The 2020 BMW 7-Series is very dramatic with a new, much bolder front end dominated by that Burj Al-Khalifa sized grille and a new I6 plug-in hybrid.
If the G11/G12 BMW 7-Series was just a little too bland for you, BMW has a fix on the way. A new 50mm (2″) taller front end with a big new chrome grille (practically) straight from the X7.
The car also has new bumpers, hood, front fenders with vertical vents, and slimmer 3-Series style taillights.
The 740e/740Le 4-cylinder plug-in hybrid has been axed and replaced by a more powerful 745e/745Le model with an I6 engine.
At launch the engine range is like this:
- 730d, 730Ld, 730d xDrive: 3L turbo-diesel I6 with 195kW (261hp) and 620Nm (457 lb-ft)
