"At launch, the i7 will be available in 50 xDrive and 60 xDrive strengths, with dual-motor powertrains tuned for 449 hp and 536 hp, respectively. BMW reckons the i7 60 xDrive will do zero to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds, while the 50 xDrive will do the same in 5.3 seconds."
"BMW continues to offer adaptive regenerative braking that varies the level of regen based on navigation data and the speed of cars ahead, as well as a coasting feature for increased efficiency at highway speeds. Drivers can also manually select low, medium, and high settings."
"Pricing increases by just $500 for the 740 and 740 xDrive, which start at $101,350 and $104,350, respectively. The i7 models see bigger increases, but the $106,200 starting price for the i7 50 xDrive and $126,250 starting price for the i7 60 xDrive probably won't trouble the target audience."
The BMW i7 will launch with two variants: the 50 xDrive and 60 xDrive, delivering 449 hp and 536 hp, respectively. The 50 xDrive accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds, while the 60 xDrive achieves it in 4.6 seconds. Adaptive regenerative braking adjusts based on navigation and traffic. The 740 and 740 xDrive feature a turbocharged inline-six engine, with the 740 xDrive reaching 0 to 60 mph in under five seconds. Pricing for the 740 starts at $101,350, while the i7 begins at $106,200, targeting affluent customers with significant features and performance.
