BMW rolls out its next‑generation 7 Series in 2027, swapping the traditional 740 and 750e for electric‑centric models. The new lineup launches with two i7 variants: a 50 xDrive twin‑motor sedan and a 60 xDrive twin‑motor, powered by 449 hp and 487 hp respectively. Acceleration drops to 4.6 and 5.3 seconds and a modest 20‑year warranty for customers in the market.

Both i7s feature adaptive regenerative braking that tailors regen to traffic data and a coasting mode for highway efficiency, while drivers may manually set low, medium, or high regen levels. BMW also keeps the 740 and 740 xDrive inline‑six family, delivering 394 hp and 398 lb‑ft, with the xDrive version under five seconds to 60 mph in the U.S. market.

The plug‑in hybrid 750e xDrive retains the 483 hp rating and 18.7 kWh battery, offering an EPA‑rated 34‑mile electric range before switching to the 3.0‑liter turbo inline‑six. Its 0‑60 time matches the i7 60 xDrive at 4.6 seconds, proving that the hybrid can compete with pure electric rivals while maintaining a familiar combustion base for luxury buyers seeking flexibility today.

Pricing shifts are modest: the 740 and 740 xDrive start at $101,350 and $104,350, while the i7 50 xDrive launches at $106,200 and the i7 60 xDrive at $126,250, all including a $1,550 destination fee. U.S. deliveries should begin before year‑end, with the 750e xDrive arriving in 2027 and a final price set later for customers awaiting in the long‑term strategy.
