Recently, the road attempt of the new generation of "BMW X7" has been officially exposed, and it is already certain that the appearance and interior of the new car will undergo great changes, and the entire appearance is basically in line with the spy photos previously exposed! This is also where the controversy comes in! For BMW such a move, in fact, Xiaobian is understandable, after all, in the competition with Audi and Mercedes-Benz, BMW's design has obviously begun to go downwind, want to reverse such a situation, it is necessary to make adjustments, and this adjustment is not a painless change, so for the new BMW X7, BMW is also making a new attempt.
The picture above is the BMW X7 spy photo of the 2023 model that has been officially exposed. Basically from the entire styling, it can be judged that it maintains a high degree of consistency with the road test model! The most controversial thing is to replace the original tearful eye headlights with the current split shape. But in fact, with BMW's new mid-net shape, this split headlight has no sense of violation. Located at the top is a segmented LED light source, and below it is the main light source, and the light blue light source is also equipped inside the light cavity, which extends downward along the main light source, and the front surround just forms a cavity, which is also BMW's new modeling style, which echoes with the split headlights.
On the side, the previous aura should be weakened, mainly because the entire waist line is more down, and a progressive grille shape is adopted, which also makes the new car look more agile! It can be said that it is a very obvious contrast with the entire front face. In addition, the front and rear wheel eyebrows of the new car also adopt a double shape design, and run through the side skirt, bringing a stronger sense of blade! At the rear of the car, the taillights become flatter, and the silver trim strip in the center is just straight into the interior of the taillights, echoing the entire tail box and rear encirclement! The exhaust from both sides also shows a sporty side.
In addition to the controversy over the appearance of the new car, the adjustment of the entire interior has also become more direct. Judging from the effect presented in the current figure. The new generation of BMW X7 will abandon the previous interior styling and replace it with the current through-screen. But the regular physical buttons should be reserved, just obscured. So the functionality of the interior of a new car is still unknown. But one thing is for sure, the new car will be equipped with safety features such as L3 assisted driving systems.
Powertrain, the new generation of BMW X7 will be equipped with a 3.0T in-line six-cylinder turbo engine and a 4.4T V8 engine, of which the maximum power is 250kW and 390kW, respectively, and in terms of gearbox is still an 8AT gearbox, and the entire series is equipped with a four-wheel drive system, in addition, the new car is also expected to be equipped with plug-in hybrid or light hybrid system! At present, the new car has officially entered the road test stage and is expected to be fully listed around the middle of the year!
