Test drove it and even tried out putting car seat there. The recline doesn't work well with the center car seat in place but I think a different car seat may work better.
So is the rear pkg a nice to have? Would you recommend? Feel like without it the enormous legroom is a bit wasted since you can't lay more flat. Meanwhile, i see most 740 doesn't come with it. Wonder why. Maybe fleet use doesn't care?
An extended question is whether 7 series will make a great family car. I have a 2022 X5 45e already so half foot into the EV world. I look at all the luxury brands out there and don't find something more luxurious roomy while sporty like the 7 in the sedan world. |
I have the package in my 750i. It’s awesome because you can control basically everything but the steering from the pad. Very cool. Having said that….not sure its a feature that is the most kid friendly. Extra room back there and harness holds are great. Hope you like it!
