- The BMW 7 Series is a technological powerhouse, with more gadgets and gizmos than the space station. Okay, that may be an exaggeration... But the BMW 7 Series launches the luxury saloon into the unknown, proudly going where no saloon has gone before. But does this mean the 7 Series is all show and no go? How does it compare to rivals like the Mercedes S-Class, Audi A8 and Jaguar XJ? Find out what I think of this luxury saloon in this in-depth review.

best car reviews on CZcams.
+Tbessix220 thanks
j
Tbessix220 q
Tbessix220 no it isn't.can I refer you to the top gear CZcams channel
Calum Lees oh okay do they release new content with clarkson, may, and hamster?
I think it looks wicked on the outside. Aggressive luxury
Am I the only one who loves the way this looks? And considering every other bmw which is gonna be released later on (3 and 5 series etc.) will look similar to this, I think I'm gonna love them
it will probably look based on this one but it wont look exactly the same like the S class, E class and the C class did. lol. i can hardly differentiate them.
Yeah it's just you
U were wrong bro
@@rajdeepparab he wasn't wrong though. The comment is 4 years old
@@paradox5556and u replied a year later😂
I like your reviews , they aren't long , surprisingly they're specific to every detail
Loving the humour in your reviews mixed with good factual info. Keep it up
i love your car reviews they’re the best! and such good quality thank you
I died when he danced lmao 😂 most entertaining car reviewer I've seen so far!
dont stop carwow and mat watson! keep up the good work
this guy is probably the best reviewer on youtube. brutal honestly! thats what we need.
You sum them up well..clear cut. Great videos😎
Great vid Matt!
The best car reviews than any in CZcams,keep it up carwow
can you live in this car? it's worth more than my home
it has most things so probably yes
Has more tvs than my home too
Stephen Butler v
If you can do without a toilet, yes it very much is a home on wheels.
in the southeast asia...this kind of price range u can buy 2-3 bungalow houses 😂
You are too good at your work love your videos,keep it up pal! 😊
love the way mat was dancing; he really does know how to have fun
I test drove a brand new 5 series a few days ago, which has practically the same interior interior as the 7 series and if you dont like the interior, you've clearly never sat in the car let alone driven or owned one. The interior is insane. Its very special.
OMD'S HE ACTUALLY SAID "GHOST RIDING THE WHIP" LOOL IM DEAD HE EARNS MY RESPECT!!
this was really helpful and entertaining :) thanks
Mat throwing shapes is the funniest thing I've seen today! Nice moves Mr Watson.
7 series and s class r amazing but both r in different league.
s class for being driven in classic comfort and 7 series when u are a busy person and wanna do lot of stuff in comfort and in a modern way.
simple words s class for classic comfort and 7 series for modern comforts. a
I have no idea what I just watched at 7:14
true 😂😂
lol nearly spat my dinner out at that bit rofl
That was badass

matt is the best reviewer out there...Thanks Man!!!!
Excellent review. Thank you!
Love the motor trend reference
beautiful car, everytime i see one in the streets , it brightens my day
nice review! it was well rounded.
Another top review, thanks a lot Mat.
I always loved 7 series cars the design looks well shaped and big
Maybe the only car these days which has really changed compared to the previous modell. love the enterior and the exterior too. Thats a real great luxury sedan of 2016.
nO WORDS..!! from childhood BMW.. !! cant beat BMW look..360 degree camera... remote control parking..mind blowing..!!
best car reviews umade my day
This is a dream car
That "seven forty" at 2:31 is actually a hidden Mercedes symbol. ;)
atizeg you have a sharp eye...
great eye!
I can't see it.
atizeg it's actually 7:20
I was referring to what Matt said at the end.
