BMW will launch the i7 sedan in 2022
- The new range of BMW electric cars is being developped gradually. After the i3 launched in 2013, which was the brand's first mid-series electric car, the iX3 SUV appeared in 2020, then the iX SUV in 2021 then the i4 sedan derived from the new 4 Series. These cars start at 40,000 euros for the i3 sedan, 60,000 euros for the i4 sedan, 70,000 euros for the iX 3 SUV, 85,000 euros for the iXSUV. High prices, but the carmaker thinks there are customers who want to acquire an even more expensive electric car, sold well over 100,000 euros. This is why BMW will launch the future i7 sedan in 2022.
- It is to remind that a Mercedes EQS is marketed from 127,000 euros to 153,000 euros depending on the version. This is the price area imagined for the future battery electric Jaguars launched in 2025. BMW wants to be part of this elite market with the future i7 sedan, which is expected to exceed 120,000 euros.
- The BMW i7 will be a large sedan based on the future 7 Series (F-segment) also scheduled for 2022. It will therefore be the direct competitor of the Mercedes EQS launched in 2021 which is in the same segment as the Mercedes S Class (F-segment). The future i7 produced in Dingolfing (Germany) will be based on the CLAR platform of the BMW 3 Series, 4 Series, 5 Series, 7 Series, iX and i4.
- The power output of the i7 is expected to reach 322 hp in the four-wheel drive version, and its battery will have a capacity of 71 kWh or 105 kWh. The range would be 400 km or 600 km depending on the battery pack size.
