The 760i is currently BMW\u2019s only V8-powered version of the 2023 7 Series. Sadly, we won\u2019t be seeing it in Europe as the company has already ruled out this 544-horsepower spicy flavor. Those quad exhaust tips are exclusive to the 760i since the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/04\/20\/2023-bmw-m760e-xdrive-reveal\/\">M760e<\/a> has a slightly different look with separate finishers.\u00a0Available exclusively with xDrive, the 760i uses a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 engine. With an ample 750 Nm (551 lb-ft), it needs 4.2 seconds to reach 62 mph (100 km\/h) from a standstill.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-425488\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"bmw 7 series kentucky derby 00 830x553\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of bmw 7 series kentucky derby 00 830x553\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-425488\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20553%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"bmw 7 series kentucky derby 00 830x553\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bmw-7-series-kentucky-derby-00.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of bmw 7 series kentucky derby 00 830x553\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The 2023 BMW i7 share the exterior design with the 760i while having a nearly identical cabin. Compared to the 760i we mentioned earlier, the electric saloon gets the now-traditional blue accents we associate with i-badged BMWs. The BMW i7 xDrive60 is powered by dual electric motors, made using no rare earth materials at all. Maximum power output is 536 horsepower and 549 lb-ft of torque, which gives it the same horsepower as the BMW 760i V8 model.<\/p>\n<p>According to BMW, 0-60 mph happens in 4.5 seconds and the i7 has a top speed of 149 mph.\u00a0Those two electric motors, which provide torque-vectoring all-wheel drive, get their energy from a 101.7 kWh (usable) battery pack, which is said to be capable of up to 300 miles of range. That range figure is a BMW-estimated figure, based on EPA testing procedures.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at the video below to learn more about the cars:<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"BMW 7 Series and i7 Design and Technology Overview\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/N3A3kxbQCvE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\">[embedded content]<\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[embedded content] ADVERTISEMENT The first public showcase of the new BMW 7 Series and i7 sedans took place last weekend at the Churchill Downs Racetrack in Louisville, Kentucky.
