- Highs Hides its size and weight well in corners, powerful electric powertrains, the cabin’s so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
- Lows Can’t cruise for the same highway distance as a gas-powered 7-series, tech overload inside, styling isn’t for everyone.
- Verdict With more connected features and displays than a Silicon Valley keynote address, the i7 is a luxury EV for the chronically online.
Overview
Electric powertrains make a lot of sense in a large luxury car. Take the 2024 BMW i7, which features a powerful EV powertrain with a nearly silent operation that only serves to enhance the feeling of serenity that luxury buyers expect. Couple that with a smooth ride and a spacious cabin built from premium materials and you have an electric 7-series that’s worth its asking price. The i7 is a sedan for the tech-savvy buyer, too, as it’s filled to the brim with digital displays and even can be had with a drop-down theater system for those chauffeured in the back—something its chief rival, the Mercedes-Benz EQS, doesn’t offer. The i7 xDrive60 comes with 536 horsepower and a driving range of up to 318 miles, while a performance-oriented M70 trim boosts power to 650 hp and offers a range of around 295 miles. A rear-wheel drive eDrive50 model is offered too, and although BMW hasn’t said yet, it should offer the most driving range of the bunch. Those range numbers are good enough to compete with rivals such as the Porsche Taycan and the Tesla Model S, neither of which offer anywhere near the sort of sybaritic luxury that the i7 does.

What’s New for 2024?
BMW has added the 650-hp M70 and 449-hp eDrive50 models to the i7’s lineup for 2024.
The more powerful electric powertrain is said to power the big sedan to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds and still offers an estimated 295-mile driving range per charge. The eDrive50 uses a single, rear-mounted motor but BMW hasn’t yet disclosed its performance or range estimates. Otherwise, we’re expecting that the i7 will carry over to the new year with no other major changes.

M70

Unless you’re expecting to be challenged at every stop light for an impromptu drag race, we’d suggest sticking with the xDrive60 model. It still offers plenty of zip from its 536-hp powertrain and comes standard with a host of desirable features. Like the gasoline-powered 7-series, the i7 is a limousine-like luxury sedan that can be configured to pamper rear-seat occupants with the optional Executive Lounge package. We’d recommend that package, as it adds plenty of features to justify its price tag, including plush reclining rear seats with massage.
EV Motor, Power, and Performance
All-wheel drive i7s use a similar electric powertrain setup as the brand’s EV SUV, the iX, with two electric motors—one driving each axle—making a combined 536 horsepower. In our testing, the i7 xDrive60 hit 60 mph in 4.1 seconds. The more powerful M70 model dials up the heat to 650 horsepower. The rear-wheel drive eDrive50 model makes 449 horsepower and performance will likely be slightly slower. Handling is surprisingly agile for a large sedan but the i7 won’t attract buyers looking for sports-sedan handling. Those seeking a comfortable and luxurious experience will find much to like and during our first test drive, we noted its particularly smooth ride and hushed cabin. If you’d prefer a gasoline-powered 7-series, one is still available; we review that model separately.

Range, Charging, and Battery Life
On its standard 19-inch wheels, the i7 xDrive60 offers an estimated driving range of 318 miles per charge, but with the larger and more attractive 20- and 21-inch wheels the sedan’s driving range drops.
On our highway fuel-economy test route, we managed to squeeze 260 miles out of our xDrive60 test vehicle which rolled on 21-inch wheels. The EPA hasn’t released an official estimate yet for the eDrive50 or M70 models, but BMW claims the latter should come in around 295 miles per charge. The car’s large 101.7-kWh battery pack can be hooked up to DC fast charging stations and is said to be capable of adding 80 miles of driving range in just 10 minutes on such a connection. Speaking of charging, BMW is including three years of free 30-minute charging sessions at Electrify America charging stations with every new i7.
Fuel Economy and Real-World MPGe
The EPA estimates that the i7 xDrive60 should deliver up to 87 MPGe city and 92 MPGe highway. The M70 should offer slightly lower numbers while the eDrive50 should go a little higher. For more information about the i7’s fuel economy, visit the EPA’s website.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
Because they were developed jointly, the i7 benefits from the same spacious, luxurious, and upscale cabin ambiance as the gasoline-powered 7-series.
In addition to luxuries, the i7 offers a bevy of high-tech convenience features that put it on solid footing versus rivals such as the Mercedes-Benz EQS and the Tesla Model S. There’s generous room in both the front and the rear seats and fine materials lining every square inch of the interior. Opt for the Executive Lounge package and your rear-seat passengers will be treated to power-adjustable reclining seats, a wireless smartphone charging pad, and extra-plush headrests. The trunk space is plentiful but if you’re hauling longer items, you’ll find a handy rear-seat pass-through feature.

- Why We Test EVs the Way We Do
Infotainment and Connectivity
The i7 borrows its digital dashboard from the iX SUV, which consists of large floating digital- gauge and infotainment displays.
Sandwiched together under a single pane of glass, the two displays offer a clear look at driving data and entertainment features. There is also an available rear-seat entertainment system featuring a large 31.3-inch screen that drops from the ceiling and can access streaming services such as Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube via the car’s 5G cellular connection.

