BMW's EV lineup expands with new AWD and RWD options for i4 and i7 models.
BMW has announced three new EVs for its summer 2023 lineup, including the i4 xDrive 40, the single-motor i7 eDrive50, and the hybrid 750e xDrive. The automaker has also revealed an updated infotainment operating system for some models. The i4 xDrive40 is an all-wheel-drive, 396-horsepower variant of the popular Gran Coupe, with an estimated 307-mile range. The i7 eDrive50 is a rear-wheel-drive model with a single GEN5 motor, while the 750e xDrive combines a 308-horsepower six-cylinder internal combustion engine with a 194-horsepower electric motor. The infotainment system, BMW Operating System 8.5, uses a "zero-layer principle" to keep all relevant controls and information on a single level.
