BMW 7 Series 2020 in-depth review | carwow Reviews
This is the new BMW 7 Series! When it comes to luxury limousines, it’s hard to look past the 7 Series, Mercedes S-Class and Audi A8. But given it’s been a few years since a new A8 hit our streets, and even longer since a new S-Class was released, is it time for the 7 Series to take the crown of best luxury limousine out there?

Who's back here appreciating this after seeing 2023 model
me
Me
Meee tbh I hate those bmw new grills
Hell yeah ! mmeee 🙋🏻
Me This design still looks much better compared to the 2023 model
2020: that BMW has a nice grill 2040: that grill has a nice BMW
* SLAVIC ARYAN * how bad does it feel to spell loser twice?
True. Hahahahaha
Hahaha clever!
Jdgaming 51 in Germany your BMW has nice grills In Soviet Russia your grills has nice BMW
ARE YOU MAD ... YOUR THINKING VERY CHEAP ..... SHUT UP ....OK
If BBC is serious about Top Gear, they should recruit this guy
Top Gear was never a show about actual car reviews and comparisons. They are mostly about entertainment and car passion.
NO THEY KEEP PADDY, ANDREW AND CHRIS
Well said, Mat is born for Top Gear! The Freddie and Paddie experiment is awful!
@@lilosch With Matt, you get the best of both worlds.
They have Chris Harris.
4:23 masterpiece art by Mat !
That dividing opinion thing😂😂😂 Mat not only provides top notch reviews but is comedy gold as well!
Cringe*
Bah pretty divisive joke
It’s a dead joke
the grill joke was good...it made me crack up, thank you and keep it up!
Same here 😆
He seen the memes
I can't believe you drifted this car ! 😂😂
Pierre André It’s a BMW after all 🤷♂️
Sterling Int 7 series can drift fine idk what you’re talking about 😂 they’re not meant for the handling like a 3 or a 5 series but it’ll do the job
Why not? It's a BMW. "The Ultimate Driving Machine"; don't you remember?
It looked fucking awesome tho
4:22 made me actually laugh out loud omg
It’s Connor Gibbs 🖕 lol
@@drcool763 fuck off
lol I was surprised he drew a penis 😂
I suscribe for that!
@@drcool763 4:23 I think a middle finger doesn't get a mouse 🖱️like inserts and two ball 🏀 shaped stuff surrounding it. How ironic that you pointed something incorrect even on a joke, lol.
The best part is still when he brought that fence out 😅
I only saw a grill.
8:50 It's not pointless because you can put the front seat forward in the chauffeur position, and then you can't reach the screen. For the same reason, you have a remote in the S-Klasse.
S class... Do you even English bruh?
@@curleypubes3672 He wrote it right. The S-Klasse is German, duh.
@@curleypubes3672 You're not adding anything meaningful to the conversation with this remark.
Rares Duvac do you really think this car has no remote ? 😂 Also you can use the tablet for the tv
@@curleypubes3672 you are stupid as fuck
I just love how he always tries to find plastic in the interior
4:22when you driving but got send a quick pic 8:08 when you got practice before night
4:23 looks like you borrowed something from the Jeremy Clarkson play book ...well done sir.
Me: I don't really care about the reviews of the new 7 Series, it's basically just a facelift. carwow: *uploads their review* Me: Well I mean I can make an exception...
You made the right choice ;)
@@carwow Mat race with this car 760i
I love your work man. Good to get your cars with a side of humor
17:30 turns up in a meeting like that
My kind of meeting........ at least I dream
Teacher: *leaves room for one second* Me going up to the board: 4:23
Lol
Lol!
Nice
Lol nice
Word 🤣😂
4:21 I think BMW hasn't thought about that xD
That's weird and unexpected... unnecessary, really...
@Sour D That's quite a stretch... smh
@Sour D you don't know humor
Well that was refreshing in videos like this lmao
hell yeah they did
I've been seeing this 7 on the road lately and gosh it really looks amazing. The big grill is not ugly at all and it does make the car look more luxurious than ever.
where do you live?