The time is 7:40 the alarm set to 4 o'clock. ;)
Your videos are the best in the internet. Thanks an greetings from germany.
your reviews are the best
This segment in a Nutshell
1- Mercedes fanboys: the S Class is the best car ever made, has always been and will always be
2- BMW fanboys: The 7 Series drives better and i'm a car guy so i don't need a chauffeur 7 all day baby
3- Tesla fanboys: the Model S is the best car ever made, has always been and will always be
4- Audi fanboys... Nowhere to be seen because the A8 is a pos, but we don't mind
5- Maserati and Jaguar fanboys: at least it's not german.
Special mention to the Lexus LS, always forgotten.
well observed mate
So true..! Hit the nail on the head. Nothing wrong in liking a brand, so long as you're realistic, like I realise Jag aren't quite their yet. Doesn't mean I can't like them. Blind keyboard fan boys do my head in lol.
lol true
True. I'm an audi fanboy but really the a8 needs to be updated. It's cool but I'd never get it for that kind of money...
good thing is they depreciate so fast if you get a 12/18 month old one they're a Bargin!!
The Bowers & Wilkins sound system in this is apparently mind blowing and like a home theatre on wheels
I love the reviews of this channel
Absolutely laughed my head off when you started dancing next to it hahaha
I look forward to buying one of these in 10 years time for the price of a Dacia Sandero.
Be a bargain in 3 years when it loses 2 thirds of it's value.
Like all luxury sedans.
Frocobo But than it’ll be outdated
Irrelevant when your super power is "I'm rich"
AJ Outdated? Lol, people really need to learn what that word really means. This car will still feel new and up to date in 5 years.
Yea but also it loses its warranty after 3 years
I have to admit, I am really enjoying watching this video, your presenting is awesome
Finally review of 7 series
I love the BMW 7
hit wonda zim zimma
The leather on the side if the drivers seat looks so cheap all loose like that.
superb review mat:)))))))
You guys are awesome! Best car reviews next to Top Gear/The Grand Tour
Top video Matt
you didnt even watch yet....
+Abdo Jouma hhhhhhhhhh
Abdo Jouma 6mins in I watched more than some people will
man please lol your comment was there when the video was uploaded 1 minute ago with 10 views on it, no way you watched it all hehe
Can u compare s class vs 7 series
there are already comparisons out and guess what, s class beats 7 series every time lol
It dosent. Problem is theres those Mercedes fan Boys that cant even afford a new Mercedes like bragging bout how good it is even tho they themselfs drive a golf or something...
Not true because on CNet and CarMagazine.co.uk (for example, it's not the only ones) the 7 Series comes on top. The S Class seems to "win" most of the time, and in the big magazines (auto express, motortrend), but it doesn't wipe the floor with the 7.
Petar Juric well mate im on my 3rd mercedes now and i own a cls 350cdi shooting break, bought it brandnew last year. Before that i had a 5 series bmw so i think i know what im talking about. Im not a merc fanboy, just think most modern mercs are better looking and more upmarket than bmws these days
Petar Juric it is the truth merc is always better
Your reviews are very entertaining I like it
Great vid again! The front is nice unlike the new LCI model...
forget the car, 10/10 for mat's mini dance session.
7:13 lololololo so funny
Love your reviews
great video Mat :-) as always. what maybe you should do is do something like a short test, 0-100km/h 100-0km/h breaking test as staff like that.
Carwow/Mat, please change the wording from 'here's five' to 'hear are five'! Many thanks :)
Why though?
This car depreciates more than any car I know!!!!!!
Fernando Barbosa how would you know? This car is brand new and isn't on the used market yet
BeefPlays all 7 series do. Sure I read it somewhere. No joke. Google it and you'll see loads of shit about it.
jesus, you made him very angry
Dude there is no point arguing. What makes the difference between you and them. U made ur point, just ignore the rest.
Foer Hoen lol and you still play computer games haaaaaa. What are you fucking 12! Grow the fuck up and tame that mono brow also haaaa.
