Next month, BMW will present its all-electric model, the 2023 BMW i7. The car has been tested in the Arctic Circle and southern Europe, and now the final tests are taking place in the wind tunnel and the streets of Germany. Along with it, BMW will also present the new 7 Series, which is powered by an internal combustion engine.
So far, only spy photos have appeared, based on which we could see that the car was covered with camouflage. The front part will be adorned with light elements made of exclusive crystal glass and illuminated contour of the kidney grille, which will give the car a modern look. Knowing the commitment of BMW engineers and employees, we can expect the best possible solutions when it comes to aerodynamics and comfort.
The interior of the i7 will be equipped with a curved display, a newly developed panoramic glass roof Sky Lounge, light and functional strips on the instrument panel and doors that will provide better ambient lighting, while the rear will feature a 31-inch 8k resolution screen.
The company is still hiding data on the performance of the electric sedan, but they have revealed that the i7 will be the most powerful version of the 7 Series. “The all-electric BMW i7 is also the most powerful BMW 7 Series. It combines the best driving experience with the ultimate digital experience. This makes it the ideal vehicle for forward-thinking, responsible decision-makers and avant-garde pioneers, ”said Frank Weber, Member of the Board of Management of BMW AG Development. This means that the electric motors will produce more power than the 6.6-liter V12 engine from the M760i.
It will use the CLAR platform and will be equipped with a 105.2 kWh battery set, which will provide a range of 392 miles (630 km) on a single charge.
The order book for the new generation 7 Series and all-electric i7 will open in the second half of the year.
