More about the BMW 7 Series
Parking Assistant Plus allows the vehicle to automatically pull into a parallel space, handling the steering, accelerator and brakes. Paired perfectly with the Back-Up Assistant, this new technology allows the driver to have a type of automated reversing that enables the driver to get out of a tight space with limited visibility.
A direct link to the navigation system allows the driver to see the preferable gear to select according to the road ahead. Therefore, fewer unnecessary shifts need to be made during corners and more use of the engine braking when approaching a junction. On top of this, the 7 Series can tap into its cameras and radar sensors to examine the road conditions around it.
If your vehicle goes into a stationary condition for a short time, the Auto-Start-Stop system won't shut off the engine, as it is less efficient than leaving the car running. Depending on the driving conditions, the 7 Series clever technology allows the car to choose whether to enable coasting mode, therefore saving gas in the process.
When driving at night, the BMW Night Vision is designed to give visibility where regular headlights wouldn't reach; it shows a heat-sight view of the route head, allowing the driver to see potential over-looked perils that they may have previously missed. Night Sight is combined with obstacle detection so that the vehicle can identify people, larger animals and other heat-emitting objects on the scene.
What’s the Towing Capacity of the 7 Series?
This model of the BMW 7 series has an approximate towing weight of 2300KG; this allows its driver a whole host of options when considering what to tow. Due to the different models and trims available for this vehicle, we would always advise checking your VIN plate for an accurate reading. If you need any help, don't hesitate to contact our sales team, who can help you locate your VIN plate.
Will it need a bumper cut?
The detachable Towbar requires a bumper cut to be made to the undertray of the vehicle to be fitted. This has been listed as a non-visible bumper cut; however, different trim levels may require further modifications. To check what bumper cut your vehicle requires, please contact our sales team for further assistance.
Which Towbar is best for my BMW 7 Series?
We list a detachable swan neck towbar for the BMW 7 Series; the detachable Towbar will allow for the driver to remove the neck when towing is no longer required. The detachable Towbar protects the vehicles rear parking sensors as the Towbar is almost invisible once the towbar neck has been removed, meaning the parking sensors would be unable to detect it when in reverse.
The detachable Towbar works alongside most cycle carriers and is ALKO compatible therefore providing plenty of choice when it comes to picking what to tow.
