The 2016 BMW 7 Series was revealed officially to the Internet audience before its commercial debut later this year. The headline for the new 7 Series is the i Series inspired Carbon Core tech, which essentially uses generous amount of cabonfibre to create the passenger cell. The rest of the chassis is reinforced using steel bits and the subframes, bonnet, boot lid and doors use aluminium. The result is a 90kg weight reduction for the new 7 Series compared to the outgoing model.
The 750 Li is the flagship with a 4.4-litre V8 petrol that features BMW’s twin-scroll turbocharging to produce 450PS of power which can help the car gain 100kmph from standstill in 4.3s. The 2015 BMW 7 Series is expected to go on sale globally by the end of 2015 and we expect the car to be revealed to the Indian audience at the 2016 Auto Expo.
