2023 bmw with tv screen1/26/2024 The i7 we pored over in the studio ran on HL (heavy load, or 1,875 pounds per tire) 285/35 R21 and 255/40 R21 Bridgestones and aero alloy wheels to eke out more EV range. Both the i7 and the 760i both get integral active steering, which turns the rear wheels up to 3.5° in either direction. The standard footprint for the enormous new 7 Series is a quad set of 19-inch alloy wheels, though 20- and 21-inch wheels and tires are optional. In late 2023, the two mild-hybrid options will be joined by the full-hybrid 750e, which will bow earlier in Europe. With a little more power and significantly less weight, the V8 will be a little faster than the i7, but BMW says the dynamic experience will be very similar. Though gradually transitioning to EVs, BMW says American demand for V8s is still very strong, and that it will continue building combustion engines into the 2030s. The i7 may steal the show, but the company has also equipped the 760i xDrive with a brand new 4.4-liter V8 packing 536 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque. The i7 doesn’t flaunt its EV powertrain with swoopy styling, and apart from some delete-option blue trims and a blue ring around the BMW badge on the nose and tail, it’s nearly identical to its gas-engine companions. The range will start with the 740i, powered by a refreshed 3.0-liter inline-six with mild-hybrid assist with 375 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, but the big news is a new V8. While Europe and Asia (the 7 Series is a big seller in China) will get an array of different gas and diesel powertrains, American buyers can expect only two, at least at first. ![]() New 7s will come with 3 years of free charging at Electrify America stations.īut BMW won’t stop there, with the xDrive60 i7’s 101.7kWh lithium-ion battery pack scheduled to be shared in 2023 by the most powerful BMW ever made, with “more than” 600 horsepower over 700 pound-feet of torque driving the heavy-hitting i7 M70 xDrive EV. BMW also insists the i7 xDrive60 can charge at up to 195kW from a direct-current charger, giving it 80 miles of range in 10 minutes. Still, BMW says it’ll be good for a 4.5-second zero-to-60 sprint.īMW says the car will deliver 390 miles of WLTP-measured range, and the company is targeting an EPA range of around 300 miles. It’s also heavy, at 5,917 pounds, almost a half-ton more than the V8 760 thanks to its big battery pack. The initial i7 xDrive60 produces a combined 563 horsepower and 549 pound-feet of torque. This sound design was composed by Hans Zimmer, famous for the soundtrack of Gladiator and the Blade Runner 2049: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.As we learned from our recent prototype drive, the i7 is very quick, but now we have official numbers. Intensity and tone vary with acceleration and road conditions. ![]() ![]() Although there are no real melodies, the different sounds make driving a pleasurable experience. IconicSounds Electric: sound by Hans Zimmerįor those who enjoy dynamic driving, the BMW IconicSounds Electric mode provides a specific sound signature. This configuration is very practical, allowing the driver to continue listening to their music while the passengers enjoy the “car-cinema” system in the back. This connection is possible thanks to the integrated mini-jack ports or via Bluetooth. When passengers want to enjoy the soundtrack of the current movie or series in privacy, it is possible to connect two headsets to the screen. The sound of the engine being almost imperceptible, the music fills the entire cabin, offering total immersion. BMW i7: speaker or headphone listening experience The Bowers & Wilkins audio system in the BMW i7 adapts the sound to your preferences with different presets: Studio, Concert, On Stage, Rear.
