The brand-new BMW 7 Series made its world premiere earlier this summer, and has had the automotive world abuzz with its truly revolutionary innovations and ground-breaking technology.

And while all the exciting new gadgetry there is to be had behind the wheel of the new 7 Series has somewhat eclipsed our excitement when it comes to the vehicle's exterior styling, upon closer inspection, our Nashville readers are sure to behold an absolutely stunning, immaculately crafted luxury sedan that puts beauty on a pedestal.

In this BMW of Nashville blog post, we want to highlight the design of the new 7 series. It's fairly clear from the outset that this 7 series will likely occupy a very special space in BMW's history, as a luxury sedan with an elegant, forward-thinking style that has lost nothing of its unmistakable BMW character and timelessness.

Take a look at a recently conducted interview with Senior VP of BMW Group Design, Adrian van Hooydonk, and get a glimpse into the creative thinking that went behind the new 7's design.
