Fortunately the Bavarian manufacturer has foreseen our desires a released a whole bunch of new videos showcasing the technological talents found inside the all new model.
The above video displays the talents of the following technologies:
-
Driving Dynamic System
-
Lane change and lane departure warning system
-
Active cruise control and front-to-rear collision warning system
-
Night vision with person recognition
-
Head-up and speed limit display
You can also watch an additional video below with Dirk Häcker. Director of Functional Integration talking about the various technologies including Integral Active Steering, Driving Dynamic Control and its effects and the integrated chassis management.

To put it in another way . If Mercedes would have a Chris Bangle they would sell more cars
If BMW gets rid of those two and brings back the German blood into their design team, watch BMW take off again. I am just waiting and hoping for the day that happens. At least the 1 series are a start in the right direction.
This 7 series definitely looks a lot better than the one with the bangle-butt design.
As I rightly pointed out in 2002 when inspecting a new E65 7-Series sitting forlornly (orphan-like)on the showroom floor amongst a sea of older generation BMW models at the dealership, all this car needed was similarly "Bangle-inspired" 3,5,6 & Z models to make "design sense". Since then it has happened!
The new 7-Series is an evolution of that E65 7. In other words, it is still "Bangle". God Bless him!!
