Comparison: Boot space BMW i7 vs. competitors 2025

As a fully electric offering in the luxury saloon segment, the BMW i7 is a fairly recent model, introduced in 2022. Therefore, we only have data regarding the current generation (i7 G70, 2022-present) with its 500-liter boot capacity. Being the first of its lineage, it could very well be the benchmark for future i7 generations, where boot space size will inevitably be under constant scrutiny. Expect riveting stories about boots, bags, and backpacks in the years to come.

In comparison to other BMW models, the i7 provides a rather impressive trunk size. It stacks up favorably, equaling models like the BMW 3-series Touring, BMW iX, and the BMW 3-series M3 Touring with their 500-liter capacities. It bests other popular models like the BMW X1 (540 liters) and the BMW 3-series Limousine (480 liters). However, it falls short on boot space when compared to some models in the BMW family, such as the BMW X7 with a mammoth 750-liter trunk capacity.

Looking at the i7's rivals, boot space is a mixed bag. It trumps the Mercedes-Benz EQE (430 liters), Genesis G80 (354 liters), and even the much more spacious Mercedes-Benz S-Klasse (350 liters). However, it doesn't quite measure up against the Lexus LS (480 liters) and falls short of boot-space titans like the Lucid Air (627 liters) and Audi A8 (505 liters). Despite the variability among competitors, the BMW i7 still maintains a respectable boot space, making it an attractive option for those who need roominess without making a commitment to a cavernous SUV-like trunk.
