As though its vehicle lineup wasn't already long enough, BMW is adding the X7, the biggest and most luxurious SUV in its history. Built on the same assembly line as the X5, the X7 is 207 millimetres longer and offers a factory-standard seven-passenger configuration. This German mastodon will first be available with six- and eight-cylinder engines. A plug-in hybrid version should follow.
