Not only is its powertrain high-tech, thanks to BMW\u2019s latest generation of electric power unit, but its cabin tech borders on absurdity. And while we can test it and review it all the live long day, no one really does a feature-packed deep dive like Doug DeMuro. So let\u2019s see what he was able to find.<\/p>\n<p>During our podcast with DeMuro awhile back, I asked him how he find all of the obscure quirks and features of the cars in his videos. He says he spends a good few hours with the car before shooting each video, really digging through the car. Well, it must have taken him five hours in the BMW i7 because there\u2019s just so much stuff to dig through. Just the back seat alone is packed with countless interesting features and details. It\u2019s the most Doug car ever.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most interesting features about the new 7 Series in general, be it the i7 or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/11\/06\/2023-bmw-760i-review-test-drive\/\">760i<\/a>, is the power door function. All four doors on the BMW 7 Series are automatic and can open and close on their own, with the push of a button. However, it goes a few steps further than that. Not only can they open on their own but they feature sensors to make sure they don\u2019t open into objects. You can also open and close each and every door, as well as all at once, through the voice commands. Just tell the BMW AI assistant to open or close the doors and it will. It\u2019s awesome.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-438619\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"bmw i7 oxide grey 52 830x553\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of bmw i7 oxide grey 52 830x553\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-438619\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20553%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"bmw i7 oxide grey 52 830x553\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bmw-i7-oxide-grey-52.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of bmw i7 oxide grey 52 830x553\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then there\u2019s the theater screen, which is a massive 31-inch 8k screen that drops down from the ceiling. It\u2019s one of the craziest things I\u2019ve ever seen in a production car and, while it does have some drawbacks (namely the fact that it blocks out the rearview mirror), it\u2019s pretty spectacular. There are also screens in the rear door panels to control the main theater screen, as well as the rear climate controls. So you have a screen to control a screen. It\u2019s like a Russian nesting doll of technological snobbery.<\/p>\n<p>There are so many more strange and interesting and fantastic features about the BMW i7 that most people don\u2019t have the patience to dig through but Doug DeMuro does so check this video otu.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The 2023 BMW i7 Is an Amazing Ultra-Luxury $130,000 Electric Sedan\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MtlhU0wu5x0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\">[embedded content]<\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ADVERTISEMENT The BMW i7 is the most technologically advanced car the brand has ever made and it\u2019s not even close.
