Rich-smelling leathers, stainless steel accents, and fancy glass and wood trim elements give the 7-series' interior a posh vibe buyers can even choose a new cashmere upholstery option, should it suit their aesthetic. Interior, Comfort, and CargoĪs the pinnacle of the BMW lineup, the 7-series brings a cornucopia of luxuries to its occupants. For more information about the 7-series' fuel economy, visit the EPA's website. When we get a chance to test the 7-series for ourselves, we'll take it on our 75-mph highway fuel-economy test route and report its results here. Fuel Economy and Real-World MPGįuel economy estimates for the 740i are 25 mpg city and 31 mpg highway, but going with the V-8–powered and all-wheel-drive 760i xDrive drops those numbers to 18 mpg city and 26 mpg highway.
BEAMER 7 SERIES UPDATE
We aren't sure yet how big the battery is or any details on how it can be charged, but when we find out we'll update this story with those details. 2023 BMW 7-Series Is an Indulgent Modern MarvelĪlthough the EPA hasn't weighed in yet, BMW claims the 750e xDrive plug-in hybrid should be able to drive for over 35 miles on electricity before the battery is depleted.2023 BMW 760i xDrive Is a Top-Tier Luxury Sedan.As a result, the car feels more agile than its size would suggest but remains more focused on comfort than athleticism. The 7-series comes standard with an air suspension, and BMW has incorporated a rear-wheel steering system and adaptive dampers into the chassis as well. We were able to sample the 760i xDrive and noted its silky operation as well as powerful acceleration. The top-dog 760i xDrive is powered by a 536-hp twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V-8 and comes standard with all-wheel drive this engine also uses a 48-volt hybrid system, and BMW claims it will rip to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds. A plug-in hybrid 750e xDrive is available too and is powered by a 483-hp powertrain consisting of a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six and an electric motor. BMW estimates that the 740i will run to 60 mph in as little as 4.9 seconds. Engine, Transmission, and PerformanceĪ 375-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six is standard-models with this engine are designated 740i-and is assisted by a 48-volt hybrid system rear-wheel drive is standard with this setup but all-wheel drive-which BMW calls xDrive-is optional. An all-electric variant called i7 will be based on the same body shell we review that model separately. If you plan to be chauffeured in your new 7-series, we'd recommend both the Executive Lounge package (power-adjustable reclining rear seats with massage, among other luxuries) and the cool 31.3-inch Theater Screen rear-seat entertainment system which can stream content via the car's on-board Wi-Fi hotspot.
The 740i runs BMW's sweetly silken inline-six and we expect most buyers will find this version more than suitable, but for those wanting extra horsepower, there's the 760i xDrive, which comes with a twin-turbo V-8.
