  • With the industry continuing to move toward full electric vehicles, the #BMW7Series also gets the EV treatment with the first-ever #BMWi7 for 2023! The #i7xDrive60 is the first model in the range with #BMW also promising a higher performance #i7 M70 later in the model year. With over 300 miles of range and an interior that is flagship worthy in terms of space, tech, and materials, this flagship luxury EV should give rivals from Audi, Tesla, Mercedes, and Porsche a run for its money.

    Happy Monday evening guys! Hope you all had a great weekend! The fully electric BMW i7 may be polarizing to look at, but it has an interior and driving feel that will truly wow most buyers. Just be sure to get one with a good wheel/tire combo as you can see, this one with these smaller 19" winter wheels makes this car look rather unfortunate.

    The previous generation G12 7 Series looked even better than this G70 generation. Like what is that front end? I mean.... I get that BMW is trying to make it looks modern, but, it really doesn't have the presence that the previous G12 generation had to me at least. And God knows that the E38 7 Series is the best one out of them all, in terms of looks and presence. You look at this and you look at the E38 7 Series, you wonder what has happened to the design team over at BMW.

      I think they want to appeal to a new demographic, or start a new signature look for their cars. Whatever it is it definitely isn't the same team that designed the M3 or literally any other decent BMW ever.

    BMW has always done a good quality and well designed interior I feel, I just don’t think I can get over the new exterior design, though. If I drove a car with this price tag I want to be able to enjoy looking at it from the outside, too

    Man, BMWs used to be so classic and beautiful looking, especially the 7 series of old, they are now consistently among the most awkward, overwrought and hideous cars out there. Other than a couple of 4 and 2 series coupes which certainly will be redesigned to this new design language, the marque has lost its way.

    • @TonyKimtheamusementparkfan
      @TonyKimtheamusementparkfan ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah we are far from the days of the design team who designed things like the E38 7 Series, the E36, E46, and E90 3 series, the E39 5 series, the F82 4 Series, the previous generation 2 Series. All those cars, phenomenal in terms of looks and presence. Anyone who drives any of those older BMWs that I mentioned still looks good in them today. My only real favourite modern BMW are like the G20 3 Series (not the G80 M3) and the current G30 5 Series (which includes the F90 M5).

    The stated range for these vehicles are submitted to EPA by the OEMs with OEM's using their own testing methods. For example, Tesla in real life 70 mph highway testing, consistently does less range than other EVs with far lower stated range. The BMW i7 actual range is more than any Tesla models, including Tesla's longest stated range -Model S long range.

    You know I have to comment, right?
    RR cars' grill were always a one unit element of their vehicles design to invoke status and opulence.
    BMW kidney grill inspired width for easing air to cool the engine, not unlike nostrils you find in nature, but the brand decided to grow something else with this new look.
    I believe those two brands working together, sharing luxury markets should still allow buyers to choose between different styles reflecting their separate histories in design and engineering.
    Someone should be able to purchase a Phantom and an i7 without thinking one of them is the cheaper daily driver vs the real deal. Each is its own animal.

    That interior is really gorgeous and the tech/features are insanely impressive. My jaw dropped when I saw the night shots of the interior lighting, it’s beautiful, definitely the best ambient lighting I have seen. I kinda like the S Class interior design more, and I still think I prefer the EQS exterior. The exterior in my opinion is pretty off putting, and the rear is pretty bland, and I am usually very open to all designs. The front is super polarizing and the rear is bland. I do agree that a sportier trim line would fit the styling better, but in the other review of the gas model the black accents are still borderline ugly. Great review as always!
