The BMW i7 lands on the Spanish market, and this will be its price

Last spring BMW presented the new 7 Series, the seventh generation of its most luxurious model, which came with major changes, not only in terms of technology thanks to the huge leap over the outgoing generation, but also adapting to new forms of mobility by arriving alongside a fully electric version, the i7.

The BMW i7, like its combustion-engined siblings, features a striking design that will undoubtedly turn heads wherever it goes. Straight lines are the stars, even on the exterior, where we see a front dominated by the enormous front grille flanked by a beautiful lighting unit divided into two levels. From the side is where we can best appreciate its sheer size, 5,400 mm in length no less, leading to a refined and exquisite rear with a lighting unit that extends inward.

Inside, as expected, the BMW i7 will do everything possible to make its occupants feel surrounded by luxury and at home, something we could almost say literally if you equip the BMW Theatre Screen, a 31.3-inch 8K display that unfolds from the ceiling. It won’t be the only one: the dashboard features the BMW Curved Display, which integrates the instrument cluster and infotainment system along with other functions, as most buttons disappear to make way for a minimalist design with horizontal lines.

The new BMW i7, in addition to its entry-level trim, will be available in M Sport and M Sport Pro trims. Nevertheless, even the entry-level trim comes with very interesting equipment, as you can see below:

• Soft-close doors
• Panoramic glass roof (no opening function)
• Adaptive LED headlights with high-beam assist
• LED rear lights
• Automatic tailgate operation
• Comfort access

Mechanically, the BMW i7 arrives on the Spanish market initially in the xDrive60 version, consisting of two electric motors producing 258 CV for the front axle and 313 CV for the rear axle, achieving a combined system output of 544 CV together with 745 Nm of torque, enough to accelerate this beast, which exceeds 2.6 tonnes, to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds. It features a 101.7 kWh battery, allowing a maximum range of 625 km under the WLTP test cycle. In early 2023 the i7 M70 version with 660 CV will arrive.

The new BMW i7 is now available on the Spanish market, with a price for our country starting at 137,900 euros. It is worth noting that despite being electric and carrying the DGT’s CERO label, the new BMW i7 cannot benefit from the MOVES III Plan, as it exceeds the stipulated limit of 45,000 euros excluding VAT to qualify for the aid.
