7 Series Swedish AMS Test Drive: New 7 Series

[Zafiro]

His impressions.


- The new 7-serie is a large car but feels agile and nimble on the road
- He like the adaptive suspension.
- In the comfort mode the car feel as comfortable as a S-class.
- In the hardest setting the car feels stiffer than a Audi S8.

- The new 7er look a lot better in real life than the photos you've seen. The car looks impressive

- New I-Drive is a great improvement

- He think BMW should have shown us a Hybrid version. In fact he said BMW should have waited with the launch when they had production hybrid engine ready.

Question: Is it better than the competition?
Answer: I dont know yet. Its one of the best cars, that's for sure but let's wait for future comparisons.

More details from the testdrive will come in August.

As said many times before, and I'll do it again: the car looks GREAT live. Huge presence, very formidable look. It looks classy, luxurious & sporty. No BMW have such look / presence before.

The story is repeating: CS all over again. Most were sceptical until seeing the car IRL.

The proportions of F01 are just perfect.

Definitely the most balanced & modern design in class. I'm eager to see the new A8. As told the proportions would not change much, lines (especially on the front) would be more aggressive. Some say a bit too much ... kind a un-Audi, and too ricey. But Audi fans will like it. An evolution. Like B7 A4 vs B8 A4.

Ι agree that new 7 series is impressive. After the visually disappointing previous generation , BMW is back for good.

Now all they have to do is follow the same route for upcoming models such as 5 series and X3.
