Room in every row for a family of seven

The BMW X7 is the biggest BMW ever built, with seating for seven in three rows. Above all three rows, the panoramic glass sunroof opens the cabin to the sky. On the drive to Destin or a game in Niceville, the third row is a real seat.

Our dealership is a partner of ZT Automotive Group. We have served the Emerald Coast since 1968. Our showroom on North Beal Parkway has the X7 xDrive40i new on the lot. Each of our advisors holds the BMW Genius Client Advisor title. The whole family is welcome on the test drive.

Asked most often by families from Destin and Navarre

Will all seven of us travel in comfort?

Yes. The X7 seats seven in three rows, and it is the largest BMW available, with the most seating. The panoramic glass sunroof brings light to every row, and available 5-zone climate control lets each passenger set a temperature.

  • xDrive all-wheel drive on every X7

The guide

The best BMW SUV for a family of 7

Which X7, how it seats your family and how it feels on a long drive. Then how we sell it and look after it in Fort Walton Beach.

1. The X7, the largest BMW available

A large family travels together in the X7, with xDrive all-wheel drive on every one.

In our showroom, the X7 measures 203.6 inches from nose to tail, the largest BMW available. The X7 xDrive40i on our lot uses a 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo inline six with 48V mild-hybrid technology. Its 375 horsepower takes the X7 from 0 to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds. Every X7 at our dealership is assembled at the BMW Spartanburg Plant in South Carolina.

When a summer storm rolls over Fort Walton Beach, xDrive relays power to the individual wheels for traction and control. The adaptive suspension adapts to the road by itself, in the back row as well as the front. It has an 8-speed Sport Automatic with paddle shifters and a 21.9-gallon fuel tank.

2. Seven seats or six, and a third row worth sitting in

The second row decides how the X7 seats your family.

Every X7 at our dealership has three rows. With the standard second-row bench it seats seven. The optional six-seat layout swaps the bench for two all-electric Captain's Chairs. They give two passengers more comfort and leave a clear way back to the third row.

The X7 has the most seating of any BMW, with spacious headroom in every row. On the drive home to Navarre, the panoramic glass sunroof brings daylight to all three rows. Our Client Advisors can tell you which X7s on our lot carry the Captain's Chairs and which have the bench.

3. A cabin made for long family drives

On the drive to Pensacola or a weekend in Crestview, the cabin is where the family spends the day.

On the X7s in our showroom, available 5-zone climate control lets each passenger choose a temperature. On a July afternoon, Remote Engine Start in the My BMW App cools the cabin before you leave the house. The available Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System brings 36 speakers and up to 1,965 watts. For the drive to Pensacola, the BMW Universal Tablet Holder turns up to 360 degrees on a front seatback.

On the X7s we sell, the Head-up Display keeps navigation and driving information in your line of sight. With BMW Digital Key Plus, a smartphone in your pocket opens the X7 as you approach. The interior then adjusts to the profile selected. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto play the music the children choose on the way to our showroom. Available Merino leather upholstery finishes the cabin.

4. Room behind the seats for the beach day

Every X7 at our dealership holds 48.6 cubic feet of cargo with the second row upright. With the second row folded, the space grows to 90.4 cubic feet. When every seat is in use, the BMW Roof Box 520 adds 18.4 cubic feet on top.

When the boat comes along too, the X7 xDrive40i tows up to 7,500 pounds with the available factory-installed hitch. Our parts department carries Genuine BMW Accessories. An accessory that needs fitting is installed at our Service Center. The BMW Roof Box 520, an Original BMW Accessory, adds 18.4 cubic feet on top.

5. Buying, financing or leasing your X7

Our on-site Finance Center sets out the choices, so a loan and a lease are one conversation.

A new X7 can be financed with a new BMW auto loan or leased. At our Finance Center, our representatives show you every option and the advantages of each. Before you visit, our Value Your Trade tool shows the market for the car you drive today, in two steps. The finance application can be filled out online to save time at our dealership.

6. Ownership, looked after on North Beal Parkway

After the sale, our service center keeps the X7 ready for the next trip.

Every new BMW we sell begins with BMW Ultimate Care. It covers scheduled maintenance for the first 3 years or 36,000 miles. BMW Roadside Assistance covers the first 4 years with unlimited miles, around the clock. At our service center, factory-trained technicians look after the X7 with genuine BMW parts and BMW-specific diagnostic tools. We always consult you before completing any other repairs.

For a busy family on 30A, we pick up the X7 and bring it back when the work is done. Our service department is open Monday to Saturday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Pick up and delivery reaches as far as 30A, and our Tire Center mounts, balances, rotates and aligns tires.
