2026 BMW 7 Series review

BMW 7 Series: a sensible pick with a few compromises. Illustrative review

7.7/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 BMW 7 Series is a reasonable choice if the price is right. Comfortable front seats on long trips; standard driver-assist suite. Rear headroom is tight for tall passengers and road noise on coarse pavement, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $100,000, it costs more than most direct rivals.

Better than the test drive suggested

Twelve thousand miles in. Nothing has gone wrong, dealer service has been easy, and the fuel economy still impresses passengers.

Would buy again

Bought it for the a long commute and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.