This guy is so funny 😂 especially he was talking about beam light 😂 And makes the review entertaining not boring
this is the funniest review ive seen so far 😂😂
I feel sorry for the poor new generation who hasn’t seen Top Gear. I mean the REAL TOP GEAR.
I have never seen a 7 series with 3 people sitting in the back, the most you see is one person
Lonely at the top they say...
That’s very true
Please make comparison vedio of this bmw 2019 7series with audi a8 and Mercedes s class thanks.
That grill actually looks really good and makes bmws have more impact and presence
it almost gives it a maybach feel which is nice but theyre making them far too big now.. look at 2021 leaks
on this car i like it a lot on a more subtle 3 series i prolly wont
I do agree. Actually, it fits well to the 7 series!
Absolutely agree, I always had the feeling that the previous 7 series were looking more like a bigger 5-series, too much average sporty looking to compete with the latest S-classes (w221 and w222 really stepped up the game). This one in the video looks much more prestigious and elegant.
True ! This is the only time i considered the 7 series to be miles above the s class and the xj
Designers: How big is the grille? BMW: Yes.
BMW: WE NEED BIGGER!!!
Hated the grille at first. Loving it now. This always happens to me with BMW design, idk why
Same Its Happen To Me Too
Yep. The E60 was just horrendous when it came out. Now it's just beautiful.
This will not happen to the new 1 series
🧙♂️ 🎩 Mind controllllllll 😂.
You get used to them, and then when you do then the old ones that you loved start looking bad🤣
parking vertically in a parallel parking spot is so BMW. also, drifting a limousine is what i never knew i wanted to see.
If you look closely, it showed the option of both parallel and vertical parking. Usually, the car gives the option of choosing and then parking.
@@mashhoodirfan4997 I can't really see it, where did you spot it?
@@justsomeone4797 The P was shown in an L shape; one is for parallel and the other is for reverse.
8:10, That's cigar smoking btw..
Looks like Mat had some type of special medicine before this video 😂😂. So funny and informative. Thanks Mat 😍
The thing is that this behaviour they want to present as something very cool... Cannot agree with that at all
Mats a show off
@@tritackerule He is just a happy person.
I think we’re all happy that you lost the accent in geek mode..
Alig19998 hahaha 😂
I agree with you
I really love how it look from outside and also the cream interior with black alcantara
How many USB port this car have BMW: yes
@B how do you not know about these type of memes?
@B that's just your opinion but yeah i see what you mean but personally i find it hella funny (in most cases), and so do a lot of people, also it does make sense.
Cadillac escalade: yes yes yes yes
The next 7 series the car will have a bigger grille with smaller lights. After that, the grille will take up almost the whole front and the lights will be in the grille. Finally the grille will be the the car.
Just make the whole fucking front bumper a grille
I've been watching your reviews for years Matt. I like how they are 99% professional with a minor 1% of bants. Keep it like that! 👏
oh my god, the best review I've seen so far. good job man :)
That opening kidney joke was lol hilarious! I laughed at work!
*Does donuts* *Testing acceleration* "As for the economy?" Weeeell...
I've almost checked all my friends cars using the CarWow stick of truth, thank you matt, you have huge fans here in Egypt 😂😂❤
But how do you drive on the Pyramids? 🤔🤔🤔
TheBobes are you ok?
@@TheBobes thats what Mercedes G63 6x6 are made for. 😎
@@TheBobes I think they have normal roads like normal human beings
@Kadenu Was high wah sama2 indonesia dong kita
Thanks great review. Helpful to mention which features are optional/standard, when covering them:)
Bro that’s beautiful how you do the reviews of cars! 😂🔥
Matt in high school "You scored 100% on your test, good job" Matt: "Yes, but I'm still not as good as BMW's iDrive system"
Josip Ćurić well the idrive back then would have been horrendous
@@jordanbanko5347 Compared with today, yes.
