BMW 740Li First Drive Review

By Sagar Bhanushali19 Jul 2017

The latest 7 Series, which arrived at the showrooms last year, is the sixth-gen model and takes the mantle as BMW’s flagship car. Quite simply, the 730Ld that we tested earlier is perhaps the most impressive among all the full-fat luxury sedans when it comes to comfort and efficiency. The petrol-powered 740Li, however, is a different beast – it’s as sumptuous and extravagant as the 730Ld but it’s got the firepower to hang out with cars like the Porsche Boxster and even the entry-level 911. This makes it a good choice for those looking for a comfy limousine with sports-car like acceleration. More on this later…
