What should I look for when buying a used BMW 7 Series?

Across all model years, accident-free inventory is solid at 75.4% — always verify the vehicle history report.

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2022 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, traffic sign recognition, adaptive headlamps, parking sensors, safe exit warning, lane-departure warning, and lane-keep assist
• Infotainment: a massive curved-screen display that melds a 12.3-inch driver's screen with a 14.9-inch infotainment display, plus Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Fuel efficiency: the EPA rates the 750e at 65 MPGe (electric) and 25 mpg (gas) combined, and the 740i and 760i are also quite efficient, delivering 28 mpg (or 27 with AWD) and 20 mpg combined, respectively

Which BMW 7 Series trim should I buy?

The 2024 BMW 7 Series offers these trims:

• 740i: the entry point, with a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, rear-wheel drive, and the best-value position in the lineup
• 740i xDrive: adds all-wheel drive and is called out as the best value trim
• 750e xDrive: adds plug-in hybrid power, 483 hp, 516 lb-ft of torque, and the ability to cover short trips on electric power
• 760i: adds the twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8, standard AWD, and the most vigorous driving experience, along with luxury options such as two-tone paint or Cashmere wool interior

What BMW 7 Series do most buyers choose?

The BMW 7 Series years with the most listings are 2023, 2022, and 2024.

Higher-volume years usually give you more choices on trim, mileage, and condition, which makes it easier to compare listings and find a setup that fits your budget. They also tend to be the years shoppers cross-shop most often, so pricing and deal availability are easier to gauge.

What is the BMW 7 Series's resale value?

Most model years are down by double digits, which creates attractive entry points for used buyers. The steepest drops are concentrated in the newer years, while the older generations show smaller declines. That pattern suggests you can find stronger value in recent used examples without giving up the flagship-sedan experience.

The 2014, 2015, and 2018 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
