Introduced at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, the M760Li xDrive is now being given an airing by BMW again which has released new images and videos of its most expensive car. How pricey? Well, it starts from €168,090 (RM800,000) in Germany and US$153,800 (RM681,000) in the States.
The 6.6-litre V12 develops output of 610hp at 5,500 rpm and peak torque of 800Nm at 1,550rpm and helps deliver a combined fuel consumption rated at 12.8 litres per 100km.
This also accelerates the BMW M760Li xDrive from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds on the way to an electronically limited top speed of 250kph.
If the optional M Driver’s Package is specified, the speed limiter doesn’t cut in until 305kph.
V12 goodness.
Power transfer is via the state-of-the-art eight-speed Steptronic Sport transmission as standard.
Its innovative Executive Drive Pro suspension system has active roll stabilisation that minimises body movements, combined with a rear-biased BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive system and new 19-inch M Sport brakes.
The system teams up with performance tyres, fitted to exclusive 20-inch M light-alloy wheels in matt Cerium Grey metallic, to give the new BMW M760Li xDrive the best driving dynamics in its class – without impinging on ride comfort.
The extensive package of innovative driver assistance systems includes the Steering and lane control assistant, Lane keeping assistant with active side collision protection, Rear collision prevention and Crossing traffic warning functions.
Meanwhile, the Traffic jam assistant – which involves semi-automated driving – can be used on any type of road.
And the Active Cruise Control with Stop&Go function now only requires drivers to press a button to incorporate speed restrictions detected by the Speed Limit Info function.
The new generation of the Surround View system now also includes a 3D View and Panorama View option in the Control Display.
As in all variants of the new BMW 7 Series, the monitor of the iDrive operating system in the new range-topping BMW M760Li xDrive comes in touch display.
This means customers will be able to navigate around the system in the same way as with modern electronic devices.
The iDrive system also features the gesture control system presented in the BMW 7 Series for the first time.
Hand movements detected by a 3D sensor control infotainment functions in an extremely intuitive fashion.
The gestures can be used for a number of functions, including controlling the volume in audio applications and accepting or rejecting incoming telephone calls.
