BMW 7 Series Engines and Transmissions

The BMW 7 Series engine range spans frugal diesels, smooth petrol sixes and a plug-in hybrid, all paired with automatic transmissions. The 725Ld 2.0 AT drives the rear wheels only, while the 740Li 3.0 AT xDrive and 740Le iPerformance 2.0 AT xDrive send power through an all-wheel-drive drivetrain.

BMW 7 Series Trims and Equipment

BMW 7 Series trim levels sit on top of the mechanical version rather than replacing it. The 740d 3.0 AT xDrive Sedan, a diesel with all-wheel drive, appears in equipment configurations listed as 730d xDrive and 740d xDrive M Sport, the latter indicating a sportier exterior and interior treatment.

BMW 7 Series Battery

BMW 7 Series battery capacity matters most for short electric commutes and quiet city running. The 740Le iPerformance 2.0 AT xDrive and the rear-wheel-drive 740Le iPerformance 2.0 AT both store energy in a lithium-ion battery, replenished from a socket or while driving, then blend electric drive with the petrol engine.