Safety and Driver-Assistance Features
A host of driver-assistance features are standard with more advanced tech available optionally. Available features include a hands-free driving mode for use on the highway and a parking assistant system that allows the driver to exit the vehicle and park the car via a smartphone app. For more information about the i7’s crash-test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites.
Key safety features are expected to include:
- Standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection
- Standard lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist
- Available adaptive cruise control with a semi-autonomous driving mode
Warranty and Maintenance Coverage
The i7 comes standard with the same warranty coverage as BMW’s other electrified models, the iX SUV and the i4 sedan, which means basic coverage for four years or 50,000 miles and more generous protection for the electric-vehicle components. All new BMWs also come with a three-year complimentary maintenance plan.
- Limited warranty covers four years or 50,000 miles
- Powertrain warranty covers four years or 50,000 miles
- EV components warranty covers eight years or 100,000 miles
- Complimentary maintenance is covered for three years or 36,000 miles

Select a year
- Highs Deluxe and supremely quiet cabin, surprisingly agile handling, effortless acceleration.
- Lows Dizzyingly digital, some infotainment graphics are over-stylized and hard to read, gas-powered 7-series still the choice for cross-country drives.
- Verdict The first electric 7-series model lives up to the luxury car’s reputation and delivers a futuristic experience for both the driver and passengers.
Overview
Where Mercedes-Benz goes, so goes arch-rival BMW—and vice-versa. Now that Mercedes has introduced its electric S-class, the EQS, it’s no surprise that BMW is launching an all-electric flagship luxury sedan called the i7. The electric Bimmer has been developed jointly with the next generation of the 7-series and delivers the same level of luxury as that gasoline-powered model.
The i7 is powered by two electric motors and sports a battery pack large enough to compete with the EQS and other high-end electric sedans, such as the Tesla Model S and Porsche Taycan. Styling is more sedate than the recently debuted XM SUV concept but the 2023 BMW i7 still takes some risks, particularly with its front-end design, which includes unusually large grille intakes and split-element headlamps. A host of technology features intermingle with luxury materials inside rendering the i7 tailormade for buyers who want whisper-quiet luxury transport—and also those who intend to relax in the back while being chauffeured.
What’s New for 2023?
The 2023 i7 is a new nameplate and serves as the flagship of BMW’s expanding “i” sub-brand of electric vehicles.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
xDrive60
$120,295
For now, the only version of the i7 that BMW offers is the all-wheel drive xDrive60, but we expect a more sporty M-sport model eventually.
Like the gasoline-powered 7-series, the i7 is a limo-like luxury sedan that can be configured to pamper rear-seat occupants with the optional Executive Lounge package. We’d recommend that package, as it adds plenty of features to justify its price tag, including plush, electrically-reclining rear seats with massage.

stripped-down processors at the same price / Sudo Null IT News These are complete analogues of existing CPUs, but with limited functionality.
Processors without integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630 iGPUs are designated with the suffix ‘F’ (same as chips with integrated fabric fabric, also with the suffix ‘F’, so do not confuse them).
Now Intel has announced wholesale prices for new CPUs for manufacturers (in lots of 1000 pieces).
AnadTech has noticed a strange pricing model: non-graphics processors are sold at exactly the same price of as those with an integrated GPU. The manufacturer can be understood. Apparently, the cost of the processors is the same: the version «without integrated graphics» means that the GPU is actually there, it’s just disabled.
But for the buyer, the situation looks strange. Moreover, in a similar situation, when a part of the processor cores is disabled at the hardware level, it is sold cheaper. The success of AMD Ryzen shows that there is a lot of demand for processors without integrated graphics, but this version is usually sold at a lower price. Intel is different.

The only processor on the list without a full-fledged “pair” is the overclockable Core i3-9350KF at a wholesale price of $173, which is a few dollars more than the previous generation i3-8350K processor ($168). Unlike its ancestor, the Core i3-9350KF supports turbo mode.
The retail price on the market is usually 10-20% higher than the wholesale price, but this is highly dependent on the total number of processors released. There is a possibility that in retail the stripped-down versions will still be slightly cheaper.
Like the full-fledged versions, analogues with the index ‘F’ are produced using the 14 nm process technology. With their help, Intel is trying to deal with the shortage of 14 nm processors, which is now felt on the market — this version is expressed by edition Tom’s Hardware : «The incredibly complex chip manufacturing process isn’t perfect, which is why many processors come off the production line with defects.
If a defect is found in a core, Intel can simply disable the cores and sell the processor as a lower-end model. Therefore, it is understandable that selling chips with integrated graphics disabled will allow Intel to sell chips with defective GPUs.”
Tom’s Hardware confirms that the new Intel processors are physically indistinguishable from normal ones, and disabling the GPU does not provide any performance benefits such as overclocking. Their only advantage is that they can be on sale when there are no full-fledged chips. But the disadvantage is obvious — in the event of a failure of the main graphics card, the computer will no longer be able to switch to the built-in GPU.
The shortage of CPUs is largely due to the record demand for Intel processors, for the same reason prices continue to rise. Retailers consider several factors, with availability being a key factor in setting the final retail price. Thus, F-series processors could theoretically be sold at lower prices if the equivalent with integrated graphics is really harder to obtain.
But by setting the wholesale price at the same level, Intel is (perhaps unintentionally) giving retailers permission to sell «cut off» models at the same prices as processors that are now in short supply, writes Tom’s Hardware .
