Our spy photographers have snapped pictures of the BMW 7-Series with combustion engine in Munich \u2013 for the first time bare the plastic panels so far covering the bumpers front and rear. It will use the same all-new platform as its all-electric i7 stable mate, similar to the one underpinning the iNext and i5.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until now, Munich has been very thorough in disguising the front end of the 7-Series, but with some of the camouflage now removed we can make some educated guesses about the new model\u2019s face. There will be split headlights positioned lower than in the current model \u2013 which looks a little old 8-Series. This could lead to a very interesting styling direction for BMW.<\/p>

The BMW 7-Series is traditionally packed full of new technology, and it looks like the new one won\u2019t be an exception as it will put a strong focus on autonomous driving, judging by the sheer number of sensors and cameras on the prototype. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the first time in the history of the 7-Series, the top model won\u2019t be powered by a V8 or V12 engine.\u00a0Instead, enthusiasts will get a 7-Series flagship model with an all-electric drivetrain \u2013 the i7. According to sources, the temporary, and potentially the final name, is BMW i7 M60. With the V12 being phased out, BMW needs a new high-end sedan. So in order to reliably and efficiently produce at least 600 horsepower, they will rely on the new fifth-generation eDrive architecture. The i7 M60\u00a0will feature at least two electric motors and will have at least 650 HP to rely on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
