German automobile giant BMW, which managed to enchant many of us with its aggressive looking models, introduced its brand new sedan model, which does not look like the most BMW today. The new model is the seventh generation of the BMW 7 Series. Moreover, the new model made history as the most important 7 Series generation to date.
BMW presented not just one model, but three models in the new 7 Series. The model, which was introduced alongside the 2023 gasoline 7 Series and a first in the 7 series, was the electric model of the series, the BMW i7. While BMW lovers were offered both a huge V8 engine and an electric engine option at the same time, the design of the new model was unlike any BMW.
Spaceship-like design:
The new BMW 7 series includes significant changes inside and out. In the exterior design of the vehicle, especially the thinning of the headlights and the more angular structure of the vehicle draw attention, while these design lines add an aggressiveness to the vehicle that allows those who see the car on the road to give way.
When we get inside the BMW, we come across a complete spaceship. While there is a long screen positioned according to the driver on the front, it can be seen that the steering wheel has also been redesigned. But since the owner of this vehicle will not spend much time in this seat, let’s start to talk about the rear directly.
Yes, your eyes are not deceiving you. There is a huge screen hanging from the ceiling at the rear of the vehicle! In addition to this screen, the legroom of the rear seats is astounding. In addition, the person sitting in the back seat can even turn their seat into a bed with foot supports. There are touch screens on the doors where air conditioning and seat controls can be made.
So what will be offered under the hood?
The new model of the 7 Series, which includes BMW’s high-end luxury cars, came with three different engine options in the same chassis. Two of these options were the gasoline engine, the six-cylinder model and the powerful V8 model, which will be included in the vehicle’s starter package, while the other was the electric motor.
According to the shared information, the engine to be included in the BMW 740i will be a turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine. In addition to this engine, the vehicle will also have a 48-volt hybrid engine. The engine will deliver a total of 375 horsepower to the vehicle.
The BMW 760i xDrive model, which will be the father of gasoline models, will feature a twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 engine. The 760i, which will carry the same hybrid engine, will be able to produce a total of 536 horsepower. Both vehicles will feature the same eight-speed automatic transmission.
The electric model, the BMW i7 xDrive60, will include two electric motors. The vehicle, which includes a 101.7 kilowatt-hour battery, will be able to produce a total of 536 horsepower. According to BMW’s calculations, the vehicle will have a range of 480 kilometers on a single charge.
New BMW 7 Series prices:
The new BMW 7 Series, which is expected to be delivered in November this year, will have prices starting at $94,295. While the V8-powered model of the vehicle will carry a price tag of $ 114,995, the 760i xDrive, the electric i7 will be sold for $ 120,295.
