News about the V12 is reaching the end of its time have been going on for years. Today, BMW confirms that this is true. The carmaker announced that the next-generation BMW 7 Series will be an all-electric version. 

“I can tell you officially today: That our BMW 7 Series flagship will be one of them,” says Oliver Zipse, BMW CEO. “The next-generation 7 Series will be available with four drive train variants: petrol, diesel, plug-in hybrid and fully-electric. All drive trains will be based on a single architecture. And the top, most powerful 7 Series will be fully electric!”

This short statement confirms that BMW is dropping the V12 and will no longer be in the carmaker’s lineup. BMW has been forced to this situation by strict CO2 emission regulation and the overall direction of the company. 

As we say farewell to the V12, let’s look forward to the next most powerful 7 Series that might be powered by a combination of a V8 Twin Turbo and electric motors. There will also be a 7 Series top model tuned by the M Division. Right now it is dubbed as Mi7 but stay tuned for more information!
