BMW 7 series

Together with the 3 and 5 Series, the 7 Series is one of BMW’s oldest models in terms of type name. The first 7 Series dates back to 1977. Fast forward in time and we will arrive in 2015, the year in which BMW will launch the sixth generation. As with previous models, the car is packed with the latest technology that the brand can offer.

Technology

The 7 Series, for example, drives autonomously to a reasonable extent. This allows the car to park and park completely independently. The cruise control has been extended in such a way that it can adjust the speed itself if the local speed limit changes. Furthermore, the 7 Series can keep itself within a lane and warn against rear or side collisions.

BMW i

Further notable equipment is gesture control for the infotainment. The technology of BMW’s i-models is also partly used. Not for the powertrain, but for the use of carbon fiber in the chassis. Nevertheless, there is a partly electric 7 Series, the plug-in hybrid version.
