"When the next 7er appears in early 2009. This this will be the most challenging 7er yet.
As well as a regular luxury sedan , a longer wheelbase car will feature different styling - look more elegant ,
luxurious as the standard model will take a more sporting approach .

In design the radical approach is very much in element - snake like eyes surround a widened twin kidney grille .
a strong shoulder line connects the mid section of the body and the rear lights wrap onto the bootlid.
The LWB features larger shaped front lights and a long light strip along the rear trunk lid.
Engines will start from new V8 including twin turbo , petrol and diesel , a new twin turbo V12 and next generation top line diesel engine ,
hydrogen power will also be available from the start of production.

And then finally Because of the proposals of using lightweight efficiency the 7er will be engineered to be lighter than it's previous incarnations.
The new 7er will also commit platform modules that will be shared with the new small Rolls-Royce.

With the advance to make the 7er more lighter the next generation car will eventually herald the arrival of an M7."
