Not long ago, BMW's new X7 model was officially released, and the new split headlight design of the new car caused a lot of controversy, and it was mentioned at the time that it would be a family design. No, on April 20, we obtained a set of real car drawings of BMW's new model i7 and some official maps leaked in advance from the Internet, and the overall changes were made compared to the current 7 series.
In terms of appearance, the new car adopts a new design language, the most conspicuous of which is the design of split headlights, while the style under the bumper has also been adjusted, and there are heat dissipation openings on both sides. Of course, for BMW's redesigned model, it is indispensable to increase the size of the double kidney grille, but on the new car is equipped with a larger size of the luminous grille, whether it looks good or not is really a matter of opinion, but it is definitely a high degree of recognition.
On the side, you can see that the new car adopts a new style of door handle design, which looks a little more stylish, while the classic Huo-style corners have also been retained. In terms of the rear, the new car is equipped with a new LED taillight style, and the slender light strip has a higher recognition after lighting, and at the same time echoes the split headlights.
In terms of interior, the new car adopts a new design language, first of all, it is equipped with the same dual screen as iX and X7, the combination of 12.3-inch instrument + 14.9-inch central control screen, the built-in new iDrive 8 car machine system, and the new double-frame steering wheel, which adds a lot of color in terms of technology and luxury.

In addition, the current overseas version of the model is equipped with the entertainment system cooperated with Amazon FireTV, and according to the official statement, in the future, it will work together with Local Chinese suppliers to develop an entertainment system that is more in line with the preferences of Chinese users. Then again, for the rear screen equipped with the ideal L9 before, many people have a lot of controversy because the screen is too large, the distance is too close, like sitting on the bus and other factors, so the larger size and closer distance on the BMW i7, I don't know if it will cause controversy?
In addition, the rear of the new car also has an independent control button area, as well as sunroof, sunshade and other functional buttons, and according to the leaked official map, the new car or will provide a 3-seat version of the model, thereby improving the rear seat riding experience.
