Topher, I have been watching you going on five years now, and not once have I heard you use a bad word. You have a presence, a very calm demeanor about you in the videos. The fact that a car this expensive was able to make you feel this way about it at this price point is an utter failure on BMW's part. Sad to see.
the rant starts at around 9:00 for those who just want to skip to that. It speaks VOLUMES about modern BMW that someone as soft-spoken and calm as Topher was as upset as he was about the car. I have been watching your content for a couple years now and I applaud you for not sugar coating or glossing over the massive flaws modern BMWs have regarding the infotainment system. I really hope BMW learns from this and gets it together for later generations, because this review should be all the convincing they need to take it back to the drawing board!
The part in your rant about feeling stressed driving the car resonates with me completely. I purchased a 2023 330e xDrive several months ago and while it was fun to drive and the tech was novel at first, I very quickly realized it was overwhelming. The car was also not optioned with the adaptive cruise control which made the distraction all the more stressful. I decided after two months it was not going to be a good long term car and traded it in for CPO 2024 Volvo S60 T8 Recharge Ultimate. Such a breath of fresh air (but not without its own flaws).
Chris and Chris, They got one important thing right with the 7 Series. It has a traditional sedan shape which means there is as much headroom in the back seats as the front seats. That is incredibly rare these days.
@@alpenjodel24 kills me to say it, Porsche is still standing on business. But yeah the new greenies are killing the auto-industry, to prop up their buddies mining lithium (who they are all deeply invested in)
its cost cutting plain and simple the irony is that we're so discouraged from using our phone while driving, but there's no regulation about the ridiculous screens and infotainment BS that proliferates today's "luxury" cars its great how you brought up the G90 because the Koreans understand luxury better than the Germans now. Even my Honda made in 2024 can be operated without reliance on the screen Remember when BMW harped on the "ultimate driving machine"? this is anything but
I still hate that automakers looked to Tesla for the minimalist interior design and shoved everything into the screen _without_ looking at what made it work in those cars. Yes, everything is on the screen in my Model 3, but I can adjust my lumbar and following distance without having to dig through twelve layers of menus.
But it has a horsepower of a hellcat. I mean I don’t know what the battery range is, but it’s still good no? Then again, bmw are known for being unreliable so I guess not.
Horsepower is just a number. What's more important is horsepower to weight ratio. It doesn't matter if a car has 2000hp if it weighs 20 tons it's not going to be very fast nor drive very well.
Acceleration at mid speeds are mostly affected by power to weight. But at higher speeds, it is the car with more power that takes the lead, assuming comparable drag. Low speed: traction Mid speeds: power to weight High speed: power and drag
You should watch topherdrives comfort mode ep1. He mentions how he met topher at his job like 9 years ago when he was still a teenager. Thetopher is definitely like if not actually is a mentor to him. It was actually really cool to hear about it wouldn’t mind hearing more about their history as friends.
The tech in my 24 Allroad is a great balance imo. I've got the Prestige Package with all options (inc port options) & there's still a ton of physical controls while still having up to date tech within displays & driving assistance. I actually chose the A4 Allroad over the A6 Allroad bc of this, the A6 interior is the new Audi design language stuff where everything is within touch screens & I just cannot get jiggy wit it. My 2018 GT Sport (Hyundai i30 in other markets) is the same way & honestly has alooot of the same tech the newer Genny's have, including layout which that car is 6 years old now, but there's nothing wrong with that & the same goes for the Genny's. Alot of luxury brands are going super tech forward instead of focusing on what actually makes luxury luxurious. Main controls a user needs when operating a car should be common sense in use & location, & I feel that my Audi, & my Hyundai both do that great.
As a 2023 X3 owner, I can say pretty confidently that these newer iDrive systems are making me even less interested in the new X3 than its interior design, which is really saying something. And I'd love to think the 7-series would be the ultimate executive commuter. But man, in a car that I would be driving in traffic, probably on some days that are not ideal, I just want it to be easy to use. Besides the 7-series, this iDrive system is in basically all BMWs now (apart from the Z4, if I recall correctly).
LOVE spicy topher shitting on these ergonomics. THANK YOU. I really like this car’s design, seems to ride great, but c’mon the cost cutting and perceived value of getting rid of buttons is a TERRIBLE decision by the finance guys at these car companies. 7 series is booty cheeks to control and get in and out of. The S class is a cut and paste design of the C class, with huge screens and capacitive buttons that again make it difficult to operate. Also the creaky interior that focuses more on gimmicks. The best large luxury sedan is the Genesis and the Panamera. It’s AMAZING.
Well, as a Bavarian: Es tut mir leid! (I'm sorry)! I'm really unsure, what BMW is doing. I really dislike the 7 Series designwise, the rant is absolutely justified, as the menu-deepness (that's just what I'm going to call it) and complexity seems worse than any videogame I've played so far, and all that while driving? (And being on your phone in any way while driving is forbidden, but looking at a screen in your car and playing around, no, having to play around with that is absolutely fine, that seems safe) I really don't know what my domestic company is doing currently, I can just say sorry, that's not what BMW should stand for... (And no, I do not work for BMW, nor am I associated with them in any way (yet, gotta keep some options open))
They are always harping about safety on the roads, making cars safer, lowering the speeds on roads, adding a ton of safety features, but then these companies are allowed to remove physical buttons. I dont understand why the EPA (i think? I'm not American) allows it.
