BMW put the 7 Series through an extensive facelift that included a revised exterior look, fresh technology and updated powertrains With a new V-8 engine being offered in the 750i trim.

The BMW 750 has easy ingress and egress, things that can be attributed to the low-side sills and wide door openings. In the rear, there’s ample legroom, which facilitates entering the rear with ease as well. The driver’s seat offers a number of adjustments that make it impossible not to find the right position with you, which is also assisted by the telescoping steering wheel. Front passengers, in general, have plenty of space, and forward visibility is good.

Simply driving the 7 Series is dreamy. The cabin is so quiet that it’s easy to forget there’s a world-circling around you, and the adaptive suspension system was so good. Most normal road imperfections are swallowed up at the damper level and rarely make it into the cabin. The overall comfort of the seats really helps here, the front heating and cooling functions work amazing, but we’d avoid using the massage function on long drives – it can be almost too relaxing.

Power, straight-line performance, braking, shifting – these all get an A+. That 4.4-liter V-8 engine pumps out 530 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque, and you can feel every single bit of it. there’s practically zero hesitation, and we managed getting to 100 km/h in just under 3.8 seconds As a car that tiptoes on the line between luxury and ultra-luxury, you don’t expect so much capability, but the 750i is almost hard to drive at simple highway speeds – at least until you get used to it, anyway. Pushing beyond the speed limit is, literally, effortless, and if you’re not careful, you’ll find yourself staring at triple-digit speeds by accident.

The gear changes seamlessly and unnoticeably, and the steering feels perfectly weighted at speed. Low-speed steering is just as impressive, and it seems as if BMW has nailed the tuning for low-speed maneuvers – a major plus when trying to park a sedan this large in crowded parking lots. It will turn corners quickly but feels very loose in doing so. It never seems to lose stability, maybe helped by its 4,722-pound curb weight.

By going with the 750i, you’ll also find a pure powerhouse under the hood – one that displaces 4.4-liters and pumps out 530 horsepower to go with 553 pound-feet of torque. Make no mistake; there is ample power and torque here. The smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission sends power to all four wheels.

As far as rear passengers are concerned, they might end up being happier than anyone who sits in the front. The rear seat is admirably comfortable. You can use Apply CarPlay.