I loooooovee that remote control feature ...😎
I can tell Mat really enjoy this review!! :D
S Class vs. 7 series please.
i think they dont do versus videos , not so sure
Sid Acidic I think you're new here. Yes he does it.
Diego Lobo im not new im just confused when u have carwow and thousands other car channel lol. sorry bud.
Sid Acidic You're welcome.
will u do a Tesla p100d review anytime ?? @carwow
mkbhd will😅
Whats the point of reviewing that poorly engineered and built sack of unreliable and useless in real world crap on wheels that just has powerful tram engines? It's the same as the ones before, but slightly faster at low speeds.
How do you say that when all say it's the most technologically advanced car in the world
the entire is an engineering masterpiece. ev is the future. it doesnt need a lot of maintenance.
very intuitive and funnny .carry on
Looks great, but I cannot unsee the hockey stick on the rocker panels. Thanks Motortrend.
Why didn't you go to Paris!?
Cause CARWOW has no money

What's with all the repeating lines??
***** you ruined it!
OK! We heard and saw your review. However, I do not appreciate your criticism of the gear shifter/lever. You may not like it's position, trust me, many, many of us love it the way BMW designed and situated it. That's the ideal/practical location for a gear shifter. And it's not fat, it does not obstruct anything, so why are you complaining about it. This is a Bimmer and not a Mercedes Benz. We lovers of BMW do not like gear shifters on the steering column. For all purposes, BMW got it right at the right spot. please don't mess with it. If you don't like it, perhaps you need to get an MBZ. Period. Thanks.
Matt, what would you recommend then? Avoid, consider, shortlist, or buy?
Really like ur reviews, than the vehicle u stand out matt.
I really like to request u a interior noise test & a Vibration test on bmw 740e at least any 7 series.
Keep up the good work!
Wow you guys got inspired for the Hockey Stick from Motortrend
yep and they got inspired by the hockeystick from 5th gear so whats ur point?
Shadnan Ishan oh? Ok
Love the car wow reviews but thought the review on this car was a little harsh or perhaps rather not in depth enough. I own this car fully speced with fridge and all, sold the s500 and will never own a Mercedes again after this. Most people dont realise what the new 7 did. In terms of the review, I've seen more praise on Audis and other new 2018/2019s that were introduced by this 7 series tech, handling and spec wise. Now design and looks wise opinions will always differ but quality and tech related, believe me when i say the 7 has leap frogged the S class. This from someone that owned and lived with both. The 7 is still in the garage.
Beautiful 😍😍. I'm going for the short wheel base on though. Yes sir
LOL, you're very very funny at this video, I laugh a Lot. And this car is amazing! You do the best reviews, Mat. Good Job.
The fact that the S is 3 years old and is still the king of luxury sedans is impressive.
' a lot of your friends'
k. lol. i bet they own the old one not this one, the only thing that sounds a bit gimmicky is only the 'move the car by the remote' thing.
i dont want to argue cause i know what they have. ty
What are you? 12?
Damn so many BMW fanboys after me.. How interesting..
Damn, you have 'a lot of friends' with the new 7 Series..
How interesting..
7-series over S-class or A8 any day
Dmitry L L
Dmitry L you obviously have never driven the S or the 7 series
S8 makes the 7 series look impotent
mitja čebulj I did drive the current S-class, but not the 7-series. The S-class objectively is the class leader if you're judging the passenger seat, but as a driver it's not that good. Even the key is the cheap key from 2006 C-class, the infotainment is a bit of a pain to use, the car is quite heavy and it feels like it doesn't like corners, some controls are oddly positioned etc. A8 is just getting a bit old now to be honest, just need to wait for the new one. But the 7-series is spot on
Huplakids
Keep up the good videos
This channel is amazing, when will you have a head 2 head with the volvo v90, audi a6 avant, mercedes benz e class estate. Anyways keep up the superb reviews.
one thing is that it looks way better than the s class
Debatable. I think S Class looks glorious whilst 7 series looks like a big fat tuna fish can. :)
s class is ugly as hell
Mark Stefanac you're just another merc fan.
albabadboy123 : not offence, but based on sale numbers and popularity surveys, the S Class is technically proven to be "better-looking" or at least "better" than the 7 series. There's nothing wrong with a fan pointing that out
Syafiq Norkhalim
There are many (rich) people with bad taste, so sales doesn't really say anything about the objective beaty of each car. The S-class is also pretty much the go-to car if you want a big luxury saloon, so people might just buy it because of that and the image.
