The official reveal of BMW’s brand-new 7-Series takes place this evening in Germany at 6:50PM CEST or 12:50 PM EST noon in North America, and you can watch the event live in the video feed we’ve added below.
We’ll quickly remind you that a number of leaks in the past few months, including one today with the first batch of official images, have given us a good idea of where BMW is taking the next 7-Series.
We also know that the Germans have made efforts to significantly reduce their flagship’s weight by as much as 200 kg or 440 pounds through the extensive use of CFRP (carbon-fiber reinforced plastic) in the body and passenger cell, together with a blend of aluminum and high-strength steel elsewhere.
Watch the live transmission after the jump and check back later for the full release.
