DESIGN

BMW 7 Series

The BMW 7 Series is an engineering masterpiece. After all, it’s BMW’s flagship luxury sedan and needs the style to show for it. Beyond being a head-turner for BMW, it can also be your creation. This model is customizable inside and out, allowing you the luxury of exclusivity.

A Bespoke Experience

The vehicle you drive says a lot about your personality. Driving a BMW 7 Series gives the first impression that you have a refined, sophisticated palate. Black-trimmed window accents and available bi-color 21-inch multi-spoke wheels, especially when paired with the timeless Alpine White hue, make the 7 Series look ready for a black-tie event any time of day.

If formal events aren’t your everyday aesthetic, the BMW 7 Series offers plenty of other designs, including half a dozen wheel options and 17 paint options. Drivers wishing to accentuate every curve and detail of the 7 Series can opt for one of these bold hues:

  • Tanzanite Blue II
  • Boston Green
  • Wildberry
  • Frozen Tanzanite Blue
  • Aventurin Red

Step inside the BMW 7 Series and enter a space that’s uniquely yours. To begin the customization process, choose from three upholstery options: Veganza, Extended Merino Leather, or Full Merino Leather. Each textile is available in rich shades of black and brown or in multi-colored options. You can fully indulge your senses in these supple fabrics.

VIP Treatment Awaits

The BMW 7 Series turns heads from the start, its kidney grille anchoring an expressive front end. Add the available illuminated grille and Crystal Headlights to bring a striking glow to every drive. For the ultimate VIP experience, consider upgrading to include the Executive Package. When equipped, your 7 Series transforms into a chauffeur, thanks to celebrity-inspired features like:

  • Automatic Doors: Press a button on the key fob and watch the front door open upon your arrival. Using the BMW Interaction Bar, the doors can open when you reach your destination, impressing even the most discerning colleague.
  • Parking Assistant Professional: Store parking maneuvers into the advanced BMW Operating System 8.5, then perform remote parking maneuvers using the My BMW App.
  • Driving Assistant Plus: Let your sedan assist with the commute, using mild autonomous capabilities to adjust speed and lane positioning.

Every 7 Series comes standard with LED Carpet Lights that welcome you as you approach and the Panoramic Sky Lounge LED Roof. Look up and admire gorgeous skyward views. Its multi-color illumination will emit a soft glow to match your mood.

PERFORMANCE

BMW 7 Series

The BMW 7 Series is the Ultimate Driving Machine™. It features several robust engines and dynamic drivetrains, producing an addictive experience you'll constantly crave.

Power on Your Terms

No two drivers are the same. Some may expect instant results, while others crave balance. That's why the BMW 7 Series features three distinctive trim levels, each with its own powertrain. No matter which of the two high-powered gas engines you choose, you'll experience mastery in performance:

3.0L BMW TwinPower Turbo
4.4L BMW TwinPower Turbo V8
Horsepower375 HP536 HP
Acceleration (0-60 MPH)4.9 - 5.2 sec.4.1 sec.

Rear-wheel drive comes standard with this sedan; however, the innovative xDrive all-wheel drive system is available. This system offers more grip and is more responsive on wet, slick surfaces.

The 7 Series encourages you to play an active role in your commute with Manual Shift Mode and steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters that let you take full control of gear changes. Sport Mode and Launch Mode are also included, each of which gives your vehicle the boost to pass on the highway or experience a flawless start from the get-go.

Lean, Mean, Green Machine

Choosing a new car is a long-term investment for you, your family, and the planet. Those who wish to support a greener future should take the wheel of the BMW 7 Series 750e. This plug-in hybrid variation of the flagship sedan takes everything you love about the gas-powered 7 Series and adds a rechargeable electric motor.

With two power sources adding German-engineering excellence to your ride—a 3.0L BMW TwinPower Turbo engine and an integrated electric motor— you’ll experience a boost in energy while reducing your carbon footprint:

  • Horsepower: 483 HP
  • Acceleration (0-60 MPH): 4.6 sec.

The plug-in hybrid trim is standardly paired with all-wheel drive and the same 8-speed transmission. Intelligent drive modes let you choose your energy source. For local trips, enable electric-only mode, in which you can travel an EPA-estimated electric range of 36 miles.* Maximizing the driving range, you can mix electric and gas energy on longer trips.

INNOVATION

BMW 7 Series

BMW is no stranger to innovation. With the BMW 7 Series, you can expect no shortage of cutting-edge technology. The overall driving experience is prioritized throughout the space. Take your seat in this luxury sedan; it doesn’t matter which one. There’s awe-inspiring technology for everyone to enjoy.

Tactile and Intuitive

BMW is known to examine what's working and question how it can improve. The proof is with the BMW Curved Display. Mounted on the dash of the BMW 7 Series, this display infuses entertainment and information into one panoramic view. The display measures more than 27 inches, eliminates the need to toggle through layers of menus, and can reduce eyestrain because of its inventive shape.

Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ allow you to pair your smartphone to the sedan and play your preferred entertainment. Your morning commute is the perfect time to catch up on your favorite podcast or listen to a chapter of your book club read. Wireless charging also comes standard to help keep the cabin organized.

The main display works with BMW's most innovative operating system: iDrive 8.5. It features a fresh design and improved voice and touch commands, including the BMW Interaction Bar. This bar puts functionality at your fingertips. Beyond modifying cabin settings, this bar can change colors based on your selected hue.

Welcome to the Lounge

As mentioned, every seat inside the BMW 7 Series can be considered the best. Heated seats are standard in both rows and make it easy to relax tense muscles after a challenging day at the office. Front-seat upgrades include optional ventilated and massaging capabilities for the ultimate experience.

The second row matches these features with the optional Luxury Rear Seating Package. When equipped, it adds these features:

  • Multifunction ergonomic settings
  • Ventilated micro-perforated leather
  • 8 massage programs, including 2 Vitality Programs

The front row has the BMW Curved Display, but the rear seats have the optional 31.3-inch BMW Theatre Screen with 8K resolution, 5G streaming, and Amazon Fire 4K connectivity. With this feature, the rear seats become a space to help pass the time and an executive lounge for private meetings.

Make the experience even more magical with the Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System, which features unparalleled 4D audio through 40 speakers.
