We also did a short video live at the launch:

It’s important to note that only the BMW 740Li will be the main model to be sold in the Philippines and only a handful of the flagship model BMW 750Li will become available for purchase.

There were no local pricing announced for the two luxury vehicles, but if you’re interested in getting one, you may inquire directly.