I am not here for Car's review , I am here for the way Mat Explains🤩😍😍
you're a poor indian , who can afford only a 5usd android red phone and you shit o the streets and live in a hut
newgoblin49 why you gotta be so ignorant? Let other people be. You’re probably that person & can’t stand people being happy. lol
Alejandro Barahona India’s hate others of different castes creed race religion ethnicity, they’ve also democratically elected a government who’s invoked civil wars and ethnic cleansing. It’s completely fine to hate Indians they’re the scourge on planet earth
@@newgoblin49 you're fucking disgusting, get lost, no-one loves you.
Jyotiraditya Patil it’s ok. multiculturalism is what civilised people like me believe in. don’t be offended by some piece of shit
1st time ever watching this channel and a min or 2 into it, i knew i loved it already. 😂
I had to give this video a like when Matt pulled the “new” BMW grill. Had me lmao
Hello BMW! Bixby: You called me, Mat?
HarizshahHamin bixby thinks mat is cheating on her
@14:12 The 745e actually has a 3-litre Inline-6 engine, with a hybrid output of 400hp and not a 4-cylinder like the 740e iPerformance version had. And the M760Li has a 6.6 litre V12, but you got the HP number right!
Yeah i thought of that one too!
@@borisjovanovic7648 Me too :P
8:08 “cigar smoking” lol
Even if I can't afford a tire of the car, wow am enjoying the reviews
When he pulled out that fence🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fence?! We only saw grille...
Fun review that is full of humour and light heartedness yet is very interesting and informative. Well done, as always, Matt and the team!
I just bought one today . Traded in my 2016 730d xdrive for this 2019 ... awesome all round car
Whats the ride like?
@@pramay5116 Had it as a courtesy car for 3 days instead of a 5 series. Overall ride quality is awesome edging towards comfort. Its a massive car so the ride is not sporty as a 5 or 3 series.
@@bbar182 Ah okay. What about the interior, would you say its considerably nicer than a 5 series or pretty similar?
@@pramay5116 I like both, think they are similar to an extent but the 7 has the edge overall in terms of finish and it had more features like cooled seats and massage function etc. Of course this is reflected by the price tag.
@@bbar182 Oh Right. Was just wondering as we used to have a 5 series and were thinking of getting a 7. Thanks for the reply.
I am from France and I love your videos, and your humour. And the cars are very well described. Congratulations
Matt will alway be my favourite car review guy, his reviews are like bmw's idr system, he's the best in the game 😎
4:16 what are you doing 😂😂😂😂😂
Swivel wheel for I drive lol and wtf
😂😂😂
🙌🙌
Great review .... Good sync between info and humor.....
I just bought the 745 2020 which is simply the hybrid version of this car. Never thought I would go hybrid but now that I did, makes all kinda sense. I get all the power and tech of the “regular” 740, but with 57 MPG and no nervousness about ever running out of fuel because I will always have a tank of gas. Electric charge barely gives me enough for my daily commute (16-20 miles) but better than paying for gas and if you do the math, saves me quite a bit over time. Just adds a bit of fun factor for me. Thus far loving the experience.
That has to be the best and funniest review you've made! Love it! I'll bookmark this episode 😆😎
I know what BMW finally means. Brilliant Matt Watson. What a car reviewer..
Holy God, You're Pretty Right
That grille works on this car, I like it
Everytime Matt ware's those big glasses and goes over specs I doe laughing 😂
Chinese: How big can the grill be. BMW: Yes
They are ruining the look of it
pocholo99 I absolutely love it. It looks just like the concept 7 series from a coupe years ago
@@jordanbanko5347 it’s ugly
Love the reviews Matt. Keep up the great work. If I may, with the gradual move towards 48 volt, I thought it might be useful if you could tell everyone if the car has 12 or 48 volt. Especially with the luxury German makes. I feel it’s becoming more important.
