2026 BMW 7 Series & All-Electric i7 Launched in India at ₹1.95 Crore

The gold standard of executive chauffeur luxury has officially arrived in India. BMW India has launched the refreshed 2026 BMW 7 Series and all-electric i7, introducing identical introductory pricing of ₹1.95 crore (ex-showroom) for both the petrol-powered 740i M Sport and the electric i7 xDrive60. Combining cinema-grade passenger entertainment with handcrafted opulence, the new 7 Series sets a formidable benchmark against the Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

What Makes the 2026 7 Series Range Unmatched?

1. The 31.3-Inch 8K BMW Theatre Screen

Rear passengers are treated to a private cinema on wheels. A motorized 31.3-inch panoramic display drops down from the roof lining, offering ultra-crisp 8K resolution, integrated Amazon Fire TV streaming, and complete acoustic immersion powered by a 36-speaker Bowers & Wilkins 4D diamond sound system.

2. Executive Lounge Seating with 42.5-Degree Recline

  • The rear passenger-side seat extends seamlessly with a continuous leg rest, reclining up to 42.5 degrees for first-class relaxation.
  • Individual 5.5-inch touchscreens integrated into the rear door handles control ambient themes, blinds, seat climate, and entertainment.
  • Fully automated comfort doors that open and close softly at the touch of a sensor button.

3. Dual Drivetrain Choices: Turbo Petrol or Pure Electric

  • 740i M Sport: 3.0-litre turbocharged inline-6 paired with 48V mild-hybrid assistance developing 381 bhp and 520 Nm of torque.
  • i7 xDrive60: Dual electric motors delivering 544 bhp and 745 Nm, drawing from a 101.7 kWh battery pack that provides up to 625 km of WLTP driving range.

2026 BMW 7 Series Lineup Pricing (Ex-Showroom)

BMW 740i M Sport 3.0L Turbo Petrol (48V Mild-Hybrid) ₹1.95 Crore

The CarSide Verdict

By pricing the all-electric i7 neck-and-neck with the combustion 740i at ₹1.95 crore, BMW removes the traditional electric price penalty. For corporate leaders and luxury connoisseurs, it represents the absolute pinnacle of contemporary automotive travel.
