  • sgCarMart studies the design of the new BMW 7 Series

    The BMW 7 Series embodies 'Technological Poetry' - the perfect interaction of advanced technology and its translation into design. sgCarMart finds out more.



    You've probably already read about the new BMW 7 Series in our reviews and feature on its Remote Control Parking system but let's now take a closer gander at the Bavarian marque's most luxurious and advanced sedan to date.


    In laser highbeam mode, the BMW Laserlight illuminates a range of up to 600m - nearly twice as far as that of conventional head lights
    Outwardly designed by an Iranian-German named Nader Faghihzadeh, who was also the artist behind the exterior design of the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé, the new 7 Series is far more refined and charming than ever before. This new BMW 7 Series truly represents BMW's take on contemporary luxury.

    BMW has improved on an already proven design recipe and evolved the 7 Series into a modern interpretation of its renowned flagship model. With dynamic proportions, precise lines and sculptured surfaces, the 7 Series displays a BMW-unique design in its most elegant form.

    More importantly, as Julian has mentioned in the video, the 7 Series also has neat tech nested into its design. For example, the ingenious BMW Laserlight, which is easily recognisable by the blue-coloured, horizontal bars in the centres of the tubes.

    Let's not also forget the car's uniquely designed Active air stream kidney grille, which actively regulates airstream. When cooling demand for the engine increases, the air vents automatically open. In a closed state they improve aerodynamics and ensure a striking presence.

    Put these details together and you'd be staring at a German masterpiece of epic, dynamic proportions.
