German car company BMW plans to launch a fully electric version of its i7 on the market in November.
The company’s marketing director, Peter Nota, said today, Wednesday, during the car presentation ceremony in Munich, that the fully electric i7 will play a very important role in China.
It is also expected to have a large percentage of sales on the west and east coasts of the United States and in parts of Europe.
It is noteworthy that the range of this excellent model is up to 625 km.
The starting price of the car is 135 thousand and 900 euros, while the price of the model that runs on a diesel engine starts from 107 thousand and 300 euros.
Nota explained that the 7 Series car’s revenue outlook is “very excellent”, but declined to give forecasts for sales of petrol, diesel, hybrid or battery-electric versions.
Production of these cars will be limited to the BMW plant in Dingöfling in Lower Bavaria.
Nota added that “BMW” is seeking to achieve “another leap” in sales numbers, and said without specifying targets: But we are very ambitious.
He pointed out that the main markets are China, the United States, Germany, Britain and Korea.
It is worth noting that BMW’s sales of the current 7 Series cars since its start of sale in 2015 have reached nearly 330,000 cars worldwide, and the Mercedes-Benz S-Class continues to be the leader in the luxury limousine market.
He described the Nota 7 Series and the i7 as “the spearhead in our portfolio.”
BMW plans to launch self-driving cars under the third level, in which the driver leaves the task of driving the car, within a year and a half following further safety tests.
