BMW India has launched the new BMW 7 Series range in the country, expanding its flagship sedan lineup with both petrol and all-electric powertrain options. The range will also include the high-performance BMW i7 M70, which becomes the most powerful BMW 7 Series model ever offered to customers in India.
The new 7 was unveiled by superstar Ranveer Singh. The exclusive launch, crafted as a tribute to dedication, brought together two big icons – one at the pinnacle of modern luxury and the other at the pinnacle of cinematic excellence. On this occasion, Ranveer Singh was introduced as the Brand Voice for BMW India – a collaboration that brings a powerful, contemporary resonance to the commanding authority of the 7.
Mr. Hardeep Singh Brar, President and CEO, BMW Group India, said, “The new BMW 7 Series is more than our flagship sedan – it is our ultimate statement of modern luxury. It moves the leaders, changemakers and visionaries who are shaping tomorrow. Every detail has been crafted around one idea: those who have reached the pinnacle deserve an experience to match. The new 7 Series sets a benchmark, whether you choose to take the wheel or be driven. It is the new face of the BMW Luxury Class, while offering an early glimpse into technologies that will shape the Neue Klasse era. And with our Power of Choice philosophy, customers can choose from dynamic combustion engines to advanced electric mobility. Because true luxury is not about limiting choices – it is about expanding them. With the new 7, luxury doesn’t end with the drive; it begins there.”
Mr. Brar further added, “The new BMW i7 M70 xDrive is the most powerful 7 Series ever created – where M performance meets first-class luxury, without compromise. It brings together exhilarating electric performance and the refinement expected from the pinnacle of the BMW portfolio. This is a car for someone who wants the thrill of taking the wheel and, equally, the luxury of being driven. Few cars can make the driver’s seat and the rear seat equally desirable. The i7 M70 does. It represents our belief that sustainability and performance are not competing choices. The future of luxury can be electric, exhilarating and extraordinary – all at once.”
Developed with passion and designed to perfection, the BMW 7 Series sedan has established itself as an innovation leader and technological pioneer around the world since it first took to the stage in 1977. Each generation has brought fresh impetus to its era – from groundbreaking safety functions and revolutionary operating concepts to digital worlds that set new standards.
In addition to the 7 Series, the new BMW i7 will also now be locally produced at BMW Group Plant Chennai. With this, India becomes the only other country apart from Germany where the i7 is locally produced. The new BMW i7 M70 will be available as a completely built-up unit.
