Cruising BMW 760Li on Autobahn at Top Speed

Twin-Turbo V12: 544 HP

BMW crafted the 7 Series with the German Autobahn in mind; it’s big, opulent, and boasts a powerful V12 engine on its former models. A new video highlights how effortless it is for a 760Li of the fifth-generation to accomplish its maximum velocity on the renowned roadway.

The BMW 760Li made it a breeze to go beyond the mark of the hundred km/h, since the BMW can hit 250 km/h (155 mph) with almost no trouble. The video also displays multiple instances where the sedan was able to attain such velocity.

The 760Li houses a dual-turbo 6.0L V12 powertrain, which the car manufacturing company retired in their switch to manufacturing eco-friendly hybrids and electric cars. The motor inside the 760Li delivers 544hp and 553lb-ft of torque.

This vehicle wields quite the substantial power, taking total advantage of it to present a drive that’s simply full of ease and style. From a dead halt, the luxury sedan can reach 62 mph in no more than 4.6 seconds; yet you certainly won’t notice any ruckus from this performance, which is evidently true to the BMW image. This type of velocity isn’t merely quick for an automobile, but this kind of ability shines at its most brilliant when traversing roads like the Autobahn. Here it renders a ride that’s unrestricted, flawless and of course with the luxury of not having to worry about the left lane being clogged up.

The footage shown in the video above captures the BMW slowing down a few times as other cars were in its left-hand lane. Nonetheless, they were removed quickly, allowing for the BMW to gain speed again.

Just below a year ago, the seventh instalment of the BMW 7 Series rolled out. At the same time, BMW unveiled the new i7 model in its all-electric version. The two-engine configuration packed quite a punch as it delivered up to 536 horsepower and 549 lb/ft of torque matching the throughput produced by the prior fifth iteration 760Li.

This powerful sedan can reach 60 mph in a remarkable time of 4.5 seconds, offering improved acceleration compared to its predecessor, boosted by its V12 engine. Nevertheless, BMW has restricted the top speed of the EV to 149 mph, meaning that it is unable to compete with the former V12 model on Germany’s iconic highway.
