BMW 7 Series Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2005–2009)

BMW 7 Series Engines and Transmissions

Each BMW 7 Series engine drives the rear wheels through an automatic transmission, so the differences lie mainly in character. The 730i 3.0 petrol and 730Ld 3.0 diesel suit long-distance economy, while the 760i 6.0 petrol powertrain trades frugality for effortless, quiet acceleration.

BMW 7 Series Trims and Equipment

BMW 7 Series trim levels sit on top of the technical version rather than replacing it: the 740Li 4.0 AT in Sedan Long form appears under equipment configurations such as 740iA and 750iA SE. Check each car's actual specification, since options varied widely between individual examples.
