What It's Like To Drive A '16 BMW 750i! | POV Drive 

The 7 series is on another level. the more i see it the more i love it

( 0:55 ) Based off the reflection in the tablet, seeing you film must be a sight to see.

You didn't do the gestures in the right place. You did it way up by the screen and thats not where the sensors are. That's why it didn't work.

Parker, you noob, move you hand down lower, that's where the sensor is for the motion controls lol

A8 and LS have to step their game up now!

You guys should look at the A8/S8 as well.

I've had more luck just moving my finger around than moving my entire hand, just make the shapes with as little hand motion as possible. I got a chance to ride in one at a local auto show and tried it out there.

$250 option for that key seems cheap. A replacement proximity key for my Hyundai Veracruz was $350. I got to go to a release event for this car. Very different then any other driving demo I've done. Champagne and Sushi after. What an amazing car. I loved the auto lane correction. I hadn't got to drive a car with that before. Probably looked like a drunk though the way it allows you to wander and then jerk the wheel back to center. I went for about 10 miles on the freeway doing about 80 mph and never touched the wheel. It kept giving me warnings, but it kept working.

I have to say the interior is better than the S-Class.

in order to volume up you should use your wrist not your whole arm lmao

Next video is gonna be 's class vs 7series'

The gesture control works, you need to move your fingers exactly under the mirror.

Please beathe more into the mic next time. I didn't get annoyed enough throughout this video.

You're the best youtuber!

Dude that's awesome, I didn't know you went to Genesis, my brother plays basket ball there.

I love you guys for posting this. This is one of the few videos on this car. Hopefully there's a review coming for this car!!!

7:20, of course it's a sports car! Or at least extremely sporty. O-60 in 4.3 seconds. I bet it corners pretty well with good tires so there you go.

Love this car. BMW went above and beyond with it. Good night S-Class, you won't be needed anymore. Oh and, BMW's are one of the highest rated brands by Consumer Reports while they do not recommend a single Mercedes product.

I think with these big luxury cars you should do 'POV Rides' and just have a chauffeur drive you around while you're in the backseat :-).

New Series called Revisit. Reviewing vehicles several years later, how they held up, current market values and should you get one

this is the iPhone of cars.

Its faster, more fuel efficient, better equipped, and much cheaper than an s550. Good job BMW.

that key worth 250$ for shure because you can turn on the car and heat it in winter or cool it in summer before you enter the car ..also there is self park for non US models

A big car like that should not be a 4 second car but it is, so this car is a steal in the ALL department

Just drove one 500 miles over 3 days (Turo rental with 55k). Had sport package. Overall a cool car. Being a car guy and reading/watching/listening to car reviews constantly, I must say I was a little let down by the car. The positives, a lot of features, interior lighting schemes, air ride, massaging seats, power everything, automatic everything etc. Relatively fuel efficient for what it is, and large interior space. Also leather quality seemed much better than the leather in the Japanese cars I'm used to buying. The cons- too complicated. Gotta use i-drive for a lot of stuff and it's menu after menu. Also, power is good but the sense of speed is not really exciting doesn't feel like 440hp, feels like 300 too me. The reality is you really are hauling, just cant sense it all the time. When you mash the throttle you just see the cars behind you disappearing quickly, but it's so floaty it's anti-climactic. Yet a few times it did surprise me when I hit. Ride was not as smooth as I expected based on some glowing car reviews. The rear of the car feels pinned down but the front bobbs up and down on bumps. It was pretty wallowly/sloppy. Best used as a highway cruiser. For day to day, a bit to floaty for my taste. It's a boat. Ultimately don't think it's worth 90k new, more like 50k.

These are so much better than the S Class. As far as the gestures go, you have to have the radio on to use them

Just so you know, you can get paddles if you want. It's just that they are standard on the S becuase it has a column mounted shifter.

best way to film !!!!!! super good video love it! pov drive + pov reviewing the car (could be more in depth). keep up the good work guys, awesome video!

I'm surprised the car comes equipped with blinkers, I thought bmws didn't have them

love hearing you breathing into the mic, great stuff

It's a full color nav display on HUD... you should navigate it while driving then you will see the different.

I just don't find the styling to be as good as the S class. The 7 series from the inside, especially the center stake really does just look like a 3 or 5 series. Very nice car, but I feel the S class still holds the edge.

The seat belt chime is because of American Law. European cars don't chime at all until you drive away without your belt on. Apparently, we need to be reminded to buckle up every time...

it actually has paddles, my cousin just leased one with the M package. i think its included on the M Package

make more videos about this car review different aspects of it maybe compering it with your s-class a drag race or something

for gesture control, your hand needs to be right above the gear selector

i want that keyfob i wonder if one could rid something similar with a small tftlcd and a mini arduino and a 3d printed housing?

As for the volume controling with your finger, you have to move your finger under your rear mirror where the sensor is :))

I can't wait to see the M760Li

bmw on another fckin level shit looks futuristic af

Your hands were too high for the volume to work. BMW did this so people outside the car wont be able to see that you are making gestures (at them).

