BMW 7 F01 F02
The fifth generation of the BMW 7 Series was manufactured and marketed by BMW from 2008 to 2015 in two full-size luxury sedans configurations: F01 (short-wheelbase) and F02 (long-wheelbase) configurations. The fifth generation is informally referred to collectively as the F01. The F01 was the first BMW with a hybrid drivetrain, 8-speed automatic transmission or turbocharged V12 engine. It was the second 7 Series marketed with a turbocharged petrol engine, after the European E23 745i), or all-wheel drive (marketed as xDrive). The wheelbase was increased by 8 cm over the outgoing 7 Series. BMW also marketed an F03 model as the "High Security 7 Series" armoured car as well as an F04 model as a "ActiveHybrid 7" hybrid-electric model. In July 2015, BMW transitioned production from the F01 to the BMW 7 Series (G11).
