Car Buyer's Guide

Overview

The BMW 7 Series (G70) is a five-seat luxury sedan for buyers who want a large BMW with petrol plug-in hybrid drive rather than a fully electric car. In Malaysia, the range starts at RM677,800 with the 750e xDrive M Sport, using a 2,998 cc engine and conventional automatic gearbox.

7 Series in 2026 — what's new

For 2026, the G70 facelift brings Panoramic iDrive to the 7 Series. The Malaysian range here remains simple: one 750e xDrive M Sport plug-in hybrid, following this generation’s 2023 launch. Separate Protection versions have also appeared in recent coverage, including armoured G70 models with VPAM classification, but those are not the regular showroom 750e xDrive M Sport.

Verdict

The G70 7 Series is a focused buy in Malaysia because the range is down to one plug-in hybrid variant. It costs more than the Mercedes-Benz EQS from RM648,888 and Jaguar XJ from RM658,491, but less than the BMW i7 from RM714,800. The case for it is straightforward: a luxury sedan with petrol-electric running and xDrive, without going fully electric.