First!

1:04 that reflection tho

Man I hate cars today. What happened to cars like E36 and 46. sure i own a 46 but not many do. I like the very rough edges on cars. today it is all about that windflow and crap

do more videos on your Gallardo,it looks and sounds so good

I love BMW, simply love them! But what scares me is all this technology going into cars; I get it though, just evolutionary awesomeness, whatever. But as one car journalist put it, these cars arent viable outside there warranties, or leases. Which is so true. One thing goes wrong with it, youll have to take out a small mortgage to afford the repairs. From an engineering standpoint, brilliant car! But Ill take a F10 M5 :)

This dude is maybe The best in RU-vid auto 🤔💪🏽✌🏽️

fun fact, my aunt and uncle are in the brown Buick rendezvous at 4:45

Drives a BMW, immedeately stops using blinker.

Do you regret buying the S class instead of this ?

I would suggest you to be silent during that type of POVs because your voice covers up all the sounds we would like to listen to like if we were driving. You can make a separate review then or mix it with the pov. Anyway, great videos. Keep it up.

Not a bad price for the keyfob considering that's less than what a majority of keyless transponders cost...

The idrive system is a lot better than what Mercedes comand has to offer, but the merc is more luxurious overall

Is it better overall then your S550 ?

I love POVs ;)

I don't think it should be a little more patient man, it's trying to prevent people from dying in accidents, by getting people to put their seat belts on. I think it's an awesome idea, in my honest opinion, but to each their own. Cheers mate

I would hope with access to this 7 series that you'll compare it to your S Class

YESS MORE BMW!!!! :) GOTTA GET YOUR HANDS ON A M2!! OR EVEN A M4GTS??

I remember seeing you drive up off of regency park st. while I was at work. I work at the culvers you show at the beginning before you turn onto holly rd. me and a couple of buddies were joking about how we were gonna go steal it from you

Use the "scroller" function on the steering wheel for the radio. My 2011 550i is much less complicated and still has the useful functions without the gimmicks. I'm surprised they eliminated the sport plus mode that turns off the traction control. The sport seats are the best. They keep your butt planted while being extremely comfortable. The biggest miss however is the sport steering wheel. Mercedes does a much better job.

Better than a S-class

Best car of bmw

*Breathing Intensifies*

Can you unlock and lock the doors of key battery is dead??? It would suck if you drop that key!!

Yes! My favourite car!

The gesture controls are not working because you have to wave your hand below the hazards and the driver assistant settings (where the sensors are located)

I would have liked to see you test out the "Auto-pilot" feature.

All that wireless control stuff is potentially hackable. But still this is a very interesting vehicle.

The gesture didn't work because you have to do it with your hand a little lower, opposite the Hazard Button.. And yeah the circle radius doesn't have to be that big. Haha!

Soon as you mentioned and I saw the remote is out of battery, I thought "fuck this" - I cant deal with half ass reviews. Bye.

willing to see a coupe version of this car with a v12 engine to compete with the superb S coupe! nice video

The infotainment screen is a touch screen now too

Gesture controls work perfectly on that car, but you don't know how to use it. You did that in front of the navi screen instead in front of climate control. It didn't work to you because the sensors couldn't recognize what you said to them :D

never change the outro song

Brilliant review.

BMW, the ultimate driving machine. Yet "how about we hop into the back seat, because really, that is where you'd want to be spending the majority of your time." heh

You need to get your finger closer to the volume button, and it should volume up :)

R u trading in ur S class for a 750? I think itd be a great choice

If I had the money for this version of the 7 the lack of paddles would be the deal breaker. Extremely disappointing.

i'm good with just a key with a leather end with a jagged piece of medal you put into a small rectangular metal slot and turn. I don't need it to tell me what my oil life is.... I wish BMW would make a manual 7 series...

I'm going to act like I don't like this or need all those features because I'm too broke to afford the vehicle.

the car is too good

You guys should do a q and a video

It was nor fully in sport mode, you should have pull the transmission towards yourself, then "D" turns to "S" on the main screen.

u should of been in the 750LI to be in the back and u went in on the wrong side to be in the back always sit behind the shotgun ;) nice movie tho like always

You're in Grand Blanc !!

I feel what it's like is feeling like getting beat by an EK Hatch on the touge

what POV device did u use? looks great

love this car

very very nice

Nice review, thank youfor the video.

Do you still prefer the benz ?

That's very beautiful car

sometimes it seems like cars these days can get OVERWHELMINGLY nice...like...i might not want to drive this. I think Ill just sit in the back and have my driver drive me around in it

I would definitely go for the S500 (or S550 in the US)

The interior of this car, especially the back seats, reminds me of a dentist's office. Not a very pleasant place to be. Way behind the S-class!

this should be called distracted driving while fucking around with infotainment and breathing into the microphone

Godamn.... i really need one

the place?? where you drove the car... is?

Cool video!
