BMW PROTECTION CORE.
The unique BMW Protection Core sees the entire supporting structure for the saloon’s body constructed from armoured steel. Its three-dimensionally engineered elements are all made of exceptionally resistant, hot-formed steel alloys. The BMW Protection Core forms a self-supporting protective cell, which is then combined with protection-spec doors, armouring for the underbody and safety glass.
BMW Protection Command Touch System.
The innovative touch operating concept of the special protection-relevant functions provide increased operating comfort and discreetness.
BMW 20” Alloy Wheels with Runflat function.
The new BMW 7 Series Protection and new BMW i7 Protection are fitted with 20-inch light-alloy wheels, which represents a standout offering in their segments and enables the use of a powerful braking system.
The model-specific light-alloy wheels in star-spoke design are fitted with tyres – supplied by Michelin in the dimensions 255-740 R510 – that have been specifically developed for the protection saloons. The large diameter of these tyres and the extremely high volume of air they hold compared with rivals enhance ride comfort, while the larger contact area benefits traction and driving stability. The PAX tyres have a runflat ring positioned on the wheel rim which allows the car to continue its journey at up to 50 mph even in the event of a total loss of pressure.
BMW Pennant Holder.
The new BMW 7 and i7 Protection can be equipped with BMW Pennant Holders if the car is required for official duty, available for both sides.
BMW Flashing lights and beacons.
The removable blue beacons can be ordered with audible warning signals (Authorities Sales only). In addition, blue and red flashing lights are available for the front and the rear as well as blue flashing lights for the mirrors or the side.

BMW Effortless Door.
Doors can be opened and closed immediately after unlocking the car reducing the force required to open or close the armoured doors. Also unique in this segment is a function that enables occupants to close the doors automatically at the touch of a button after entering the vehicle.
BMW Integral Active Steering.
The new BMW 7 Series Protection and new BMW i7 Protection are the first and only protection vehicles in their segments to be fitted with Integral Active Steering. This rear-wheel steering functionality not only reduces the car’s turning circle by approximately one metre when manoeuvring, it also increases precision and the dynamic response. Another key attribute of Integral Active Steering is its comfort enhancing ability for rear-seat passengers.
BMW Parking Assistant Plus.
The highly advanced sensors provide precise and detailed information on the area around the vehicle in all situations. The requisite data and images are supplied by e.g. the Parking View, Panorama View, Remote 3D View and BMW Drive Recorder functions included in the Parking Assistant Plus package. Also on-hand are the alert functions of the front-collision warning, Crossroads Warning, Lane Departure Warning and Speed Limit Info systems.

Contour line lighting impressively showcases the BMW Kidney ‘Iconic Glow’. This feature can also be deactivated.
