BMW has released teaser images of the upcoming all-electric BMW i7 that is due to debut in 2022.
Shown in camouflage and testing in sub-zero conditions in Sweden, the BMW i7 will be the all-electric version of BMW’s luxury saloon, the BMW 7 series.
The upcoming BMW 7 series will be available with either a petrol engine (ICE), a hybrid powertrain, or an all-electric powertrain.
Driving dynamics testing are conducted on the BMW i7 in Arjeplog, Sweden, perfecting the steering, braking, and suspension systems
The upcoming BMW 7 series aims to raise the “balance between sportiness and ride comfort so typical of the brand’s luxury sedans” to the next level.
This also includes performance-oriented tuning of the wheel suspension, springs, dampers and various regulating systems to match the various different drive types.
Other than driving dynamics, a matter of concern with the upcoming BMW i7 is its endurance as an all-electric car in sub-zero temperatures.
The BMW i7’s electric drive, high-voltage battery, power electronics and charging technology all originate from the fifth generation of BMW eDrive technology, which already provides for sustainable driving pleasure in the BMW iX.
The BMW i7 is based on the same vehicle concept as all further model variants of the BMW 7 Series. This integrated development also guarantees locally emission-free driving with the characteristic combination of both sporty and comfort-oriented handling properties along with the exclusive spaciousness of a BMW luxury sedan.
