The BMW i7 is the entry-level battery-electric variant of BMW’s seventh-generation 7 Series, launched in 2022 on the same G70 platform as the petrol and diesel models. It uses a single rear-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor producing 449 PS and 549 Nm of torque, fed by a 101.7 kWh usable battery delivering up to 625 km of WLTP range. It supports 11 kW AC and 195 kW DC fast charging, and rides on standard two-axle adaptive air suspension for a near-silent, cushioned ride. Inside, the cabin carries over the 7 Series’ curved digital display, panoramic Sky Lounge roof, and business-class rear seating. In Bangladesh, the i7 is available exclusively as new or lightly-used import stock through specialist EV and luxury dealers.

BMW i7 Overview
The BMW i7 is the accessible entry point into BMW’s fully-electric flagship saloon, positioned for Bangladeshi buyers who want the prestige and comfort of a 7 Series while making the shift to electric power. It appeals to environmentally conscious business owners and first-time luxury EV buyers who still want a traditional saloon rather than an SUV shape.
It competes at the top of the full-size luxury EV segment, offering limousine-level comfort with genuinely long real-world range, making it usable for both city driving and longer highway trips as charging infrastructure expands.
BMW i7 Features
Standard features include BMW’s curved digital display running iDrive 8 with over-the-air updates, a panoramic Sky Lounge glass roof, four-zone climate control, and reclining rear seats. Ambient interior lighting and a Bowers & Wilkins sound system are commonly specified on imported Bangladesh units.
Driver-assistance technology includes adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, a 360-degree camera system, and semi-automated parking assist, all standard across the i7 range regardless of trim.
BMW i7 Motor
The single rear-mounted electric motor delivers instant, effortlessly smooth torque with none of the turbo lag or gear-shift interruptions of the petrol 7 Series models. Acceleration feels brisk but composed rather than aggressive, matching the eDrive50’s positioning as the comfort-focused entry to the i7 range.
Compared to the Mercedes-Benz EQS 450+ and its rivals, the i7 eDrive50 offers a more overtly luxurious, cushioned ride thanks to standard air suspension, at the cost of slightly less outright efficiency than some single-motor competitors.
BMW i7 Variants
The i7 electric range sits alongside the petrol, diesel, and plug-in hybrid 7 Series models on the same G70 platform, spanning the single-motor eDrive50 tested here, the dual-motor all-wheel-drive xDrive60, and the high-performance M70 flagship with over 650 PS.
In Bangladesh, the eDrive50 is typically the most attainable i7 variant for import buyers, while the xDrive60 and M70 appear as premium special-order imports for buyers wanting maximum performance.
