Inside
Summary
The BMW i7 M70 xDrive (MY27) is a 5-seat saloon with all-wheel drive, on sale in the UK from £164,420. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 3.8 seconds, quicker than 87% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 329 miles (530 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 89% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 23rd of 48 saloons.
It uses around 2.9 mi/kWh (212 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 112.4 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 175 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 370 miles (595 km) at motorway speeds.
It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.
Its UK starting price works out at £499 per mile of real-world range, higher than the median for saloons (£245 per mile).
