It\u2019s only been a couple of months since the 7 Series facelift made a splash at Cannes, and now the updated G70 is appearing at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. This time, it skips the combustion engine in favor of a fully electric powertrain with the i7 M70.<\/p>\n<p>Whereas it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2026\/05\/14\/bmw-7-series-2026-cannes-film-festival\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sat next to an E38<\/a> at the previous event, BMW is taking a different approach in the Czech Republic. The electric M Performance 7 Series is joined by the fifth-generation X5, which debuted earlier this week during a special event at the Spartanburg factory. Like the flagship luxury sedan, the all-new SUV is making its Czech debut, finished in Vancouver Green with 23-inch BMW Individual aero wheels.<\/p>\n<p>The X5 is particularly interesting inside, as BMW is showcasing the luxury SUV with Individual Smoke White leather and a matching steering wheel. Speaking of options, it also features the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2026\/06\/30\/2027-bmw-x5-optional-passenger-screen\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">14.6-inch passenger display<\/a> and slate accents, a first for the automotive industry. Slate trims the center console between the seats, surrounding the crystal glass controls.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/BMW-at-the-2026-Karlovy-Vary-International-Film-Festival-5.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-515268 size-medium\" title=\"BMW AT THE 2026 KARLOVY VARY INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 3\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/BMW-at-the-2026-Karlovy-Vary-International-Film-Festival-5-830x554.jpg\" alt=\"BMW AT THE 2026 KARLOVY VARY INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 5\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>2027 BMW X5 Configurator Goes Live In Czechia<\/p>\n<p>As in many other European countries, the X5 configurator is already live in the Czech Republic. For now, buyers can configure only the 40 xDrive and 40d xDrive. The plug-in hybrid and fully electric variants won\u2019t arrive until early October. Prices start at 2,239,900 K\u010d (about \u20ac92,600) for the diesel and 2,319,200 K\u010d (about \u20ac96,000) for the gas model.<\/p>\n<p>As the official vehicle partner of the 60th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, BMW has brought a much larger fleet to support the event. More than 80 vehicles are on hand, around 35 of them fully electric, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2026\/06\/10\/2026-bmw-ix3-lisbon-photo-shoot\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">new iX3<\/a>. This marks the 12th time the automaker has provided shuttle services, and it has also brought the M5 and X7.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2026\/06\/23\/bmw-displays-customized-m2-models-motogp-race\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">one-off M2<\/a> built to celebrate 20 years since BMW set up shop in the Central European country is also on display. Not everything has four wheels, though. BMW Motorrad is represented by arguably two of its most important motorcycles: the M 1000 R and the M 1000 XR. All the cars and motorcycles are on display in front of the Imperial Spa hotel, where visitors can see them through Saturday, July 11.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Article SummaryBMW is the official car partner of the 60th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.The fifth-generation X5 and&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":48697,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20955],"tags":[23412,6213,33516,23413,31088],"class_list":["post-48696","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-bmw","tag-7-series-g70","tag-bmw","tag-g65","tag-g70","tag-x5-g65"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48696","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48696"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48696\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
