BMW Revamps the 7 Series for 2027 with Neue Klasse Tech and a Bigger i7 Battery

BMW updates the 7 Series for 2027 with Neue Klasse styling and tech across the lineup: the all‑electric i7 gains cylindrical battery cells that raise usable capacity to 112.5 kWh, pushing EPA range above 350 miles and charging up to 250 kW; the 740/740 xDrive continue with a 3.0‑liter turbo inline‑six (~394 hp) and a 750e xDrive plug‑in hybrid with 483 hp and about 34 miles of electric range; interior tech is upgraded with a Panoramic Drive display, large touchscreens, a rear-seat Theater Screen, and OTA updates, plus more sensors in the grille for Level 2 assist. Availability includes i7 and 740/740 xDrive before year’s end, with the 750e xDrive arriving in 2027; pricing rises modestly for the 740 models and more for the i7 (starting around $101k for the 740 and $106k for the i7 50 xDrive).
