The BMW 7 Series is a line of full-size luxury vehicles produced by the German automaker BMW. Introduced in 1977, it is BMW's flagship car and is only available as a sedan or extended-length limousine.
The BMW E23 is the first BMW 7 Series luxury car. Replacing the BMW E3 large sedan, the BMW E23 was produced for ten years from 1977 to 1987 and was replaced by the BMW E32 7 Series in 1986.
In July 1986,[12] BMW introduced the second-generation BMW 7-series, the BMW E32. Some luxury options included integrated telephone and fax machines, a wine cooler, double glazing, traction control system. The top-line BMW E32 BMW 750iL was the first car in the world to offer High-Intensity Discharge headlamps.
Initially the BMW engine choices were all six-cylinder petrol, as per the previous generation. In 1987 a BMW V12 engine was introduced. In 1992, BMW V8 engines were added to the lineup (BMW 730i and BMW 740i). The BMW E32 (BMW 750i) was the first car adhering to BMW's self-imposed speed limit of 250 km/h (155.37 mph).
The BMW E32 also introduced the extended wheelbase version (indicated by an 'L' from German Lang, after the model number) with extra rear leg room compared to the standard BMW 7-series.
The third-generation BMW E38 was produced between 1994–2001. It was the first BMW 7-series to be available with a diesel engine and the first to have the option of a five-speed automatic transmission. BMW was also the first European car manufacturer to offer an integrated satellite navigation screen which featured on the BMW E38 7 Series.
In the U.S. two BMW engine options were available, a 4.0l (later reveised to a BMW 4.4l) V8 (BMW 740) and a BMW V12 option (BMW 750).
BMW's flagship sedan was the E38 BMW 750il Armored. It was featured in the 1997 film Tomorrow Never Dies as the car driven by James Bond (Pierce Brosnan).[17]
BMW's E38 735i was featured in the 2002 film The Transporter driven by Jason Statham.
The fourth-generation E65 BMW 7-series was produced from 2001 to 2008 (released as 2002-2008 models). The BMW Hydrogen 7 is the first production BMW to be powered by hydrogen. Although previous generations of the BMW 7 Series had long-wheelbase and protection variants, the BMW E65 was the first iteration to use specific chassis codes for each version. BMW E65 was the designation of the standard-wheelbase version, BMW E66 was the long-wheelbase version, BMW E67 of the high-security (armored) version and BMW E68 of the BMW Hydrogen 7.
The BMW 745i/Li (2002-2005) models featured a 4.4L V8 engine outputting 325 hp. Later on, the BMW 750i/Li (2006-2008) models featured a slightly more powerful 4.8L V8 engine outputting 360 hp. Moreover, the BMW 760i/Li (2002-2005) and 760Li (2006–2008) features a vastly more powerful, performance-tuned 6.0L V12 engine with 438 hp.
The BMW E65 generated much controversy, due to its radical styling and iDrive user difficulties. Nonetheless, the BMW E65 broke records to become the best-selling 7-series iteration ever, especially after its 2005 BMW facelift. The BMW E65/ BMW E66 has been a subject of various media forms in pop culture during the early 2000s.
The 5th generation BMW F01/ BMW F02 went on sale in November 2008 and is currently still in production. The BMW F01/ BMW F02 was the first BMW 7-series available with an 8-speed automatic transmission and BMW all-wheel drive. It is the first BMW 7-series where all engines are turbocharged. (except for markets like Thailand where the BMW 730Li remains non-turbocharged) The BMW ActiveHybrid7 was the first 7-series to use an electric motor.
It is in this generation that BMW changed the nomenclature from E to BMW F01, thereby making it the first BMW to have so.
Also the model numbers have been changed for the new engine lineup. BMW 730d/Ld for the 3.0l inline six 258 bhp diesel, BMW ActiveHybrid 7 for the 3.0l inline six 310 bhp petrol hybrid, BMW 750i/Li for the 4.4l V8 473 bhp petrol, BMW 750d/Ld for the 3.0l inline six 385 bhp triple turbo diesel and BMW 760Li for the 6.0l V12 544 bhp petrol.
All the BMW engines are twin turbocharged for maximum efficiency and power.
For 2014 it received BMW's new second generation iDrive touchpad.
