The BMW i7 is BMW’s all-electric flagship, a full-size luxury limousine that swaps engine noise for near-silent power. BMW India launched the facelifted i7 on 11 September 2026, topped by the new M70 xDrive, a 680 hp all-wheel-drive version that hits 100 kph in just 3.8 seconds. It uses a large 112.5 kWh battery for a claimed range of up to 728 km, and prices run from about Rs 1.95 crore for the base 50 xDrive to Rs 2.65 crore for the M70 (ex-showroom). Its main rival is the Mercedes-Benz EQS, with the petrol S-Class and Audi A8L close by.
The photos below take you around the i7 inside and out, so you can see how it blends cutting-edge tech with proper rear-seat luxury. A well-kept used i7 on Spinny costs a good deal less than a new one.

BMW i7 Exterior
The facelift gives the BMW i7 a bolder, more confident face, while keeping its long, elegant limousine shape.
Front:
A large, squared-off illuminated kidney grille sits between slim LED headlamps, with a striking crystal headlight option. The M70 adds a bigger front air intake and its own M badging.
Side profile:
The long profile rides on new alloy designs, with 21-inch wheels on the M70 and flush door handles that sit smooth against the body.
Rear:
New tail-lamps with smoked lenses, a redesigned tailgate and M badging on the M70 finish off the back.

BMW i7 Interior Images
Inside, the i7 feels like a lounge on wheels, with a big leap in screens and rear-seat comfort.
Dashboard and layout:
A new BMW Panoramic Vision display stretches across the base of the windscreen, joined by a 17.9-inch central touchscreen and a 14.6-inch passenger screen, running BMW’s latest software.
Seats and space:
The front seats are heated, cooled and massaging, and the rear Executive Lounge seat reclines with a powered leg rest. You can even open the rear door from the central screen.
Boot space:
There is a generous boot for a limousine, and because the battery sits under the floor, the i7 keeps a similar load area to the petrol 7 Series.
Key touchpoints:
The highlight is the 31.3-inch 8K Theatre Screen that folds down from the roof for rear passengers, along with a Bowers and Wilkins sound system, four-zone climate and rear touchscreen controls in the doors.

Summary
The i7 sits right at the top of the electric luxury world, offering limousine comfort, cutting-edge screens and, in M70 form, supercar pace with zero tailpipe emissions. A used one saves a good deal over new, and every i7 on Spinny goes through a 200-point inspection and comes with a 5-day money-back option and a 1-year warranty. Once a variant and colour feel right, book a test drive on that car.
