CRASH
DATANot crash-tested
The BMW i7 is a full-size, all-electric luxury sedan positioned at the very top of BMW's lineup, competing directly against the Mercedes-Benz EQS and Audi A8 e-tron. It targets affluent buyers who want flagship comfort, cutting-edge technology, and zero-emission driving in a single, imposing package. With a wheelbase designed for rear-seat indulgence, the i7 is as much a chauffeur's car as a driver's car.
The 2025 BMW I7 has not been crash-tested by NHTSA, so it carries no Safety Index. Its safety record here is built from 2 recalls and 1 owner complaint on file, giving it a light recall and complaint burden.

Reviewers generally praise the i7 for its exceptionally refined ride quality, opulent rear-seat comfort, and a cabin that sets a high bar for materials and interior technology in the electric luxury segment. Driving dynamics are described as composed and effortless, and the overall execution is considered polished for a first-generation electric flagship. Some reviewers note the exterior styling as a point of debate.
