BMW 7 Series generations range from the First Generation to the Seventh Generation and its restyling, offered as Sedan and Sedan Long body styles. Newer generations bring more electronics and comfort, while the long-wheelbase versions concentrate on rear-seat space. Start by deciding which matters more to you.
BMW 7 Series specifications vary widely, because the model range covers gasoline, diesel, hybrid and plug-in powertrains. Dimensions, equipment and engine output belong to a particular generation and version, so check the exact car you are considering rather than assuming one figure describes the whole model.
