BMW X7 vs. X5: Performance

The BMW Sports Activity Vehicle® segment is filled with models that deliver the thrilling performance you want, along with the innovative technology that you need. And while both models offer high-quality performance on the Chapel Hill roads, there are some differences to note as well:

  • Optional Upgrades: Want to customize your performance? Both models offer performance M engines for even more heart-racing action. The ALPINA XB7 achieves up to 631 hp, while the X5 M maxes out with 600 hp.
  • Fuel Economy: Want to cut down on your fuel consumption? The X5 xDrive45e is a plug-in hybrid model with up to 39 miles of all-electric range! The X7 doesn’t offer a plug-in hybrid configuration.

BMW X7 vs. X5: Dimension

Comparing the 2024 BMW X5 vs. 2024 BMW X7, the BMW X7 is the larger model. However, both models offer quite a bit of everyday convenience with flexible layouts. Take a closer look at the dimensions:

  • BMW X5 Seating: The BMW X5 has a standard five-person configuration, but you can add an optional third row to create space for seven.
  • BMW X7 Seating: The BMW X7, on the other hand, has a standard seven-person configuration. That means extra legroom for third-row passengers to stretch out and relax compared to the more compact X5.
  • Cargo Space: The BMW X5 has 33.9 cubic feet of cargo space available when all five seats are in use, along with a maximum of 72.3 cubic feet. The BMW X7 has 12.8 cubic feet of trunk space, but a maximum of 90.4 cubic feet – which makes it a great choice if you need tons of storage.
