The 2025 BMW i7 M70 xDrive is the flagship of the electric 7 Series, an M Performance interpretation of BMW's largest luxury sedan on the CLAR-derived platform. A 190-kW front motor and 360-kW rear motor combine for up to 485 kW (650 hp) and 1,100 N⋅m (811 lb-ft) under Launch Control, drawing on a 105.7-kWh (101.7 usable) battery for a BMW-claimed 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds. Car and Driver instrumented an M70 to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds despite a 6,067-lb curb weight, and the EPA rates the 20-inch car at 268 miles of range and 75 MPGe combined. It pairs near-supercar straight-line thrust with the chauffeur-grade silence, rear Executive Lounge seating and Theatre Screen of the standard i7.
