"The i7 gets a new battery pack developed in collaboration with Rimac Technologies, which retains the same external dimensions but now houses sixth-generation cylindrical cells instead of fifth-generation prismatic units. This swap delivers a 20% improvement in energy density and pushes usable capacity up more than 10% to 112.5 kilowatt-hours."
"Charging speed gets a meaningful jump, too. The maximum DC charging rate has increased from 195 kilowatts to 250 kW, and at compatible stations, the i7 can go from 10% to 80% in 28 minutes, with a maximum current flow now standing at 630 amps."
"The broader 7 Series lineup also gets sharper exterior styling and a heavily revised interior with BMW's latest cockpit technologies, marking a significant update beyond just a facelift."
The 2027 BMW 7 Series introduces significant upgrades, including next-generation software and electrical architecture across all trims. The i7 now features a new high-voltage battery with sixth-generation cylindrical cells, improving energy density by 20% and increasing usable capacity to 112.5 kilowatt-hours. The electric version can exceed 350 miles of EPA-estimated range. Charging speed has also improved, with a maximum DC charging rate of 250 kilowatts, allowing the i7 to charge from 10% to 80% in just 28 minutes. The overall design includes sharper styling and advanced cockpit technologies.
