The BMW 7 Series.

The central component of the drive train in the hybrid transmission is the electric motor. Within the scope of the hybrid functions and in addition to the 6-cylinder petrol engine the e-drive ensures comfortable, pure electric driving up to 140 km/h. When braking and coasting, the e-drive converts the braking energy into electric energy and stores this in the high-voltage battery.

The new generation BMW TwinPower Turbo 2.0-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine guarantees maximum driving pleasure. It is notable for its agile power delivery as well as for its outstanding responsiveness even at low engine speeds, while also being fuel efficient and low in emissions.

Commanding power, silky-smooth running and a stirring sound are the hallmarks of the BMW TwinPower Turbo inline 6-cylinder petrol engine from the latest generation of the BMW EfficientDynamics engine range. With Double-VANOS, Valvetronic, High-Precision Injection and a TwinScroll turbocharger, it generates 250 kW (340 hp) and has an average combined fuel consumption rate of 7.5 litres per 100 km.

The BMW TwinPower Turbo 8-cylinder petrol engine combines two turbochargers with Valvetronic fully variable valve control and the direct petrol injection High-Precision Injection. It achieves a peak output of 390 kW (530 hp) with a maximum torque of 750 Nm. The two turbochargers are positioned neatly between the cylinder banks.

The M Performance TwinPower Turbo 12-cylinder petrol engine represents drive competence in perfection. The top-of-the-range engine is characterised by superior power delivery and unique running smoothness that can only be achieved with a V12 engine. This character ensures an incomparable driving and travel experience.

Two in perfect harmony: the BMW 7 Series Touring plug-in hybrids BMW 745e, BMW 745Le and BMW 745Le xDrive each combine the BMW eDrive electric drive technology with a powerful BMW combustion engine. Together the two drive units produce a driving experience that links maximum efficiency with supreme driving pleasure – and, depending on the drive mode, either locally emission-free and almost silent or with a thrillingly high torque and sufficient reserves for longer journeys as well.

Purely electric and emission-free on the way to work or powerfully dynamic and with sufficient range for the weekend excursion – the BMW 7 Series Sedan hybrid vehicles 745e, 745Le and 745Le xDrive leave all your options open. Benefit from intelligent driving modes that ensure the optimum interplay of combustion engine and electric motor for every situation.
