The cabin adds new screens and digital features, including a passenger display in every version and a large screen for rear-seat passengers.
The first versions include one petrol and three electric models; diesel, plug-in hybrid and high-performance versions are due to join later.
The electric i7 50 xDrive has a claimed WLTP range of 728 kilometres, while its South Korean certified range is 508 kilometres.
Prices start at 161.9 million won, with the highest listed price at 235 million won, including VAT.