Saw one in person i must say the big grilles are definitely unusual but i thought the car looked amazing
The Kidney grille adds so much character to this car .... it has grown on me a lot actually
Mr. Mat Watson well done!! Excellent review, a bit of humour and a lot of important information about this all new BMW 730LD. Keep it up I have beed watching you and fallowing you for long time ,, thank you
This is officially my favourite car
Looks aweful
Ted Archer just like your spelling then
Ted Archer you are So right
The way of his review is awesome.... It was like a documentary....👌👍👍
Matt is the wow in carwow gotta love this man
I think you got the engines a little bit wrong : 745e is also a straight 6 petrol engine and the 760Li is a 6.6 litre V12
4:22 OMG hahahahaha
Best review Ever in your channel 😍
17:23 woah.....i didnt ever seen this car like this. I saw everytime like floating above road..good to see like this...a new fun..
Hi Love the BMW lts all good ls a good car
Love this review! Freaking hilarious and informative :D
2:23 - “and I OOP-“ 😂😂
looool i love your humour. you are almost convincing myself to move to england. great work.
I love the new BMW grill daamn! 🔥
XD I can't tell if your reviews keep getting crazier or not. You are doing a great job.
Mat review Mercedes E class hybrid and BMW 5 series hybrid
I'm still happy that BMW has an iDrive to control the infotainment system instead of only using touch displays. So I just have to look to the display if the right item is selected instead of looking where I put my finger on the display and lose attention to the road (that's the opposite to the VW Tiguan that my family member drives).
5:00 haha why did you just throw your phone away😂
7:05 Cameraman: 'Ow!' 😂😅
I didn't know you could activate the massage function by writing on the swivel wheel Matt....
That car looks GORGEOUS from the front. Big elegant brute.
I'm glad to see you're finally growing up, Mat ;-)
Great review as always, small mistake though, the 760 has 6.6 l V12.
@King Zak because it drives better
@@richu914 It's also electronically limited. Can easily produce 750hp. BMW themselves have also confirmed that.
@King Zak It produces more torque lower down and is gimped. It can easily produce 700bhp with a light tune. And that noise!
King Zak smooth power delivery
King Zak V12s are buttery smooth and build power very differently than V8s. It’s not about going fast. It’s about luxury. A Rolls Royce Phantom doesn’t use a V12 so it can outrun anything. It’s there to making driving smooth and effortless. Same story with the 760Li
0:25 lmaoooo 4:20 bruh the face he makes afterwards too 😂
first last I’ve replayed that sequence way too many times! That face has me dying
4:22
@@oppos727 😂
Gotta love Matt's sense of humour!
Who do people complain about the large grill? Look at the Audi A8 and even the S class... I think this car is beautiful
Loving the next generation grille coming in 3 years... hillarious !
Mat is definitely the real MVP. GREAT AND EXCITING REVIEWS 🤙
Iam in how matt tell about the engine and horse power in one go 😱 from 14:05 to 14 :44 a true car lover you are matt❤❤❤
I actually think it looks pretty good, the grill is large but it adds some amount of road presence... saw no one complaining about A8 🤔
I also love your new Tom Ford spectacles it’s so classy..:)
Whenever Matt do a review on Luxury car, he'd definitely wear the Black Label Burberry Shirt! Just lov'in it!
Matt why didn’t you mention accelerations of 4.4 v8 & 6.6 v12? Both are 0.1 seconds off so what’s the point of getting them m760li?
The face after the drawing is killin me
4.21 sec was the best part of this video! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Parves Kamal with you there
4:22 OK, that was excesive! 😂😂😂😂
Could you please do a drag race with the BMW 7 series, Audi A8 and Mercedes Benz S-class. All long wheel bases
my understanding is the 745 hybrid has a staight 6 to correct the former error of a limo with a 4pots hybrid - am I mistaken?
