New BMW M7 - it'll blow your mind

.............................................................

It looks like a new BMW 7 Series is in the works… And an all-electric i7 is on the way, too!

How do we know this? Well, for starters, we’ve got our hands on some spy shots that show a petrol-powered 7 Series while it’s being tested. Not only that, but BMW has even released official footage of a prototype i7 in testing, so you can bet that’s not too far off, either!

That’s not all though - we have our suspicions that either an M7 or i7M could also be in the works! But which will it be? Well given the recent unveiling of the hybrid XM concept, we think there’s a strong chance a hybrid 7 Series could be on the way. And if it mirrors what the XM was packing, that means we’ll see a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 coupled with an electric motor to produce 750hp!

So which would you prefer, the 7 Series, or an i7? For a sneak peek at what they both may look like, and to find out everything you need to know, stick with Mat for this all-new video!

What's the greatest BMW of all time?

[nirmaljustin]

Mercedes and audi must be very proud of bmw's design department

[bharadwajr]

It's not mind-blowing, it's eye blowing

BMW really should get to the Level 5 autonomous vehicles soon because those cars would only blind person buy.

Now all of a sudden the 4 series looks good. 🙏

How do designers look at this and say ‘yes’, I think people will love the look at this. This thing makes an S - Class and A8 look like an oil painting.

How “mood rooms” are used by designers to get inspiration for car design according to Top Gear;

Jet Fighters, Exotic Animals, Moustaches etc



BMW Mood Room: Fiat Multipla

[GrayHuska]

The i8 was such a missed opportunity - I always said it should have been a hybrid with an BMW M inline six or V8 as the main motor. Would have been a real supercar.

[Zertyup]

I could hardly think about a M7 without a V12 in it...

[DrBreezeAir]

Not being a BMW fan anymore is really liberating.

[highvibin]

You know your design team has failed when your best compliment is it doesn't look that bad

[florianhaffner]

BMW should swap out the whole design department. Their current goal is obviously to make polarizing designs rather than beautiful designs and I am sick of it

[schraf]

The fact the guys from car wow predicted it so good blows my miend

[mattardyantoriyadi]

BMW Designer : "How much ugliness do you guys want?"
BMW Corporate : "YES"
And voila.. the rival of the fiat multipla has been born. But the annoying thing is, people would still buy that because it's a BMW and not a fiat.

[bonzobonanza]

BMW makes some odd decisions when it comes to design...

[toao_brotherhood]

wow now we know how it looks like the "thing" in the video looks beautiful

[skatman]

BMW really need to get a new designer. The front of these cars are utterly disgusting.

[nirmaljustin]

"They're not gonna get rid of the 7 series name"
They're only gonna destroy it

[CrossCuntyRic]

It makes Lexus designs more desirable in comparison.

[neilhewitt]

Handy hint BMW, keep the camouflage. It looks a million times better. Better still, employ the camo designer to style the cars in future. The front actually looks even worse than the IX, and I didn't think that was possible.
