BMW has started working on the mid-life facelift of the 7-Series, or as the Bavarians call it the 7-Series LCI. With Mercedes having just released the facelifted S-Class and Audi launching the all-new A8, BMW can’t risk falling behind in the big league so sending the 7-Series to the plastic surgeon was the right thing to do.

The update will include more comprehensive changes that those seen in other recent LCI model facelifts, including new, more handsome headlights and taillights with a thinner profile for a more dynamic look. A different kidney grille and redesigned bumpers are also on the to-do list.


Inside, the BMW flagship will feature upgraded tech features as well as an updated list of safety features that will represent the absolute best the Bavarian firm has to offer. This will include a similarly capable self-driving feature with the Audi A8, which is the only one currently to offer Level 3 autonomy.

The range of engines will also be updated for more power and less emissions, with plug-in hybrid versions probably adding a bit more electric juice into the mix.
