BMW i7 xDrive60L With Extra Charing Port And 740L Debut In China

ADVERTISEMENT. The new 7 Series / i7 was supposed to make its public debut at the Beijing Motor Show in China. Despite the major setback, BMW stuck to its original plan to unveil the car by doing it digitally. The i7 has an extra charging port, mounted on the front-left fender. Although BMW China's focus has been on the fully electric sedan, it hasn't forgotten about the good ol' 7er with combustion engines. The 740L is shown in the adjacent images whereas the global release puts the spotlight on the beefier 760i xDrive and M760e xDrive. Not available in Europe, the 740L has a six-cylinder gasoline engine with mild-hybrid tech, rear-wheel drive, and an eight-speed automatic. Doing so would allow customers to avoid the eye-watering taxes on vehicles will large-displacement engines.
