The i7 is repeatedly praised for its ultra-luxurious, tech-rich interior, with reviewers (116 mentions) highlighting expansive, exceptionally comfortable rear seats, premium materials, and spectacular ambient and crystal-style lighting. Many reviewers (32 mentions) also commend the advanced technology suite — large curved displays, augmented-reality navigation, strong driver-assist features, and an impressive rear theater screen with streaming — while the driving experience (40 mentions) is noted for whisper-quiet refinement, supple air suspension, and surprisingly composed handling for a large EV.

Overall, the consensus is that the i7 sets a new bar for luxurious, tech-forward electric limousines, with these impressions appearing across a large majority of the sampled reviews.

Criticisms cluster around practicality and ergonomics, with many reviewers (44 mentions) calling out touch-sensitive controls, glossy trims that attract fingerprints and glare, the lack of a frunk, limited trunk space, and a transmission tunnel that reduces rear-floor flatness. Driving-related complaints (26 mentions) focus on the car's very large size and heavy weight making city driving, parking, and dynamic engagement less satisfying, plus some awkward control placements and limited one-pedal regen convenience. Cost concerns are frequent (21 mentions), as reviewers repeatedly note high base and option prices and the potential for steep depreciation, and several technology and safety nitpicks (12 mentions each) include a complex infotainment learning curve, theater screen obstructing rear visibility, and some menu-driven functions. These issues appeared regularly across the reviews and temper enthusiasm about the i7’s luxury and tech highlights.