The S -class looks way better. The interior looks more opulent and overall just a prettier looking thing.
6:49 "especially after watching motor trend video all i see now is a hockey stick" lmfao nailed it! xD i know what he's talking about haha
I like this man's review
Please all gods wherever they are. Let all of us who love BMW get one of them.
where i live its 220,000 USD and still not the highest tier and u can still add options ..............
In singapore this shit cost like $500,000 USD!!!!
+SkankHunt42 I think you forgot to add that it's the entry level model.
no no its not the entry level , the entry level is like 190,000 its like the mid tier but without all the bells and whistles .
karim abdelrahman I was actually referring to the singapore comment but forgot to add the reply.
NHAZCI oh , don't worry about it mate just actually this car's price is bullshit
Currently driving the 5 series and this will be my future buy.
FINALLY a review of the 7 Series that is not f*cking biased!!! THANK YOU Mat Watson!
Like for Mat!
Sorry but the fact that many people can't afford this car doesnt mean that you can do a crappy review of it......this kind of car needs an open road review with majestic scenery....and a bit of respect....remember its not a vaxhall corsa
+AmoreFerrari I was actually very pleased with this review. Thought it was one of my better ones. Next time I will see if I can drive it down the Great Ocean Road in Australia, through the Alps and then across the plains of Tibet. Oh wait, this isn't the Grand Tour... Probably just do the same thing again. But in a better ironed shirt.
+carwow youre missing the point. not all kinds of cars have to be reviewed in the same way. for instance on this car you can review details that are not even measureable on normal cars. also you can do a 3-way review with the new panamera and the s-class and see decibel levels inside whilst on a highway. bump force levels. performance. premium services offered by manufacturers. etc...sometimes it pays to be less cheeky and it will still be interesting
This is carwow's style though
I like these carwow reviews.
you do realize, most of the people that CAN afford this don't watch CZcams reviews right? a very small sect would but honestly, why not make it universal? Every reviewer needs to be unique, otherwise, what's the point?
7:14 😂😂😂😂 wtf that dance move was 😱😱😂
the 360 car camera view of bmw is insane!
Wow. The Rolls Royce 7 series.
the legroom is very bad for a long wheelbase car.A superb has more legroom
You should never, ever judge a car's legroom by comparing it to a Skoda Superb.
well he moved the seat fowards lok at where his legs are ;)
Clever Easter egg Mat!
Best review
The interior dashboard looks a lot like 3 series. It just doesnt look all that special.
exactly right? its just an upgraded 3 or 4 series interior
If you think that maybe you should stop watching car videos, you clearly know nothing about them.
+Foer Hoen Same.
+derbigp500 oh boohooo did his opinion offend you?
MS it is same interior as all bmws from years now
When I look at this machine I feel like it doesn't have that "wow factor". It looks pretty much like any other bmws .
anathema987654321 all bmws look like every other bmw.
Joshua Marcano hahahag
Yes. But they all look brilliant!
Can you do a group test of the 2018 Audi A8, Mercedes s-class and the 7 series
Mat, you are great.

Hands down, 7 series wins this time against merc and audi
Having driven both the S class and 7 series...BMWs always out drive. They are a driver's car. I was privileged enough to own a late 5 series with a big inline six mated to a six speed manual when stationed in Germany and it is/was the best driving car I have ever owned to this day
Those extra black details on white 7 series is the best combination
