seems like a solid choice for luxury and performance.

I'm surprised how many people think this car is worth the money. I thought I'd never buy one. But I actually like the 7 Series now. The S-Class is still more for old people though 
Congratulations on your new i7! It's a truly stunning car. The eDrive50 offers incredible value for the money. It's essentially the same car as the 60, but for significantly less.

It's not the most exciting looking car from the outside, depending on how it's configured, but the inside is so nice and comfy. The only real downside? It's a long-wheelbase model, so parking it downtown was a nightmare.

I agree! The i7 looks super advanced, and 300 miles is solid. It'll be interesting to see how it performs in various conditions.

I have a 2025 i7. I’ve had it for about 3 months and have a little over 1,000 miles. As you can see I don’t do much driving anymore. During the winter I was getting about 250 miles. Now that it is warming up a bit 300 miles is what I am getting. I had a 2023 iX that became of heath reasons my wife had trouble getting in and out. I owned the iX when I traded it in the dealer gave me enough money to pay for a 3 year lease. I learned from the iX that the tech changes so often that leasing an electric vehicle is the best way to go. My first vehicle was a 1968 GTO and I have probably had 20 new cars. The i7 is by far the best car I have ever owned.
