Model Preview
The BMW M760i xDrive is an all-new luxury performance sedan for the 2017 model year. It will be the newest addition to the automaker's lineup of M Performance vehicles.
Key specs revolve around a new 12-cylinder M Performance TwinPower Turbo engine. BMW estimates the powerplant will make 600 hp with 590 lb-ft of torque. Furthermore, the automaker says the car will accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in as little as 3.9 seconds. Top speed will be electronically limited to 155 mph. An 8-speed Steptronic transmission with launch control capability will be standard.
Notable styling details include a revised front fascia featuring large air intakes for improved cooling and active grille slats for aerodynamic efficiency. Distinctive 20-inch gray double-spoke wheels are wrapped with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.
Inside the cabin, a next-generation head-up display displays vital system information with 75% more projection area compared to previous versions. The car's infotainment system will be based on BMW's iDrive 5.0 offering touchscreen interaction with voice command as well as standard gesture control. The system debuted with the 2016 7 Series in late 2015 and uses sensors to perform simple tasks like volume adjustment and allow the driver to accept or reject incoming calls.
