Luxury is at best intangible… Want to know what makes it tangible? BMW’s new 7-Series!
The German automotive giant is all geared up to launch the most-advanced model in its line-up, the all-new 7-Series. The styling of the car is f***ing pluuush powered by a twin-turbocharged engine producing a mind-boggling 445hp. The four-door sedan bolts (like Usain) from zero to 60 mph in a smashing 3.9 seconds and boasts a top speed of 155 mph. The most frivolous feature of all though, has to be the car’s new Gesture Control, which recognizes five different gestures. Moreover, every single major component in the suspension is adjustable. A self-driving car might be the luxury of tomorrow, but as far as the luxury of today is concerned, the 7-series’ expanded individual program delivers everything you could dream of — stitching, quilting, and piping in matching and contrasting colors.
