BMW Will Unveil The 7 Series On June 10th

BMW has been teasing us with parts of its latest flagship, the 7 Series: we have seen its lightened chassis (made in part from carbon fibre), and its updated styling was shown at the Beijing Auto Show.

It seems that now the Bavarian manufacturer is ready to reveal the production model of its flagship sedan.

On June 10th, the veil will be lifted on the 2016 7 Series. Since this model usually showcases styling and technologies that will eventually find their way into the rest of BMW’s lineup, this is a date to mark on your calendar regardless of whether or not you are in the market for a luxury sedan.

So far we know that the car will weigh 130 kg less than the previous version and it will receive the latest generation of BMW’s TwinPower turbocharged engines, an air suspension and an iDrive infotainment system updated with motion-sensing technologies. There is also a self-parking mode, which can supposedly position the 7 Series in a parking spot by itself.
