Is the BMW 7 Series domestically produced?
2 Answers
BMW 7 Series is not domestically produced. Here are the relevant details: Introduction to BMW 7 Series: The BMW 7 Series is an imported car. The body style of the BMW 7 Series is a 4-door sedan, and the drive configuration is front-engine, rear-wheel drive. The BMW 7 Series is only produced in Germany, manufactured by BMW, and replaced the previous model, BMW New Six, in 1977. BMW 7 Series Engine: The BMW 7 Series is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline 4-cylinder engine, a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline 6-cylinder engine, and a 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, corresponding to the 730Li, 740Li, and 750Li models respectively, with maximum power outputs of 258 horsepower, 340 horsepower, and 530 horsepower.
As an ordinary owner who often drives high-end cars, I think the BMW 7 Series indeed has a domestically produced version manufactured in China. The BMW Brilliance joint venture produces it at the Shenyang plant, specifically tailored for the Chinese market, offering significant price advantages compared to the imported version. I previously tried the long-wheelbase version of the domestic 7 Series—the space is very spacious, especially suitable for family use, and the suspension tuning is quite comfortable, with driving performance almost indistinguishable from the imported version. Choosing the domestic model can save a lot on taxes and transportation costs, and maintenance parts are easier to find. Supporting the local economy is a good thing, but remember to buy from official channels to avoid issues with small workshops. Overall, localization has lowered the threshold for more people to enjoy luxury brands, and market feedback has been positive, with sales consistently high. When buying a car, it's good to compare configurations to see what suits your needs—don’t blindly follow trends, as it’s a big investment after all.
