It should take approximately three seconds to go from 0 to 62.

A report claiming the next-generation BMW 7 Series could get an all-electric model was published less than two months ago. BMWBLOG reported that the vehicle could come in two versions depending on peak output.

The i7, the zero-emission flagship sedan, is a tentative name. It could use a 100-kWh lithium-ion battery pack to provide a range of approximately 360 miles (600 km) on two charges. This variant is expected to produce around 550 horsepower (410kilowatts), most likely from a dual motor powertrain.

BMW will also offer the i7S – it should be the most powerful 7 Series ever produced. It has an estimated peak power of 670 hp (670 kW) and is powered by a 4×4 electric motortrain system. The WLTP cycle measures the battery’s range at 360 miles (100 km) and 120-kWh. We expect the performance sedan will be able to reach speeds of 62 mph (100 km/h) with such power. This is in comparison to the M760Li’s 3.91 second sprint time.

The 7 Series will not be a pure EV. BMW plans traditional ICE-powered models as well as hybrids. The base hybrid-powered 7er will produce 560 horsepower (420 kW) as well as 590 lb (890 Nm) of torque. According to reports, a plug-in hybrid as well as mild-hybrid models are being launched.

These numbers sound very intriguing, and we’re eager to see if BMW actually delivers them. We could soon see a prototype of the next-generation 7 Series as we enter auto show season.