For someone like myself having 508 miles on a full tank is more than enough. Whether or not one can only fill it up twice a year I doubt that. For my usage it'll take once every 2/3 months run that out.
The automatic shutoff on driver door opening is one of the things I hate the most about Teslas. It's too clever for its own good. Glad BMW decided to give me even more reasons to hate the new 7, other than it's "styling" or lack thereof.
I can tell you why "My BMW' didn't work - you were leaned towards the centre of the vehicle, whereas the mic is right above the drivers (and passengers) head. If mine ever doesn't work, that is always the reason. Try next time with your head in its normal position while driving.
ngl I thought this would be a bit better but maybe it's just the size & weight of the 7 series. I've been wondering what's up with the 550e or 560e as its kinda been crickets since bmw announced them last year. At first I thought these phevs would be a great idea, especially for a city dweller, but considering the added weight (i.e. m5) I'm not confident that bmw made the right choice is a universal chassis for both evs, phevs, and petrol cars. Not to mention the cost of that integrated battery eventually going to sh*t over time. I reckon they'll be available on the "cheap" in the used market 2-4 years, even more so than the petrol cars.
Who is buying this thing? Lease only (for an entertainment lawyer who lives in Encino driving to his office on the westside). All the damn bs screens and bs modes and dash colors is giving me a seizure. Rather drive my '19 GLI or 2020 S3 any day over this POS, IMHO. It's like BMW engineers dosed DMT and created the screens and interior "light bright" stupid interior lighting, IMHO. Incidentally I love people from Michigan. It's funny to listen to salt of the earth midwesterners swear and get angry (it sounds so gentle and polite). Born and raised in California but have many clients from Grosse Pointe and Ann Arbor. Rather have an Audi S8 (or A8) over this).
I hate the screens so much its not futuristic or very tech impressive it just looks cheap and ugly and just imagine in like 10 years how shit they will be, its simply a cost saving measure that looks like innovation and I hate it, Its soooo ugly
Automakers have gone a touch too far in the ‘no physical buttons for basic functions’ direction. I’d like to think they’ve received enough feedback to correct course, and I get it won’t be an immediate change (they’ve committed to this architecture now in these iterations) but I really hope in a facelift or two they’ll hit the happy middle ground that’s sorely needed.
Even more than the functionality, it’s a sign of laziness. It’s a sign of wanting to be on the Tesla trend. No one respects a bus rider as Charles Barkley said. We want to see BMW do what BMW does best. Their brand identity has completely and entirely evaporated in favor of trying to catch sales trends
You couldn't give me one of these pieces of shit. I know you could "resell" it but I'm talking if I had a choice between this monstrosity and something like a ct5 v blackwing theres just no contest.
@@Delvy787for me it’s the crystals and aluminum speaker grills and the speakers inside the seats. Very clean looking even if it’s very hard to control everything.
@@forcedhaircut ah ok! For me the screens distracts and dates the car now, I can’t get around it. I just wish BMW put more thought & effort in integrating them into the dash and designing an actual garage cluster, along with thinking through the ergonomics.
I was devastated but not surprised by the new M5 release. Absolutely ruined. BMW is thoroughly destroying anything that was once good about their vehicles and nobody is even asking for it. I’ve seen nothing but negative response to these atrocious releases since 2020 but they keep on going down this path. Quite sad.

BMW has been one of the carmakers that I appreciate, but I am beginning to question everything. They may be losing their way. The 7 series has always been a good-looking car, but this one is hideous, I would not buy it.
I don't plan on owning any BMW's past 2019 or any cars for that matter, I'm not much if a tech guy and seeing so man vehicles with these big screens and so many in screen settings is beginning to annoy me. I grew up being a fan of BMW and I can say this BMW and previous year models is nearly a disgrace.
Japan: makes simple cars People: boo Japan is behind korea Germany: makes complex cars People: boo German cars too complicated korean more simple Japan and Germany: 👁️👄👁️ Don't worry, I agree that BMW's new infotainment is stupid. Just putting what I feel out there.
I miss this channel just doing perfect pov drive, enjoying the car, not complaining and bad word on any content now, i think people come here not to hear that complaining, car is just car, if you didnt like it maybe other like it, if you didnt like it just keep it for your self ☹️
I dislike this car. That way of closing the doors is the worst ever, it's basically a huge pile of electronics ... A Lexus is more reasonnable. Coming from a BMW fanboy, i would never trade my old e39 525tds ( yes it's diesel) for this expensive piece of crap. If this car can manage to do 10% of total mileage i have in my e39 wich is 590.000 km, without getting some kind of electronic faults, i'll be applauding. I would even dare to say, that this car, brand new, would die way sooner than my old e39.
Folks are resistant to the EV era thats coming.Its amusing because the opinions differ depending on manufacturer...how come Tesla,Rivian or Lucid dont get some of this shit? More manufactures are going to move away from physical functions whether we like it or not. Porsche & Merc are leading that trend in Germany followed by BMW. It generates clicks to "rant" about BMW...people should avoid buying EVs as much as they can. Its simple.
