BMW 7 Series Facelift Spotted Again Revealing New Updates

A new set of images of the BMW 7 Series facelift have surfaced online and thanks to the test mule losing some of its camouflage, we get a clearer picture of some of its exterior updates. Judging by the images we can tell that the updated flagship sedan from the Bavarian carmaker will come with a new face, equipped with a larger kidney grille, new LED headlamps and front bumper. The rear will also get a bunch of updates including a new pair of LED taillamps, new rear bumper and a chrome-tipped exhaust system.

Although in India only got the car in early 2016, globally the current-generation BMW 7 Series, which is built on the CLAR platform, is nearly three-years-old. Considering both of its key rivals - Mercedes-Benz S-Class facelift and the new-gen Audi A8 have now taken the lead with regards to features and technology, it's now time that BMW also ups the game with the 7 Series facelift. BMW is expected to reveal the facelifted 7 Series by the end of 2018 or early 2019. We expect the car to officially go on sale around mid-2019 India, however, is likely to get it in 2020.
