First drives are out. The 7 Series has now been stretched to same length as the Rolls-Royce Ghost at 213 inches long and uses the same two-axle air suspension setup. Weirdly enough, despite being the largest flagship in the segment, it only receives a 3.5 degree RWS system. Also, the 48V system isn't just for the mild hybrid, it also powers the active anti-rollbars.
Is it just me or has the grille become slightly less disgusting?
It's better when there are more structure below the grille. Some sedans look weird because there's only a thin line there imo. IMO iX looks hot.

213 inches long lol. Getting to where its not going to fit in a garage...
Yeah, that's Maybach territory. I think it's that large because that's the only way they're able to fit in the massive battery pack from the iX into a sedan lol.
Here's the trunk via an accidental leak. This car is going to be really tall and not particularly elegant I think:
It's probably because the battery pack eats into the foot space, and the only way to accommodate it was to raise the cabin. The packaging on this isn't the best.
