Don't be an Enzo farker guyDoesn't look like it's an i7 EV - more like an ICE engine propulsion system model...

BMW 7 Series and i7 (2026) Price & Specs
The facelifted BMW 7 Series range (including the fully electric i7) is now available to order in South Africa. Here’s what the latest version of the flagship sedan costs…
- SA orders open for refreshed 7 Series
- Four powertrain options on offer in SA
- ICE choices are 740d xDrive and 740
- EV derivative in form of i7 50 xDrive
- M760e xDrive PHEV tops local range
The facelifted BMW 7 Series (including the fully electric i7) is now available to order in South Africa – and we have pricing for the refreshed version of the Munich-based brand’s G70-series flagship sedan.
As before, the local 7 Series line-up includes turbodiesel, turbopetrol, plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) and fully electric vehicle (EV) derivatives. So, what will you pay for the updated version of the German brand’s largest saloon? Well, based on the information on BMW’s local configurator, the starting price has increased some R500 000 from the outgoing range’s entry point of R2 302 104.
Yes, the refreshed range kicks off with the 740d xDrive, which carries over the 3.0-litre inline-six turbodiesel motor (and eight-speed automatic transmission) from the pre-facelift iteration, though now seemingly offering higher outputs of 230 kW and 670 Nm – up from 210 kW and 650 Nm. Equipped with 48V mild-hybrid technology, this all-paw derivative starts at R2 804 439 and has a listed 0-100 kph time of 5.7 seconds.
Then there’s the 740, which is priced from R2 807 630 and drops the “i” from the name of its forebear – which was, of course, known as the 740i. This rear-driven variant’s turbocharged 3.0-litre straight-six petrol engine (which also features an eight-speed auto and 48V mild-hybrid tech) has been updated to offer improved peak outputs of 294 kW and 580 Nm (up from 280 kW and 540 Nm). Expect a 0-100 kph time of 5.4 seconds.
What do the facelifted BMW 7 Series & i7 cost in SA?
