BMW’s new 7 Series goes big on tech, luxury, range and grille

The new BMW 7 Series gets BMW's latest Neue Klasse tech and styling – but still a very big grille - (BMW)

BMW has pulled the covers off its new 7 Series, and it’s not just a facelift or mild refresh – the brand is calling it the most extensive update it has ever given a model. The luxury saloon also acts as the latest launchpad for BMW’s next-generation Neue Klasse technologies, blending fresh design, more digital features and longer electric range.

The headline news for UK buyers is that the new 7 Series will arrive first as a fully electric i7, with three versions due to go on sale from September 2026. Plug-in hybrid models will follow before the end of the year.
