2023 BMW X7 Towing Features & Upgrades

There isn’t a dedicated BMW X7 tow package—Johns Creek buyers only need the BMW X7 tow hitch to reach the 7,500-pound towing maximum. However, the X7 xDrive40i is upgradeable with several performance-focused feature packages. These options include the Dynamic Handling Package, which adds Integral Active Steering and Active Comfort Drive with Road Preview.

Thanks to the following standard features, the X7 is plenty capable even in its base configuration:

  • Voice-control navigation
  • Adaptive cruise control
  • xDrive torque-vectoring all-wheel drive
  • Electronic M Sport locking rear differential
  • Adaptive air suspension system
