It almost seems like yesterday that people were picking on the sixth-generation BMW 7-Series for its hockey stick side inserts. But no, this model has been with us since the summer of 2015, and in a couple of years time, a new generation will take its place.
Well, feast your eyes on what might very well be a mule for the 7th-gen 7-Series. In fact, our spy photographers now believe that those electric prototypes spotted back in November may have been mules too.
Judging by the pre-production look of some of the body panels and possibly fake light units, we’re also inclined to believe this might be a test mule, hiding either an all-new generation 7-Series or perhaps even BMW’s upcoming Mercedes EQS rival, which could be dubbed the i7.
While it’s obviously too soon to discuss anything regarding styling, we can definitely assume that the Bavarian brand will pull out all the stops when it comes to on-board tech and engine range. And no, the dashboard visible on the test mules doesn’t belong to the upcoming model but the current one.
If this is indeed the first step in BMW commencing tests on the next-gen 7-Series, then we can expect the first full body prototypes on the road sometime towards the end of this year. We already know that Mercedes will strike first in this battle with an all-new S-Class, while Audi won’t roll out a new A8 until maybe 2024 or 2025.
