BMW i7 ‘Singapore Icons’ is a unique SG60 automotive tribute to the Lion City
BMW Asia and Eurokars Auto commemorate Singapore’s 60th birthday with an electric limousine that is one of a kind.
The BMW i7 ‘Singapore Icons SG60 1 of 1’ also marks the 40th year of BMW Asia and the 133rd anniversary of Kwong Cheong Thye Pte Ltd, whose boss Mr Choo Wai Luen bought the one-off vehicle to celebrate the success of his homegrown soya-sauce company, which was founded in 1892.
The price for this SG60 commemorative car was $753,888 with COE valid till SG70.
Lars Nielsen, managing director of BMW Group Asia, said at the unveiling of the special limousine: “This luxurious piece of art celebrates the icons that define Singapore and embodies pride and passion for a country that has accomplished so much in its short but successful history.”
The electric sedan’s celebratory Singaporean elements start with the Madeira Red paintwork, a BMW Individual colour from the Rolls-Royce Motor Cars palette. The i7 special edition also sports the “Singapore Icons” logo laser-etched onto each C-pillar Hofmeister kink.
Inside the Smoke White Merino leather cabin fit for presidents national or corporate are custom-stitched headrests in Alaska Grey with “Singapore Icons” embroidery.
Proudly providing the “Majulah Singapura” moment is the dashboard panel’s meaningful metallic inlay.
The motif features seven distinctive local landmarks (because 7 Series) that identify the mighty little red dot - Changi Airport (control tower), Gardens by the Bay (Supertree Grove), Singapore Flyer, Marina Bay Sands, Anderson Bridge, Merlion Park, and ArtScience Museum.
Mr Choo, the Singaporean driving the BMW i7 ‘Singapore Icons’, said: “Every time I look at this masterpiece, I'm reminded of how far we have come as a nation and how far my family and I have come in building our business. It represents something special to us, to BMW, and our country.”
