2009 BMW 7-Series exposed early


Photos of the all-new 2009 BMW 7-Series have hit the web before its upcoming official launch. The new model looks strikingly better than the outgoing blob, which can truly be called the ugliest sedan in the history of BMW.

Engines will include a 326 hp turbo inline-6 and a 400 hp turbo V8, derived from motors that already run under the X6’s bonnet.

Available in two wheelbase lengths, the golden one is the longer version, and the black one is standard -length.

The suspension now consists of a double-wishbone front and multilink rear setup, and offers active damper settings such as comfort, normal, sports and sports-plus.

Interesting new features include upgraded active steering, now extended to all four wheels, depending on speed.

Other features include night-vision, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, updated iDrive computer, rear screens and in-car internet.

The overall design is based on the CS Concept shown last year, which most thought would become a “four-door” coupe. As is, this car is bound to be a massive hit, considering the awful old one.
