BMW i7 and 7 Series Protection

December 10, 2023
In the realm of cutting-edge automotive security, the latest offerings from BMW set an unparalleled standard. The BMW i7 Protection and the new BMW 7 Series Protection, both born from the innovative platform of the new BMW 7 Series, seamlessly marry an unmatched protection concept with superior ride comfort, advanced equipment features, and the exceptional dynamic prowess BMW is renowned for globally.
 
At the forefront of security technology, the BMW i7 Protection claims the title of the world's first-ever protection sedan with an all-electric drive system. Driven by two powerful electric motors, it not only meets but exceeds all requirements of class VR9 protection without any compromises. On the other hand, the new combustion-engine BMW 7 Series Protection doesn't lag behind, offering robust protection with its powerful V8 engine.
 
The integrated security concept, centered around the groundbreaking BMW Protection Core, ensures the highest levels of protection for at-risk individuals. These models are set to debut at the IAA Mobility 2023 international motor show in Munich, with deliveries commencing in December 2023.
 
In terms of protection, both vehicles are classified as offering class VR9 protection, meeting the stringent criteria set by Germany's Vereinigung der Prüfstellen für Angriffshemmende Materialien und Konstruktionen (Association of Test Laboratories for Attack-Resistant Materials and Constructions – VPAM). From ballistic resistance to blast resistance, these vehicles are designed to safeguard occupants against a spectrum of threats, including fire from calibre 7.62x54 R ammunition.
 
The innovative protection concept features the unique BMW Protection Core, a self-supporting body structure made from armor steel. This not only ensures maximum protection but also contributes to the spaciousness, lower weight, and sharper agility of the vehicles. The BMW i7 Protection, being the first all-electric model in its protection category, combines outstanding security with zero tailpipe emissions, showcasing BMW's commitment to sustainable mobility.
 
Under the hood, the BMW i7 Protection boasts an all-electric powertrain, delivering supreme performance with a combined output of up to 400 kW/544 hp and maximum torque of 745 Newton meters. The combustion-engine BMW 7 Series Protection, powered by a latest-generation V8 unit, generates a formidable 390 kW/530 hp and peak torque of 750 Nm.
 
The chassis technology, modified for these protection models, ensures assured performance, even considering the additional weight from their special protection features. The Integral Active Steering, a unique feature in the segment, enhances maneuverability and driving comfort.
 
Equipped with a comprehensive suite of driver assistance systems, the new BMW i7 Protection and BMW 7 Series Protection prioritize providing information and warnings to support professional chauffeurs. The interior is a blend of comfort and exclusivity, featuring options like a cool box, Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System, and motorized assistance for door operations.
 
For those seeking personalization, a broad range of exterior and interior options is available, allowing customers to tailor these protection sedans according to their preferences. The latest BMW iDrive system, based on BMW Operating System 8.5, ensures intuitive control, including model-specific security functions.
 
BMW i7 Protection and BMW 7 Series Protection redefine the standards for protection vehicles, offering a harmonious blend of security, sustainability, and dynamic performance. For those in Dubai seeking used BMWs for sale or exploring the BMW market in Dubai, these models represent the epitome of automotive excellence.
